AN ACTUAL CONVERSATION.
TBF and MG sitting on couch a day or two ago, watching SportsCenter baseball highlights.
TBF: “Uh-oh, the Twins beat the Red Sox.”
MG: “Good”
TBF: “We don’t want the Twins to win.”
MG: “Well, I’m not rooting for the Red Sox. You can.”
TBF: “We’re rooting for the Tigers.”
MG: “Why? Because of your father?” [TBF’s dad is from Detroit.]
TBF: “Yes.”
*pause*
MG: “Well, I’m rooting for the Twins. They played a very scrappy game this year, came from behind, and their fans had a bad year with the threats of contraction.”
*silence, as TBF considers the monster he has created*
MG: “Can you argue with that logic?”
TBF: “Not really.”
[CLARIFICATION: I am NOT rooting for the Twins over the Mets should they face each other in the playoffs! Geez, people! :)]
BRAVO!!! GO TWINS!
TWINS METS WS??
