You gotta credit the Toronto Blue Jays: for once, they're actually treating their fans to a meaningful September.

We won’t pronounce the 2009 Toronto Blue Jays dead…yet. But if the team’s going to accomplish anything this season—and even if they aren’t—then this is going to be a big week.

Opening Day is cause for celebration; it's a blank slate and a fresh beginning, the one day on the Major League Baseball calendar when everybody's on the level and when anything seems possible. And while it's likely to be a long year for Toronto baseball fans, that won't diminish the sense of occasion inside Rogers Centre tomorrow evening.

                    

Torontoist is ending the year by naming our Heroes and Villains of 2008--the people, places, and things that we've either fallen head over heels in love with or developed uncontrollable rage towards over the past twelve months, with one hero and one villain selected by each participating staff member. On Christmas Day: the heroes. On Boxing Day: the villains. And next week, cast your vote to determine the Superhero and Supervillain of the year.
