In fact, since I have the flu, I’ve been adoring it ON my bathroom wall pretty much all day. Haven’t had to worship the porcelain good but have mooned him quite a bit.

Back when I was a kid, Chief Nok-a-homa was lovable, not racist. But, what did I know? I made a conscious decision to become a Braves fan- in the mid 80′s.

(But I couldn’t let yesterday’s “homeslice” reference slide.)

In my defense his mom was H O T! Sigh. I am pathetically predictable excepting for not liking crowds. I loathe crowds but I put up with it because I love baseball and there are the occasional hot mom or two around. I’m printing this chart for purposes of adoring my bathroom wall.

I like it a lot. I kind of feel that the Cubs/Phils/Brewers were a cop-out (and not only because I think the Brewers definitely should have been an option off the encased meat junction…)

Also, because I know what it feels like to create an image and then have no idea when people are viewing it, here’s the link to the actual post with the flow chart: http://www.interpretationbydesign.com/?p=4786

If you think it is too cold for baseball you should root for the DBacks, not the Rockies. And if you think it is too hot for baseball then you should root for the Rockies not the DBacks. They have it switched.

I care if my team wins another game: YES!

I’m watching baseball to pass the time until football camp: NO NO NO.

I use sports to distract myself from the drudgery of my life: No, that’s what Scheduled drugs are for.

I cheer when the Jumbotron says so and not a moment sooner: What’s a jumbotron? No.

Is it racist to have a race of people be the mascot? Yes, to a degree.

Look at me and I’ll punch you: Not really.

I’m afraid of large crowds: No.

I am ashamed to eat sushi at a ballgame: No, but I’m skeptical of it’s quality so forgetaboutit.

My favorite tailgate food is: Any kind of encased meat

If a foul ball came my way I would: Seek a child and give the ball to him/her.

Really? Yes.

Let’s go Jays!!!
