Happy Truck Day!
Did you remember that it was Truck Day today? Or was something else on your mind?
In the list on meaningful meaningless holidays, Truck Day tops the list.
On the one hand, it is the most important day on the baseball calendar. Baseball Stuff is Starting! The team is officially preparing for the upcoming season! The long dreary winter is over. The boys of summer are on their way back!
On the other hand, it's a day where a truck is loaded. Players are already working out in Florida. I presume they're not throwing imaginary baseballs. I presume they don't really need anything that was loaded onto the truck. And, if they did, it won't get there for a couple days anyway.
It's also quite a ways before any real baseball. Pitchers and catchers report in a week or so. But, even that is just the start of workouts. Games won't begin until after that. And those aren't real games. It's just baseball to pass the time before real baseball starts.
But, today is the start of all of it. The truck is on its way.
Baseball is Coming.
