We are in the 11th with possibly 5 hours left to go. And no one cares about baseball. I don’t happen to care about soccer and I happen to hate football. Except for the social Consciousness involved these days. There are good stories about people involved with football but the game is doomed as is soccer. baseball is the only placed the threat of death is immediate and that’s why it will emerge as the last word in entertainment. 4 hours watching the game, 4 hours in the morning thinking about it, 4 more hours for today’s game. It’s worth a lifetime and it is being criticized in every corner of the room and I count 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8. try and find out how to enjoy this because there is nothing more reliable even though it only lasts 6 months. We’ll be doing winter ball soon enough. End of story
The game that nearly lasted forever. Time. It takes time. The world needs to slow down enough to appreciate that nothing takes more time than this. Life’s greatest reward on the physical plane and the greatest competition for people with their thumbs acting alone is here. Right out in the open. Along with bowling and Racquetball and… Who’s crazy?
No one knows what a checked swing is but everything hinges on it. Along with the hundred mile-an-hour ball headed for your head we’re at the heart of the matter.
about an outcome that means so much to me. They’ve ruined the most incredible game in history but at the same time allowed me to relax. People are going to have to choose which version they want to watch. Spend their time with. I’m going to turn it off for now and go get another pack of cigarettes. I know it won’t be decided in the next 2 hours so what the hell. Unbelievable. An amazing gift this game has been. We’ll talk about it tomorrow and the next day and the next Etc.
