The "Not Baseball Politics" Blog
The baseball World Series just wrapped up, with the Yankees winning. Now I have no particular thought about this. I'm not a sports fan. My response to the news that the Yankees won was, "The World Series was now?" That should tell the level of interest pro sports in general holds for me. (But hey, if that's your thing, enjoy it!) So as a result, I'm particularly indifferent to the Yankees winning.
Mel, on the other hand, being a die-hard Red Sox fan, feels the need to spit every time I mention the Yankees.
So, if I'm not invested in baseball, why the post? Well, it's mostly anecdotal in nature. Earlier this week, one of the local radio DJs was discussing the hate-on that many people (like Mel) have for the Yankees. This particular DJ said he didn't mind that the Yankees had/bought their talent, but he had issues with the arrogance that the company as a whole tends to flaunt. Which led to the following quote: "If the Yankees were playing a team of Dementors from Harry Potter, I'd be waving the Dementor banner."
...am I the only one who suddenly has this great/evil/deranged idea of an all-Dementor baseball team? There's a fanfic in that, I'm certain.
Now if you'll excuse me, there's sleep to be had.
