Standby for News!

TMI? Yeah, TMI.

Wow, I'm not sure what to say. I've known about That Guy's hatred of the 8:30 first pitch. I completely agree. It's a shame that the owners and players and MLB executives have all become whores. They take the money and don't really care what they have to do to get it. It's primetime and if they can make money on the tv deal, they will (at the expense of losing the youngest generation of fans).

The reason I'm at a loss for words is the last statement. I really didn't need to know that. Life is hard...that's all you had to say man, really it was.

As a disclaimer, I also feel it necessary to state the fact that I am happy with life. I just choose to let my displeasure and fault-finding tendencies show themselves more than my joyful side. It's not nice to accuse, even if you're doing it to invoke a response. It hurts man, it hurts.

I Can't Believe What I Just Heard

Oh, and a little P.S. to my last post. Is it just me, or is Fox finally getting it when it comes to broadcasting baseball. Ok, let's forget about my-head-is-to-big-to-fit-in-this-pressbox Joe Buck. Or his broadcast partner (who's head might literally be too big to fit in the pressbox) who just talks all the time about pratically nothing. But, I have been very impressed with the much more appropriate World Series music during those special video montages coming back from break. Don't get me wrong... I love the rock-and-roll like the next guy and I think it fits in for the World Series as well. But it's nice to mix in the more traditional stuff sometimes. I keep expecting Roy Hobbs to hit one into the lights.

So, there's a Cheer to go with my previous Jeer.

And yes, I am the best there ever was!

All Night Long

Maybe that's the problem with America these days... not enough Parcheesi being played.

Ok, so it took me a few days to really figure out what's bugging me. I'm not like This Guy. I am pretty much happy with how life is. But everybody has something to bitch about every once in a while, right? So, here goes with me.

It is 10:06 p.m. on the East Coast and Game 2 of the 2007 World Series is only in the bottom of the fifth inning. If it continues to be a pitcher's duel (thank goodness for that, by the way), the game should get over around 11:30. Now, I know I don't have a job. But my little one still gets me up pretty early. I also know that this has been talked about for a long time, but it's finally time to do something about it. Start the damn games earlier! As each year goes by the game of baseball is losing young fans to football and other rediculous sports that you don't have to think when you watch them.

Ok, so that wasn't very eloquent, but that surely has been bugging me lately.

Remember, life is hard, but so am I.

Parcheesi?

Who in the hell still plays parcheesi? Oh, and I guarantee it took That Guy at least 5 minutes to punch the right numbers into the calculator to get 9003 hours.

We'll be introducing a new segment sometime before the end of the week. It's really going to be my favorite (not that we have a whole heck of a lot of them) considering it's basically all about bitching. We haven't decided on a name, but I like-- What's bugging you?

If you are asking yourselves, "what could that possibly be about?"
Then, you should probably just answer yourselves by saying, "Oh, it's just This Guy and That Guy bitching about something." Because you'd be correct.

So, to get things started; hey, That Guy, What's Bugging You?

I'd say it's been a while...

Millions were clamoring for a return and now they are finally rewarded. Not sure this is much of a reward, but at least the hate mail will stop. Wow January 10th was the last post. A lot has happened since then... babies, diapers full of s%^t, and new siding. Oh yeah, and Hillary is YOUR President of the United States... wait, that hasn't happened yet? Oh, well it will soon enough.

Only 375 days or 9003 hours (if you count things that way... why would you count things that way... anyway) until election day and another Clinton in the White House. Get out the Parcheesi, it's going to be a party that night.

Sorry for not being there...

I know, it's been awhile. For that, I am very sorry. I have disappointed the many readers of this fine blo--oh who am I kidding...nobody read the first month of posts anyway, but we're back anyway. Stay tuned-- can you tune to the internet?
