April 6, 200422 yr Not to complain, but does anyone else think its weird that the Sox have to open in KC, then go to NY and sit through yet another home opener there, then finally open at home against KC who they already played the week before? This doesn't seem right that they have to be put through the opening day excitement 3 times. At least have their's first, not last. What do you guys think?

That is why it happens every year. They want to push off of the home opener as long as possible to try to get better odds for good weather in Chicago.

April 6, 200422 yr I know this is going to sound completely retarded, but I'd like to see the Sox open the year on the West Coast. Every year it's either in the Midwest, Texas, or Toronto. If we're gonna get our brains beat in by the Oaklands, Seattles, & Anaheims, let's get 'em out of the way early.
April 6, 200422 yr at least we are done with NY early and dont have to play em during the streach like last year
April 6, 200422 yr The last time we started with a tough stetch like this, was inthe 2000 season, we opened with 10 games on the road, travelled all over the US, and had to play 7 games vs. the AL West, who we were terrible against.... The sox lost the first two games that year, The first game losing to Ismeal Valdes ,...... They ended up winning 6 of the next 8 and returned home with loads of confidence that they road throughout the entire season... I say Bring it on,

I think that they play the same teams roughly the same amount of times each season and that they need to play their ass off regadless of where they are playing or who.
