THE WORLD SERIES IS PAINFULLY BORING
10.24.08I don’t know if it’s fair to call something boring if you don’t even try to watch it, but I’m not really interested in being fair: this World Series is super-dooper boring. I couldn’t be more thrilled that I didn’t watch the Rays’ 4-2 win last night, because I nearly fell asleep reading the recap. A sample:
Tampa Bay never really got a huge hit, but neither did the Phillies as Jimmy Rollins and crew fell to 1-for-28 with runners in scoring position…
Tampa Bay scored on Jason Bartlett’s safety squeeze and built another rally when Rocco Baldelli walked on a checked swing that seemed to confuse players and umpires alike.
Poor situational hitting! Bunts! Check-swing walks! Hold onto your hats, kids — this wild ride could go seven games!
Game 3 is in Philly on Saturday night, but thankfully, rain is in the forecast. Even God doesn’t want to watch this series.


Well, 1 of 2 in Tampa ain’t bad…..
I think your indifference is best summed up in the tag “MLN Playofs.” If it’s not worth proofreading, it might not even be worth mocking.
Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia >>>>>>>>> Philadelphia Phillies/Tampa Bay Rays action
Good call, Smello. Of course, since you pointed it out, I had to fix it.
Go fuck yourself. The World Series is great this year.
Though you have to admit that was a nice single leg takedown of the catcher right to side control.
James Watt invented the steam engine.
3 more wins and i’ll be calling this the greatest world series ever. but i may be slightly biased.
Amen, HHY. I’d eat cat food to avoid watching this series.
I’ll be sticking needles in my eyes and masturbating with a cheese grater while I watch tonight
