I've always enjoyed watching Cubs games. When I was a kid we didn't have cable TV but my grandmother did. When I spent the summer with her I'd try to catch Cubs games on WGN - I liked Harry Carey and Wrigley Field looked great in the summer sun (on TV of course).

And I was playing little league baseball when the Mets came on so strong in the 80s and naturally gravitated towards them because my uncle and cousin were always rooting for them.

But after such a long hiatus from the game the only team I feel any tug of loyalty to is Cleveland. Harry's gone from the Cubbies and the Mets are .... well, the Mets. I feel like I've got an almost blank slate now.

Maybe I'll follow the Nationals for a while, see how that goes. Dunno.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to this season. Bring on the hot dogs and peanuts and beer and cigars!!!

I would follow the team(or teams) you grew up watching. They would probably be more exciting and meaningful to watch and follow

And yeah, bring on the sausages, beer, dogs, and cigars!!
