Re-runs anyone?
30 October 2007So…was I the ONLY one wishing for the World Series to be swept by one team? Probably not, but I’ll bet I was the only one (or at least one of a VERY few) who didn’t care which team swept - I just wanted it OVER! - and sooner rather than later. Yeah, Yeah. Congrats to the Red Sox (right?) and all that. Sure they won. Sure they did it as a team. Blah. Blah. Blah. I’m sick to death of perfectly good prime time TV being ‘pre-empted’ for a bunch* of whiney, animal-abusing, drug-taking, not-worth-a-tenth-of-their-contract-earning, ‘roid-raging, vow-breaking…(big sigh). Oh, what’s the point? Give me a sport - if you MUST - where the athlete is, uh, athletic. Where he or she makes money based on performance and only AFTER said performance. Go, Lance! And Tiger! And Roger! What? Federer, duh!
*I’m not specifically attacking any particular “athlete” or “team” here (nor all “athletes” and/or “teams”) - even if I did start this post talking about a particular “sporting” event. I’m just saying…
The only downside to the mercifully short World Series is that FOX network was unprepared for the lack of need for the entire primetime period on Monday and Wednesday and so is feeding us re-runs…at least they’re re-runs of something worth watching.
