We can actually open at Pittsburgh only as the front half of the Monday Night DH. Pirates on the road 9/10.

They seem to do something like that every game that we play them, especially in prime time , which is a smart move. Mike Brown's halftime show for Monday night will be that dog that rides the monkey , which was last popular at Crosley field in the 40's

I agree that we play the Steelers at least once in the first four weeks and probably Baltimore, also.

At least it's something football related to hold my interest.

I'd like to see us open at the LA Chargers, that way we can get our 1 West Coast road game out of the way early.

Where do some of you think we will open 2018?
