AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: /looks at schedule
I don't think there's any question it's not fair, but I don't think major league baseball is concerned with fair. |
|
DudleyDoWright: Aww, Lair! Don't go causin' a ruckus with the MLB, I'm sure they are fine men and woman just doing their jobs and trying to make it in this dog-eat-hot dog world! |
|
AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: No, Dave, it's bull corn. If you play the top teams in the American League and everybody else doesn't, it's pretty unfair. |
|
DudleyDoWright: It's exciting to be your best, Lair! To play new teams, in new cities, in new ball parks! Last year I got to hug Wally, the Green Monster!
Then, after we lost, we went home and put on our Yankees stuff! |
|
AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: It's not fun when they're all contenders and your competition doesn't have to play the same competition you do.
Tell me, who are you guys playing this year interleague |
|
DudleyDoWright: First we play a subway series (which is not as good as a quiznos series lol the submarine sandwich wars)! |
|
AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: Adam, who do the Phillies have to play against this year? |
|
ThemsGoodEaton: The Kansas City Royals |
|
AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: the first interleague series for the Braves is against the Mon-stars from Space Jam.
Ryan, who do the Nationals play in July? |
|
WetHotAmericanZimmer: some of the Little League All-Stars, and some of their ghost runners |
|
DudleyDoWright: Eep! Ghost runners! That sounds scary!! |
|
SteakGrowsOnDmitri: i ain fraid a no ghost |
|
AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: our second series is a real-life version of one of the teams from Base Wars, created and mechanized by a crazed, elseworlds Sadaharu Oh. |
|
DudleyDoWright: oh |
|
DudleyDoWright: Who do the Marlins play? |
|
MeTrain: some raggity hoe-bows who swing at the pitches wit they stick n satchels |
|
DudleyDoWright: How does that work? Hobos can't have a system of organization, how do they pick which hobos you play? |
|
MeTrain: you ride the train an you play the game |
|
AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: our last series of the year is against the Cleveland Indians |
|
DudleyDoWright: Hey, that doesn't sound so bad! |
|
AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: we have to wear ether-soaked blindfolds and they get to carry around spears |
|
DudleyDoWright: /makes Pac-Man death noise |
|
MeTrain: how we spost to do it then chip |
|
AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: We should do it the way we did it the first five or six years of interleague play, and that's play every team in the American League East, every team in West and so on. |
|
ThemsGoodEaton: so the problem isn't the games you have to play, it's the games everybody else has to play, and you thought the best person to tell was a bunch of reporters instead of your management the people who make the schedules |
|
AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: yes, that's the gist of it |
|
MeTrain: nice plan chip |
