19 Innings
I survived the Boston weekend.
Saturday:
1. Freddy Garcia is my new Carl Everett. I know he is a good pitcher - but he does really stupid things when I'm watching. From now on I will have to look the other way when he is playing. This is not a superpower I am happy about. I do not want to sell tickets just because Freddy is pitching. Or he could stop getting high before games. Now it's his call.
2. I snuck onto the 100 Level. I'm such a rebel.
3. Not so much of a rebel as my 2 favorite Saturday fans. Fan #1 thought sitting on the ground behind the handicapped seating in Section 130 and doing her nails was much more important than WATCHING THE GAME. The stripper that was sitting behind my parents thought her bra was just made for taking off - during the game. I believe the quote was 'I am many drunk. I had much beers.'
4. The pink hat is evil. I never wanted one, but they gave it to me and it was so damn hot and...the good Sox lost.
5. They looked tired. I am sick of people beating up on my boys. If this is what happens when you win the World Series - I think I can learn to deal.
6. The Chevy crap in the South Lot had bags. I rule at bags.
Sunday
1. I gave my extra ticket to a guy who works at my coffee shop. I still don't know his name - but he bought me beer. He'll have to be the recipient of my 'Ticket Fairy' goodness in the future.
2. Jose. What happened?
3. So Jose was making me nervous - I went to Center Field to get a Margarita. Me and the entire stadium. Get back - think 'Someone just needs to hit Schilling and maybe we can turn our troubles around'. 1 inning later - Thome nails dude in the elbow. Moral of the story: do not be a good pitcher and think you can take down my boys. We destroyed Clemens, we can destroy you.
4. Somebody complained about the 'you suck' guys again. Why? They're funny. But they are funnier when they decide not to swear. 'Your batting stance offends me', 'I don't like you' - they had better ones but I started drinking.
5. My boy Tadahito does it again. Is there nothing he cannot do. Oh yeah, bunt. But that seems to be a White Sox foible this year.
6. Trot Nixon - 0 for 9. If we weren't so damn tired we would have heckled him more.
7. The only good reason for a camera phone - taking pics of the scoreboard at the end of the 19th.
8. 14TH INNING STRETCH. That was awesome.
Home run derby tonight. I have to watch because of Deadspin. If 'You're With Me Leather' actually makes it on TV I will freak out.
