Remember when Truck Day was a guaranteed thread of joy and celebrations. A thing to look forward to as the sun rises on a new baseball season. Instead today we have gnashing of teeth and hand wringing over Mookie's truck being packed up.
Doesn't matter though, I'll still be tuned into the games via MLB.TV as often as possible as soon as the chalk lines are dry for opening day. I'm a guy rooting for laundry, and if I can survive Boggs on a horse, Clemens doing his Bruce Banner impression in pinstripes, Nomar and Pedro finishing careers elsewhere.... I can survive this. Mookie is obviously one of the most fun players in the game to watch and it'll suck to not see him in our lineup, but I can appreciate talented players on other teams on days they aren't playing the Sox.
