Baseball 2009
Posted: Wed Jan 28, 2009 1:33 pm
In 15 days, pitchers and catchers for most teams start the annual Spring Training process, and the 2009 baseball season is underway...
I, for one, look forward to each baseball season as a little kid looks forward to a birthday party or Christmas...only, it last for seven or either months...
To get in the mood, I found this classic list...
Why Baseball Can Be Better Than Sex
In Numerical Order
1 You can play baseball as much or as little as you want, YOU get to decide.
2 In baseball, the other team pays attention throughout, even if they're done scoring.
3 If you have to take a piss during a baseball game, you can say "Excuse me, I gotta drain the swamp" and you don't lose style points.
4 In baseball, nobody comments on the size of your bat, as long as you know what to do with it.
5 In baseball, you don't have to compliment the other team on their new uniforms.
6 In baseball, you can play the same team every day for a year and it's never the same twice.
7 You don't have to buy the other team dinner to get a game.
8 In baseball, you don't feel guilty about winning the ugly ones.
9 After an unusually long and difficult baseball game you can still ride your bike home.
10 The other team never has to forfeit a game because they're on their period.
11 If you get all scratched up in a baseball game, you can brag about it to your wife.
12 In baseball, you can go a couple months without scoring and your balls won't hurt.
13 You don't mind if your parents come to watch you play baseball.
14 You can play three, maybe four baseball games a day.
15 In baseball, you don't care if the other team has had marital relations with diseased livestock.
16 In a good weekend of baseball, you can play six or seven different teams and it only costs you twenty bucks and you may get a prize at the end.
17 Playing the wrong baseball team won't get you shot.
18 You can be absolutely certain that, nine months after a baseball game, the other teams lawyers won't call, asking for half of your pre-tax income for the next eighteen years.
19 Rest assured that the other team will not invite you to the ballet.
20 The other team doesn't demand that you shave before the game.
21 The other team can smell like road kill and you'll never know it.
22 If you don't score in a baseball game, the other team doesn't ask you if you've had that problem often.
23 No matter how drunk the other team is they never throw up in your bed.
