He was supposed to be my anchor, my steady work horse, my stud. Now he’s my best guy on the DL. I blame Scott Eyre for this. He’s not athletic. I watched him play poorly for the Giants for too long. If he hadn’t tried to do something he’s not capable of, then Lee would be fine right now. But no, he had to go and make a bad flip with his glove while falling down forcing Lee to cross in front of Furcal’s path as he ran down the line. Although I never thought a 5’10” 170lbs man would do so much damage to a 6’5” 245lbs man. I was wrong.<BR/><BR/>I do not think this is a curse though. Two reasons. One, the Dodgers lost more games to injury than anyone last year, and I know they’re not cursed. And two, there are so many people in this world (myself included) that absolutely despise, loath and flat out hate the Yankees. I find it unfathomable that no one has ever tried to curse them. In fact, I’m sure not a day goes by that someone doesn’t curse them. But does it matter? No. They just keep on winning like the soulless wretches that they are… The Cardinals have won a world championship 9 times. They are second to the Yankees who have won it 26 *&%$ times!!! <BR/><BR/>But at least the Cubs have one it. Twice even. Padres? Never won it. Astros? Never won it. Mariners? Never won it. Rangers? Never won it. Rockies? Never won it. Brewers? Never won it. (although the Braves did win one while they were still in Milwaukee, so that’s sort of a gray area) Expos? Never won it. (technically, they don’t exist anymore since they moved to Washington and renamed the team the Nationals. But Washington won a world series when they were the Senators before moving to Minnesota and becoming the Twins, so that’s another gray area) Devil Rays? Never won it. I suppose you could argue that those are a bunch of expansion teams though, so they don’t count. However, the Mets (2), Marlins (2), Blue Jays (2), Royals (1), Diamond Backs (1), and Angels (1) all won a championship or two, and they are all expansion teams…<BR/><BR/>Ok, obviously I care about this way too much…Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02421754239978764299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10935953.post-1146238791518245172006-04-28T10:39:00.000-05:002006-04-28T10:39:00.000-05:00I don't understand basketball (basketball, right?)...I don't understand basketball (basketball, right?) so a lot of this went right over my head. <BR/><BR/>But I caught the part about a smelly goat!
