Because Easter Sunday is on 3/31, a lot of schools are extending Spring Break through Monday. My high school aged daughter and one of my college aged sons don't return to school until Tuesday. They are both happy to be attending Opening Day instead.

I know. The school where I student taught last year has that Monday off, but not the school where I work. Bummer.

I wonder why. Easter always is on Sunday.

Probably to accomodate folks who are going out of town for Spring Break -- so they don't have to travel back home or to school on Easter Sunday.

Totally agree. I'm fine with the 3PM start. You can take a half day at work or if you end up taking a full day off, you don't need to get to the ballpark early in the morning to get a decent parking spot. For those of us that live far from the park, the 3PM start is most welcome.

Seeing Koch strike out the side is something not many White Sox fans got to experience so you should feel blessed. |

As for Koch, it was opening day, he was the new closer, he had seen success with Oakland, and although he had a bad outing in Kansas City before coming home, we believed this was what we were going to see in 2003. |

The Joe Crede grand slam game, right?
Funny how you have small memories of each Opener. Oddly, I can't remember much about the last two. 2003 - Rain delay, Loaiza got the start. 2004 ? 2005 Opener vs. Cleveland, Infield hit by Rowand?, Ross Gload stab & Shingo save 2006 - Opening Night, Rain, Thome Bomb 2007 - Contreras' wife serves him divorce papers and the Sox get destroyed 2008 - Crede slam (vs. Minn or Detroit? can't remember) 2009 - Rescheduled game due to snow, Wise gets booed out of the park for leading off, Thome homer 2010 - Buehrle start, Konerko homer, great Rios catch 2011 - Cold day, Edwin Jackson pitches a good game 2012 - ? I'm getting old. |
