My idiocity

So today at lunch my coworkers and I were talking about radio stations. One pointed out that 97.3 or something is always playing on their side of the office. He said he was amazed by how few songs they actually play claiming that they have a 2 hour loop(obviously exagerating a little).

Anyway he claimed that don't stop believing played as a part of that loop and I said.

"Does everybody break out in song and dance"

to which my boss responded

"I wish I lived in your world"

Public Funding Corruption in MLB

Good article. Taxpayers should not be paying for private stadiums for which the profit we receive from our investment is the ability to buy tickets to go to the stadium.

If I were GM

Think about Wyclef Jean's "If I Were President", but only the complete opposite.

Here is the news of the day.

"- According to sources close to the Cubs, their main target this off-season will be Adam Dunn. Jim Hendry internally admits he made the mistake signing Milton Bradley over Adam Dunn two seasons ago when Dunn was lobbying the Cubs to sign him"

Adam Dunn is so money it makes me cry. My favorite player is Adam Dunn.

Thank God the Reds are a decent rival

For like the last 5-8 years I have thought the astros have been a better rival than the cubs for the cardinals. This sucks because the gaystros aren't good very much. So I was hoping the Cubs would be good again this year, but as expected they are fucking terrible.

So who would rival the cards this year?

The Reds!?!?!?!?!?

Well, the problem is if I had to choose a second favorite team from the central over the last couple years, it would be the reds. This bothers me because I couldn't bring myself to hate them(especially since 5 former cardinals including rolen and cub fan favorite edmonds). That was until Brandon Phillips decided to be a prick, leading to this epic battle on the diamond.

Fuck the Reds, we are in first.
