I have a sinking feeling that we're going to have a Yankees/Marlins World Series. That would be almost as bad as Yankees/Braves. I still can't believe that Cubs game last night. What a bunch of . . . well, Cubs. Typical.

Last night I was convinced that a $10 bill I had was counterfeit. It just didn't look or feel right somehow--it seemed a little oversized, and some of the ink was kinda running. But I had to pay for supper, so I went ahead and gave it to the pizza guy. I hope he didn't get fired over it; he was all excited about my being his first customer in his new job. Sucker.

Let's call the rest of the work week off, shall we?

Yeah, that booted double play was a typical Cubs move. Will someone tell them it's not the '80s anymore? Yeesh.

"Let's call the rest of the work week off, shall we?"

That sounds fabulous. Instead of calling in sick, I'll call out "Yeah, I won't be coming in today. I have to ROCK!!!" They will understand my need to rock and all will be well.

It sure as hell won't be the Red Sux in the Series. They are playing like retarded monkeys.

I only checked in on that game periodically after the seventh ("Law and Order" was on, dude), and had a horrible sense of unreality when I dropped in at the ninth.
Watching the replays on the final innings is not unlike being kicked in the stomach. A lot.
Is it too trendy to be completely sick of New York?

Totally. In the back of my mind I was thinking, "So, how are they going to blow it?" And then I saw--"Oh, so THIS is how they're gonna do it!"

Excellent idea. No boss worth a damn would turn down that excuse. Rock 'n' roll uber alles!

Watching the eigth inning of that game live was like seeing a horrible accident in slow-mo. Brutal, I tell ya.

And HELL no, it ain't too trendy to be sick of New York! The city I love, but their sports teams can go straight to hell straight to hell goddamnit with a side o' cole slaw by god.

The Marlins just finished off the Cubs. Whose brilliant idea was it to have Billy Corgan sing during the 7th inning stretch at Wrigley? A team's got a Billy-Goat curse on them that's kept them from winning the world series for 95 years and they bring in a Billy, whose pseudonym includes 'Goat', to sing during the deciding game.

The curse is there either way, I guess.

Egad, I think you're on to something here. History will blame the poor wretch who tried to catch that foul ball, but WE know it's all the fault of that Uncle Fester wannabe from the Smashing Pumpkins.
