TORONTO - There has never been a home opener like this one.
Not the one played in the snow and the cold of Exhibition Stadium 39 years ago.
Not the one played before the Blue Jays won their first World Series or the one played after the second one.
Not the first one at SkyDome or the last one at the Ex.
Not when Roger Clemens pitched or Roy Halladay pitched or Dave Stieb pitched.
This is new and different — real and spectacular — this fawning over the Blue Jays, in Toronto and across Canada.
