Bothered? Seriously?

I was just being helpful. Trying to raise the level of trolling. What’s wrong with that?

Drillbit never wins at the House that Chipper built. Let’s focus on what really matters.

Why did the image of Rod Serling and the theme music from “The Twilight Zone” just pop into my head? Aside from the fact that I’m an old fart?

“The way, way, way over-played drama ”

Like the way way way over played MY articles?

Lots of ‘em. I nominate Nixon, though: pretty much disappeared, but when he did pop up for an appearance, it was always to say something criminally outrageous and entertaining, like how he was right all along.

I’m sure we all know the stats, but it bears mentioning that Teddy lost 525 races in a row. So, it isn’t like this was a 6-month fad.

But, after the race he would mediate a fight and help build a house. The odd thing is that Carter has been a better ex-President than he was a President. Who else has done that?

Carter would lead the race, then turn around just before the finish line, surrender, and blame the Israelis.

at least the president race will never feature Mitt Romney unless they include presdential candidates that lose.

agreed, and the philly loser below is obviously “overly sensitive” because watching the Nats throw the final shovel fulls on their pathetic season has has clearly bothered him.
Get used to it, and start gripping for the upcoming disappointments in philthy football . . .

He’s only trying to annoy the overly-sensitive Nats fans, which is like….2% of them, the other 98% won’t care.

Aha, but see that’s where Craig’s announcement is so dubious and in it of itself a form of trolling. If the Nats do happen to lose, you’ll wonder to yourself, which angle will he strike? You’ll lie awake wondering, only to realize you’re dreaming, and the trolling has yet to occur. It’s a troll within a troll…Inception

The real Teddy Roosevelt was a fitness buff and a superior equestrian, hunter, hiker, swimmer and runner who passionately advocated for what he called “the vigorous life.” He’s probably been turning over in his grave at this spectacle. So yeah, they ought to let him kick some butt next year.

Yup. Marge in chains… fully aware but this is one of the more obscure Simpsons references that he has made. and given the nature of the crowd here with politics….

This is great – I’ve been going to games for years and he never won. Good to see him (and the Nats) finally pull through!

William Henry Harrison could be the new president, but he dies before the end every time.

They could race two Grover Clevelands, as long as they start the race non-consecutively.

The current Prez runners jumped the shark when they busted a move Gangnam Style earlier this year; time for new blood.

Kennedy, LBJ, Nixon and Reagan? Of course Nixon would have Ford finish for him.

Funny how this was reported 2 weeks ago. No surprise when its leaked. Question is does Teddy win with any kind of regularity from now on or no.

Will Marilyn Monroe be at the finish line. JFK cant lose if he can finish first in front of Monroe…

So is the material used against every single fan base…ever. Ever hear the one about Santa Clause getting booed? I agree that illad…whatever…didn’t win any cleverness awards, but you did just prove Craigs “overly-sensitive Nats fans” comment right by letting it bother you.
