uhhhh…nice slider tonight…

O.k…so this caught my eye when reading a recent blog on wordpress.  I can’t help but wonder what gave these two men such an idea.  I mean…I know that in some cultures this is normal…the little kiss on the cheek or whatever, especially in Italy and some places in Mexico and South America.  BUT, is it really THAT important to you to do it on national television after winning a game in the world series??  And it’s not like it’s just a teeny tiney little peck, this guy on the right (pitcher Uegueth Urbinais actually puckering those lips and going in for the real thing.  Yikes.  I can just see it now, the awkward look they gave each other as they slowly walked to the empty space between the plate and the mound.  So anyways…they later went on to win the World Series against the Yankees, and Pudge Rodriguez (the other culpret) moved on to bigger and better things.  Namely men who can throw over 100mph…(more his type).  I guess beating the Yankees in the world series might encourage any man to do some pretty crazy things.  Which brings me to my next topic…

 Why do they call it the WORLD series…when it’s actually just teams in the U.S…and don’t even say Canada…cause we all know they don’t count.  Or when a team wins the Super Bowl…they claim they are WORLD champions.  No wonder Europians hate us…seriously.      

P.S; this page won’t always feature beautiful poems, men in thongs, and baseball players kissing…I promise.
