All Hell Breaks Loose on Opening Day, Adam Dunn Loves Us

After all the hype of yesterday, all the new worries with impending new ownership, about Carlos Zambrano's new contract, and everything else new about the Cubs yesterday. Everyone forgot how much Adam Dunn loves to play the Cubs. Channeling a long line of Hall of Famers, Roberto Clemente, Mike Schmidt come to mind first as Cub-killers, Adam Dunn drove two pitches out of the park in two at bats.

The Cubs lost 5-2, but I'm not on the ledge yet. I saw things that I liked, and I also know that it was just one game. Carlos didn't do so hot, neither did most of the hitters, but it will come. Cincinnati always looks like a team of world beaters the first few weeks of the season, then they return to the same team that hasn't done anything since way back when Lou managed them.
