Following Up...

...on a couple things.

First, thanks everyone for your response to the "online dating" post...more comments welcome!

Second, remember Third Baseline Guy? If still hating him is wrong, I don't want to be right.

And finally...by request, here is another BlogWar picture:

He has a clean shot and doesn't take it! Inexcusable.

Okay, explain this hatred of the Third Baseline Guy to a non-Cub fan, namely, me. Especially, be sure to explain why you hate him when on the very next play, the Cubs should have had a double play which would end the inning with no runs scored, and Alex Gonzalez commits an error.

About the Third Baseline Guy, it could be worse. Down here we have the Texas Rangers. They've raised the June Swoon to an art form.

Down here, we have the Braves. And they are always good :)
Also, anyone notice that Ethel has a clean shot on both of them and doesn't take it. That's doubly inexcusable!

Because we like a scapegoat, Paige, and we like to think he started the whole run of terrible luck that happened after his catch attempt.

We know it's illogical. We just want someone to blame. :-)

Well, I can understand those emotions. They're not my emotions in this case, but I think I've had similar experiences. But to quote Arthur Bloch, "To err is human. To blame it on somebody else is even more human." (via J-walk)

"To err is human. To blame it on somebody else is even more human."

Isn't that part of the Lawyer Oath?

Daniel: yep, the Braves have finished in first place 12 years running... and how many World Championships? I don't remember. Oh wait! I remember: ONE.
mheh!
