Ghost, you funny b@stard…

Hey there, Ghost fans…Have a riddle for you…

***********************************************

So, a white guy, a black guy and a Mexican all walk into a sportsbar to watch game 7 of the World Series…The bartender asks, “What’ll it be?”….So he looks at the white guy, and the white guy says, “I’ll be drinking a Guinness for every run my team scores tonight, but start me off with one now!”…He looks at the black guy, and the black guy says, ”I’m downing a Captain and Diet Coke for every strike out our pitchers get tonight, but start me off with one now!”…He looks at the Mexican, and the Mexican says, “Give me a Pacifico, and I’ll do a shot of tequila at the top of every inning for good luck,  because my team is getting a title tonight!”….Which one is the Cub fan?

***********************************************

So, Ghost has been sucking it a little bit on here….for that, I will not apologize.

I’ve been pretty damn tired here recently.  Have some good days, have some bad ones.  The days where I don’t type a lot are better, so I’m going to have to shorten up my posts, or post less often.

I’ve decided to channel some of my creative juices and finally write the book that I’ve wanted to since I was about 17.  Maybe work on two at the same time.  Look for something in the fantasy/sci-fi/zombie genre.  Who knows what’ll come out of my head.

Figure out that riddle yet?

***********************************************

So, the white guy…not the Cub fan.

The black guy…not the Cub fan.

The Mexican….also, not the Cub fan.

It’s the bartender.  Seriously…Any REAL baseball fan would have called in sick for Game 7…and a Cub fan would never need to call in for a World Series game…let alone a game 7. 

Go Redbirds!  Defending Champs.  Quit talking smack Cub fans…Especially when you’ve got nothing to brag about.

Ghost out…

Thank God, I’m not a Cub fan too…

Well, it’s that time of year again…

Nope…could totally care less about baseball…It’s not October…nor is there a Cub/Card game on.  No..it’s NFL free agency and the draft is in a month….it’s that time of year, where a Cleveland Browns fan can hope!

This is the difference between Browns and Cubs fans….when we suck…we admit it.  We certainly hate the Steelers….Ravens…Bengals…Broncos….(Elway is THE DEVIL!!!!)

But, Cubs fans…just give it up.  My team hasn’t won a title since the 60′s….in 50 years…if Cleveland can’t get it together….I’ll quit watching football. 100+ years is just ridiculous…..you should have sold your damn team to Mark Cuban…that guy has the juice to break your damn curse…believe it.

Anyway…ESPN cranks out this gem:

Power rankings…sigh….

Here’s what they had to say about the Browns…..

“The Browns can’t run, throw or catch on offense. Other than that, they’re fine.”

(Colt!!!  You can’t hand off to the f*cking mascot!!!!!!)

The last MLB power rankings from September 26th, 2011 had this to say for my Redbirds Rally Squirrels:

“The cardiac Cardinals keep their fans’ hearts beating and their NL wild-card chances alive by taking the lead in the seventh inning or later in their past four wins.”

(Even mother nature and all wildlife knows that the Redbirds are better than the Cubs.)

Wait, wait, wait..just a damn minute here!

The Kardiac Kids are Browns!!!

Well….maybe the Redbirds borrowed some old Brown’s mojo last season.  Now…if only the damn Browns could make a trip to St. Louis and borrow some of that mojo back….apparently it’s spreading around town, as the Blues are kicking some ass this year in the NHL…

(Take it back!  My sister doesn’t suck beer through a funnel!!!  I told you they were KICKING SOME ASS!!!!)

**************************************************************************

So, get the damn team together…and make the pilgrimage to the Arch, fellas.  In sports….a little extra luck can never hurt….and a damn curse can be a bit of a b*tch…..just ask any Cub fan.

(Yeah, good luck…ask those amazing Tigers from 2006 what it means to come in here as the better team….Sweep in three games, my Redbird @ss!!!)

So, this summer and fall…I’ll cheer on the Redbirds….and pray those damn Browns get it together…finally.  I’m serious. You hit the Cubs level of futility and I’m done….I’ll make my kids and probably grandkids at that point, burn all our jerseys…you’ve been warned.

Ghost out…
