shiny happy people
I love Lucky Charms. Not silver or gold ones, the cereal...you know--the magical cereal with sweet surprises (I really like Apple Jacks, too)...there is absolutely no purpose in that announcement. No hidden agenda. No punch line. Not even a story...today's title however, I ran across while perusing other blogs. Now I can't get the f*ing tune out of my head. In college, I drank and smoked to REM...S.H.P. does not count. Radio Free Europe--now THAT counts!
I went to see the assRangers get spanked this weekend. Scored some decent seats, not from my intended, the seats were just as good though. Just behind the opposing on deck circle. Around the 6th inning or so, in between at bats, up on the Jumbotron, some guy and some chick were just standing around. Before you know it, in flashing letters, a profession of love and a marriage proposal appeared. She was shocked, and he knelt with the ring box in hand, hoping that she didn't humiliate him in front of 45,000 people. She did not. I was elated. A conversation ensued. Seems that the opinion in the seats was somewhat divided. Would I like to be proposed to in front of 45K people???? HELL YES! The more witnesses I have, the easier it will be to convince others who have wagered against it. Not only that, I think it takes an extra large set of cahones to profess love in front of all those people on a Saturday night. It would be better than actually getting asked to couple skate (which, as you may have guessed, never happened to me)Most of the men in the surrounding seating area, weren't all that keyed up about it, though. They wanted to do it in private? Such a personal moment should not be in front of so many others? WHATEVER. One guy was in from Chicago...gonna propose to his girl pretty soon , but cannot do it like that at Wrigley because they have no jumbotron. (cop out)
(...On a side note, I saw 3 people in my surrounding area donning the choking yankmee t-shirt...why do assRangers care???)
I think, so as not to turn blue waiting for my proposal, I'll just pay the thirty bucks on my birthday and get my face plastered on the Jumbotron that way..
PS...I was within 6ft of Johnny Damon. He's hot in a long haired baseball sort of way!!

o yeah.johhny 'dirty jesus' damon is a hottie of mythic porportions..i so envy you....
He's a bafoon, but that might just be jealously. Maybe the Ass fans remember the ways the Yanks spanked the hell out of their team in the playoffs in the 90's. Maybe they're just bigger than normal idiots. After all, everything is bigger in Texas right?
Go with a friend & have him propose for a joke & then you can either have a ball making a scene saying no or saying yes and have all the other sappy girls tearing up and talking about you.
Welcome back.
Oh for Heaven's sake. Of course we remember getting spanked by the Yankmees in the 90's. Johnny Oates, God rest his soul, was so happy just to make it to the playoffs. Those were the days of Juan "Igor" Gonzalez, Raffy "I use Viagra" Palmiero, and the greatest catcher in baseball Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez(PRod)we had Nolan before that, and my hopeful intended, Kenny, I think we even had downtown (6 runs in the 1st inning)kevin Brown...lest ye forget--we also had Canseco(pre Riod expose), who could ever forget when he let a ball bounce off his head and fly into the stands for a homerun...
The past is gone Rat...let it go. Your Yanks are sucky as of late. You just cannot go back home. (unless of course you are a former assRanger pitcher, then you can come back, and we'll pay you)
(I do like Jeter, though...just because he's from my hometown)
I cannot bear to pay someone to fake propose to me. I'll stick to the 30 buck fee on my birthday...hold my bottle of Dr Pepper, smile and wave to the fans that way...
AND I will rush the field next time Damon's in town!!!!!!
You go girl!!!! grab some of damon's hair and hang on...
Pay. I never meant to suggest you'd have to pay. And believe me the past glory looks like a waning dot in the rear view mirror as we blow the doors off the lide into hell. Another painful performance today.
