"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

By the way...
...congratulations to the San Francisco Giants for their (sob!) commanding victory over the Detroit Tigers.
During their early years the Mets had a great sign guy in their audience. He had a sign for almost everything After the first Met's pitch of the season he would drag out his "Wait until next year" sign.
Much as I wanted the Tigers to win, I'm glad Bochy got the monkey off his back from the Padres being swept by the hated Yankees in '98.

ReplyDeletePrety much got the monkey off of his back in 2010 when they won the World Series. Giants-Cards-Giants in the last three.
A sweep? Are you friggin' kidding me? Don't you guys know how much money you just lost MLB? Not to mention YOUR 10 grand per game bonuses...
ReplyDeleteSheesh.
Wait till next year!
ReplyDeleteOh, wait. I think Cubs fans have a copyright on that. Sorry.
Mojo,
ReplyDeletePlayers only get bonus money for the first four games played. Kinda to discourage such hanky-panky.
