this left blank on because nothing else
needs to be said.

So does this mean Obama isn’t watching the world series (being a dirty communist and all)? Oh wait, he must be watching since he said he’s cheering for the Phillies…I mean Rays…or was it the Phillies? I guess it depends on what state he’s in tonight! LOL!!

I am studying for a midterm (ugh). On computer architecture (UGH). And I go to school in Philly, so I should be at a bar somewhere cheering ([scream of agony]).

There, I said it. I didn’t want to say it, but it had to be said.

People will come, Ray. They’ll come to Iowa for reasons they can’t even fathom. They’ll turn up your driveway, not knowing for sure why they’re doing it. They’ll arrive at your door, innocent as children, longing for the past. The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It’s been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game, is a part of our past, Ray. It reminds us of all that once was good, and that could be again. Oh, people will come, Ray. People will most definitely come.
– Terrence Mann, from the film Field of Dreams

Plus how can you not get choked up when he asks his Dad to play catch?

Two reasons, I like ice and we get to take it away from the Canadians. Eh I’m a chick I have a pass anyway.

Not everybody gets it.

Too bad for them.

Sure baseball has a certain quaint, nostalgic appeal. I can download a database, cook a meal, eat it, do the laundry, and still see most of the action in an average game just by looking up whenever I hear the crowd.

Let’s face it, it’s a pretty boring sport by today’s standards. Sure it can be fun when the games really mean something, like during the playoffs, but 160 games in the season is just way too much.

Football, especially college football is the real sport of excitement, hard hitting action, and deep strategy.

If Obama gets elected, he will do everything in his power to make soccer (but will force Americans to call it “futbal’) as America’s pastime so that the rest of the world likes us again. Because God knows how much they loved us when Carter and Clinton were in the Oval Office.

Voting for Obama so that the rest of the world will like Americans again is like the NY Yankees deciding to not sign a big name player so that Red Sox fans will like them again.

Please, please, please let their be a game 6 so that Obamoron can delay its start with his 1/2 hour propaganda show.

They didn’t have Joe Biden comment on this because he would have said…”My dad & I used to watch Babe Ruth play ball on ESPN. He was a great player and my favorite game was when the Babe beat Mark McGuire’s home run record.”

Seriously, it is about as entertaining as watching paint dry.

You don’t like baseball = a deep seated sympathy for communists. It is a proven fact, look it up! (tongue in cheek). Although, if you are a Cub fan, there might be a question regarding your IQ. (South side White Sox fan opinion).

I want this series to only go five games so that The One will not hook all of those people who tune in to watch Game Six into his 1/2 hour propaganda manifesto.

P.S. – - being a Mariners fan I have to go with Philly this time for the sake of one of my all time favorite players, Jamie Moyer.
