It's no use, Homer. People just don't listen.Ah, an October Sunday. My favorite day and my favorite time of year. Perfect for lounging and watching the fully loaded slate of NFL action. Let's check the TV lineup, shall we??
Wait a minute. This is strange...must be a typo.
1:00 PM - Eagles v. Redskins
1:07 PM - Phillies v. Brewers, Game 4 NLDS
I WARNED YOU PEOPLE!!! I WARNED YOU OF THIS IMPENDING DOOM AND THIS LOSE-LOSE SCENARIO!!! I WARNED AND YOU SAT BACK AND MOCKED!!! "OH, GET AN ATTENTION SPAN," YOU SCREAMED!!! WELL NOW WHO'S SCREAMING?!!??! WHO?!?!?!
Seriously, if somebody can tell me how this scenario somehow benefits the game of baseball, please, I'm all ears.
Also, another positive to my "play the World Series in August" theorem that I've thought of since posting the original column: Kids would get to watch the games because they don't have to go to school the next day. Now you're getting a whole new audience hooked, and like the tobacco companies's wettest of dreams, you get them hooked when they're young. Just one more reason why I'm a freaking genius.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have a bunker to hole up in.
