The baseball season is finally here and with that fantasy baseball season has finally started.

After weeks of drafting, looking at projections and making speculations, you now have the chance to see your hard work pay off on the virtual field.

I was fairly successful in my first week with my teams, but there is always room to bolster your lineup. Be sure to check the waiver wire for some potential steals. Here are a couple that could be available in your leagues:

If you all can endure one more opinion piece about the Living Learning Communities, let this one be it. I think we can all agree that the overwhelming backlash received was uncalled for, and that it was largely because of misrepresentation in the media. The truth be told, the DiversCity Q LLC welcomed anyone and everyone who was interested, and the majority of participants are allies (heterosexual supporters) looking for a way to show support and get involved.

President Barack Obama's proposed 2010 budget would create mandatory funding and increases for Pell grants and replace subsidized loans made by private banks with direct government lending, a university official said.

Richard Phillips from Somali pirates after President Barack Obama authorized lethal force if Phillips looked to be in imminent danger. It was an order that was praised by many and criticized by few.

The women's tennis team will close out the regular season at home Friday when they take on No. 5 Baylor.

The Horned Frogs (13-9, 7-1 Mountain West Conference) will bring a six-match winning streak into the match.

"They're one of the best teams in the country," said head coach Jefferson Hammond. "They're loaded from top to bottom. We're going to have to play our very best tennis to beat them. It's possible, we're capable and we just have to come out and really play."

In one of the top headlines of the week, President Barack Obama finally fulfilled his campaign promise to his daughters and welcomed a new dog into the family.

News broadcasts, Web sites and even the blogosphere are on full blast about the newest Obama in the White House. One headline proclaimed, "The wait is over."
