This is a total true story.  About 20 years ago I was driving in the car through Iowa with my uncle in the front seat and my grandmother in the back seat.  We had the Cubs on the radio and listening t

Jeepers, this just looks like 2 teams desperately trying to give this game away.

 

I wonder who wants it less?

After watching the crazy hops in the Oakland Coliseum,   I'm starting to think that the only difference between their outfield grass and my back yard is that they don't have dandelions or a charming little wishing well like I do.

Now I got Crazy Town "Butterfly" in my head and I know it wasn't what you intended... but it happened.

 

If anyone talks about 90s music being better...punch them in the mouth

It's your own back yard, right?

 

Did you really need to wait until 2 AM to take a photo with night vision goggles?

There has got to be that stat, somewhere-  runs given back after team scores.  

 

Gotta be.  

 

And we gotta be at the bottom.

Hm.  Methinks I must re-quote my re-quote.  It's deja vu all over again.  It's deja vu all over again.  It's...

Ahhh, the night games on the coast.

 

Long ago memories of the smuggled transistor hidden under the pillow, with the surreptitious ear phone in the pillow-side ear, and feigning restful sleep. And that late, sometimes could get a Twin Cities station, with the actual pre-game show, and post-game, too, if you were still awake. All those exotic sounding ads in between for things that City People buy, instead of the fertilizer promos and livestock prices during the inning breaks, and no post-game, cuz we gotta rush right into the farm report...

 

Signal fading in and out while the Twinks battled the California Angels, (or Seattle Pilots!), and nodding off sometime around the 5th or so with that giant earplug cracking away.

 

And now, at my desk in bloody Hong Kong, catching a gambling-site feed from Vladivostok.

 

Tempora mutantur, Jack. Tempus fugit, too.

You had me right up until the Seattle Pilots.

Yeah... It all changed for me when I learned how to play a B Flat on Piano. 

 

When I moved the F in that chord to F Sharp... My weirdness became augmented. 

 

ChiTown... I'm glad you got that joke.

 

Others may not have.

I'll not be privy to your perversions.

 

For some reason I just for a second misread that as 'be a privy',   and I can't tell you how staunchly I stood in solidarity with your refusal...

Ok. Maybe by a hair. 90s music shreds. Hard.

It sure does. But for every great band there was a crazy town, or limp bizkit, or sugar ray, or...

I didn't get it either.  Does it have something to do with the F word?  That's where I was going with it.  I wasn't much of a musician.
