Just think, Dukes, you and I could be celebrating today together as brothers but you chose the path of the sinner and I like to think that the events of today confirmed that like that one fucker at the end of The Last Crusade, you chose ... poorly.
Still, I thought of you as the game drew to a close and I felt a hint of sympathy. But only a hint! For these are strange and terrible times and although it pains me, the marrow from your bones is needed to give me the power and strength to endure the long and savage road that is the Tigers season so that I may ultimately sit in triumph upon my throne of blood. It's just the way it has to be, friendo.
I had a wrestling magazine from probably 1986 or something, quite possibly MAIN EVENT, in which Randy Savage was like, "I used to play baseball but it had TOO MANY RUUUUULES FOR THE MADNESSSSSS"
Just like Manny Ramirez. How many other potential greats must the stuffy GRAND OLD GAME fetishists alienate before we realize collectively that we have suffered culturally for it? Oh Lord, how many?
Ooooooooooh yeeeeeeeaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh DIG IT!
When I turned on the game at lunch, I was like "awwww" but then I was like "Oh Neil will be happy so it's ok.
ReplyDeleteWorst thing that happened today was the Red Sox not going 0-7

ReplyDeleteNow that I think about it, didn't the Macho Man play baseball at a fairly high level at one point or is that just another of my absurd fever dreams?
