Baseball Apocalypse
Ya know, one of the few sane refuges you can take these days is in a good old fashioned game of baseball.
I like the Red Sox. I can't say that I've always liked the Red Sox, as a matter of fact, I used to be a pretty big Orioles fan when I was little. In either case, I've never been a big enough fan to memorize stats or get too involved in certain ibbiti bibbities.
I also take part in giving Yankees fans a good ribbing every now and then; they're our rivals, and I think a few members of the team are huge douchebags. (not saying a few members of my own team aren't....like 'Youk' and Varitek).
At no time however, no matter how heated a rivalry is between two teams, is it ok to get into physical, and sometimes DEADLY altercations.
Yankees fans ganging up on a Red Sox fan at Yankee stadium, Yankees fan getting run over by a car, Red Sox fans pulling a Yankee fan out of a car and beating him while stuck in traffic.
I mean, this is just a micro-instance of all the violence in the world, but I find this type of shit to be the most disappointing. It's a fucking game. A pastime. COME ON.
