The Boys of Summer
Baseball is back, and I'm glad. I don't really much care about any other sport. Football bores me. It also confuses me. I once was able to follow what John Madden traced with his light pen, which was one of the most profoundly frightening moments of my life. That thing is freaky.
Basketball is only exciting in the last quarter, and I don't want to sit through an entire game to watch the last 15 minutes. Not to mention that those "15 minutes" can take more like a half-hour. Besides, watching guys run around in tank tops and shorts just isn't as much fun for me as watching them run around in tight shirts and pants.
Speaking of watching guys run around in tight shirts and pants, the only sport to have this guy is baseball:

Yay baseball!

And if you want proof that at this time of the year anything can truly happen, the Detroit Tigers are 4-0. Last year it took them 7 games to get a lead.

Not to be obnoxious or anything (ok, I'm being obnoxious), but by the time you get around to updating the Blog, they'll be the Boys of Winter! :)

I have a question for Red Sox fans (or anyone else who can help with my puzzlement). Why are Red Sox fans booing Alex Rodriguez? It's not his fault he's not playing for the Red Sox. He accepted the trade and was willing to restructure his contract, giving up value to make it happen. It's the union and the Red Sox intransigence that got in the way.
