It's coming this Tuesday...

Starting Tuesday, the baseball event of the year gets underway.

It will be three days of the finest baseball action around.

Royals.

Pirates.

At the K.

Three games.

Passion.

Pride.

Pointlessness.

Tuesday - Kip Wells takes on Mark Redman. It's Jeremy Affeldt T-shirt Night!

Wednesday - Ian Snell versus Mike Wood. Most concessions are just a buck!

Thursday - Paul Maholm faces Scott Elarton in a day game. You are allowed to give your Jeremy Affeldt T-shirt back if you come to this game.

Hey now! Ian Snell is on my fantasy team. With my first cable televison service now installed, I'll be hoping to find this game somewhere.

And you're making the people in KC and Pittsburgh sad! Don't they have enough to be sad about, being in KC and Pittsburgh?

ba-dum psssshhh!

I'm most looking forward to seeing how George Brett handles the funky arm angles brought by John Candelaria. Those guys are still playing, right?

And Sanguillen catching with his right leg stretched out. Chambliss! Freddie Patek! Stargell!

It really is kinda sad, ain't it? Two teams with a history of some great players, a few World Championship appearances and wins, now reduced to a blog entry dripping with ridicule.

Sigh.

This series should be known as the "World Cocaine Scandal Classic."

The Braves are in last place now too and have a record better than only the Cubs and Pirates.

Thoughts I'm sure Leo Mazzone never had:

"I have to leave for Baltimore...I need to go to a place that gives me the best opportunity to win."

If you cut a couple of eye-holes in the Jeremy Affeldt t-shirt, you can enjoy the rest of the series in complete anonymity.

Assuming one puts said shirt over one's head...
