Moonlit Jazz

I’ve got the clock radio hooked up in the bathroom so that I can listen to the game. The A’s are down to their last out. It’s 2-5 right now. Alas!… And the A’s fall to the Angels, 2-5. RATS! 😛

Cool articles:

California center of baseball universe (or, if you’re an Angels fan, the title is Angels fans in search of ultimate victory) – I’m an A’s fan, so I don’t really agree with Mr. Neel’s statement of “But make no mistake, there is only one kind of fan worth being right now and that’s an Angels fan.” Still, I can see his point. As a baseball chick in general, I can appreciate his opinion. What I like better is this:

It’s sweet torture now. You want and wish and hope against hope. You fear and dread and cringe and pray. You care at the most basic levels, in the deepest channels.

That statement is so true to me. Go read the article, it’s a keeper! 😀

The A’s are smart… and lucky – I like how Mr. Schoenfield calls my boys “freaks.” Heck, I’ve been calling Zito that for the whole season! (With MUCH affection, of course.) Another great read. 😀

Billy Beane is a rare mastermind. He’d be the first GM I would hire to run a team.

But Barry Zito, Tim Hudson and Mark Mulder — a trio of freaks — are even more rare.

Manic Monday: A’s over the Anaheim Angels, 2-1. Great going! Tim Hudson improved his record to 13-9. 😀

Work kinda SUCKED! But, with help from my fellow co-worker, I got out on time. Oh, and it was a working holiday (Admissions Day), so double time and a half! Woohoo! 😛

Umm, still don’t want to go back to work! Grrrrrr!

I forgot to mention last night about Ted Raimi’s appearance on ODYSSEY 5. (Cool show, must watch!) Ted was a HOOT! I never ever thought I’d see the day where Ted was in bed with two NAKED women ogling his, umm, “manhood.” LOL! And then there’s the whole subplot with Angela and the baseball player? It’s like I’m being given signs about something.

“Write the damn baseball story!” The inner voice demands.

But I don’t wanna go back to work! 🙁

Sports Center didn’t show The Sunday Conversation! Tim Hudson, Eric Chavez, and Billy Koch were supposed to be on. I was all set to record it too. Rats! Maybe I should just stick to Mulder or Zito things. Yeah, that’s it. 😛

WOOHOO! A’s over the Twins, 6-0. Barry Zito now has 20 wins, the first 20 game winner in the American League. Way to go Barry! 😀

Hmm, should I record SportsCenter tonight?…

The A’s are up to bat! First pitch, ball. 😉

I don’t think I’m that goofy, to follow the whole game in my weblog. LOL! Barry Zito will take the mound at the bottom half of this inning.

Ohhh! Durham just got walked! 😀

Anyhoo, the A’s need to win this game to maintain their lead in the West. GO ZITO!!!

I just discovered the Briefcase function at Yahoo.com. Yeah, what took me so long? LOL! Anyhoo, I’ve got my story files uploaded there so that I can work on them from any computer. Groovy! 😀
