Well, whose idea was this to start baseball in March and have opening day April 2nd?

0:07.2

That's a little early, isn't it?

0:08.6

No, it's not.

0:09.7

Oh, well, March was a little early.

0:11.6

Well, opening day is canceled.

0:12.9

Do you remember it was about four weeks ago?

0:16.1

I said, this is the last snow.

0:17.7

We're never going to have any more snow.

0:19.4

And then we've had the North Easter every week since, including today. And believe it or not, do not say this is the last one. I know I won't. This is not a Nor Easter, by the way. Nor Easter means a lot of winds. This is actually not much of anything here in the city. Nothing is sticking on the ground except on grass, but on the streets.

1:10.7

So it's tomorrow at 4 o'clock and the box office will be open all day. You can get refunds or exchanges or whatever that is. So, and the Mets play, they play tonight. Uh, 7-10 is a game time. Uh, they should be able to clean it up by then, I think. Yeah, you can clean it up, but the thing is, how do they dry it?

1:28.7

I mean, that ground crew is so, you know, they come out with those rakes and what, they got like big blow dryer things. Like, they have technology, yeah. Yeah, they've probably got some kind of big dryers they can dry the grass up. So by tonight, and it'll be warm by tonight. It'll be in the 50s this week. So whatever snow you have will be melting within the next couple of hours.
