GO Yankees!

ah, yes. take me out to the ball game! i went to the yankee's /angels game yesterday at Edison Field in Anaheim. You have never seen more men, with beer belly's in tank tops with much too much body hair on their arms and back as you do at the ballpark! they all have their miller lite poised ever so seamlessly in their hand, jutting around 'their' teams attire, boasting, watching, loving the game. the fans crack me up at these sporting events. especially the women who are avid fans. they are consumed for the moment, yelling, sunning; they are really into it. i find it pure comedy. people watching at sporting events is entertaining, especially after 3 beers and during the 7th inning stretch.

Major league baseball games tend to really shed some light on the stereotypical american populous. its rather scary, fun, but still. this microcosm of americana sits and cheers and drinks and eats bad food and laughs and boos and seemingly has lots of fun.

i like it. 9 innings of love. you know baseball is a lot like a relationship or well, sex, rather a courtship. think about it. this is not new, im sure.

Everything from the line-up to the pitcher, all the positions you can play, be, the meetings on the mound, the urgency, the strategy, the competition, whose on top?, the fun... first, second, third, home. ah, a home run. just makes you smile. heehee.
