I road the bus to school back in 2007. I got off the bus on a sunny afternoon day in April, sprinting inside and down the stairs into my basement. I fired up the old school big screen TV we had. Not a flat screen TV, but one of those box big screen TVs that took up pretty much the entire basement.
Once the TV was glowing, I flipped to the Royals game. It was Opening Day. The game started at 3:10 PM, so I hadn’t missed a whole lot. I watched the Royals beat a Red Sox team that would go on to win the World Series that year.
