Good Sports All Around


Ushers and fans alike giggled at the poster I brought to yesterday's season finale -a Titanic deck chair victory over the putrid Houston Astros. Of course, a few Daniel Murphy diehards objected to his inclusion, but I expected them. One usher warned me "they (the Coupons) would go crazy if you went behind home plate," but Astros batters were flailing at Nelson Figueroa so quickly the game ended in a blur. The biggest surprise had to be a stadium photographer willing to capture the poster, but I can't imagine the Coupons command much respect or loyalty from even the lowest-level employee.

Nice work, was Kinko's involved in this production? did they blast billy joel over the speakers as you filed out?

Worked overtime at the office to plot this baby out. Didn't stay long enough to hear New York State of Mind but Louis Armstrong did belt What a Wonderful World.

I see washed up vets
Crappy rooks too
I see them lose
For me and you
And I think to myself
WHAT A WONDERFUL TEAM
