as usual, the white sox got rained out again last night. i tell you, with all this rain, my home city will turn into an underwater city like atlantis within a few days! michigan and indiana are gonna get all the crap that manages to float across the lake and settle on their shores. my dad called me on sunday to tell me that with all the rain, the weather was perfect for "just ducks and submarines!"
today at 2 my time on WGN, it will be the 1st game of the doubleheader. chris jakubauskas will pitch game 1, but it will be against that fat tub-o-lard bartolo colon. john danks the miracle man gets game 2.
in the meantime, lets enjoy this rain delay by watching dick allen juggle baseballs and smoke a cigarette at the same time (take THAT jim leyland!)
Pretty soon the Sox are gonna be "swimmin' wid da fishes."
ReplyDeleteactually, that would be the cubs. the sox wont go belly-up as fast as the cubs
ReplyDeleteIndeed, good point. I was going for the old stereotypical Chicago mobster. Hard to do the accent online.
ReplyDeletei dont know if you ever heard a chicago accent, but it's a nasal sorta tone with the vowels drawn out (like "yer AAAH-ner, mai clei-ant is innocent!". translation: "your honor, my client is innocent!"; extra nasal emphasis on the drawn-out vowels), and the "th"'s sound like "d"'s, as in "DAA bears!" (the bears) or "DAAA juice" (the juice). its ear-grating to listen to (for outsiders at least), but given that i talk this way, i dont think much about it
ReplyDeleteMai roommate in cahhledge was from da city of Chicagah.
ReplyDeleteoh, i see. dats pretty good :). did he say which baseball team he was a fan of?
ReplyDeleteOh yah, he was a Cubs fan, and of course loved da BEARS!
ReplyDeletedat sucks about da cubs, but hey!! he loved da bears!! dat's good 'nuff for compensation :)
ReplyDeleteDA BEARS!
ReplyDeleteyeah, but our QBs suck. rexy g was a rollercoaster, kyle orton was a raging alcoholic, and now we have diva jay as our newest addition. WHY CANT THE MCCASKEY'S DO THEIR DAMN JOB AND SPEND THE MONEY TO GET US GOOD SCOUTS, COACHES, AND MOST OF ALL PLAYERS?!!!!
