By the way...wasn't it refreshing to hear a president give a speech who didn't sound like a learning-disabled third grader? Or who actually knew how to pronounce "nuclear?" It's been a while...about 8 years.<BR/><BR/>All I know is I got my baracklyn ticket, cricket...and I'll be there bright and early to try to get a bobblehead, too.

I wouldn't have been...maybe you think it's okay to p-off part of your fan base that doesn't like and didn't vote for Obama...teams should stay out of politics...and what a dopey comment about dogs and super heroes...no comparisonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6146140441475621406.post-12309864279007375062009-01-15T22:26:00.000-05:002009-01-15T22:26:00.000-05:00YOU GO GIRL!YOU GO GIRL!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6146140441475621406.post-69647135777156756342009-01-15T00:43:00.000-05:002009-01-15T00:43:00.000-05:00PS-Go Cyclones!

And he won in a LANDSLIDE! Obviously there are a few people out there who do like him, and I'm one of them, so I'm excited about this night.<BR/><BR/>But guess what? If I didn't like him, or the night, I'd just stay home, or get over it. Get a sense of humor. If you want boring, bland, no creativity baseball, stick to MLB, or the SI Yanks.<BR/><BR/>Otherwise, suck it up, have a little fun, and learn to laugh. It's a bobblehead night in the minors.

I have a mini-plan - and buy tix to lots of other games - and I think this sucks. Have somebody throw out a first ball or somethin' so those of us who think Obama is a left-wing idiot can boo, and have over it. But to wear jerseys with Barack on them? Tooo much.<BR/><BR/>By the way, shouldn't there be a "Hussein" between the "k" and the "lyn"? And shouldn't there be a hammer and sickle patch on the sleeve?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
