How to Ruin Your Life

Greetings to the adoring public and rapidly exploding fanbase of the old chin music (baseball term). Life is great is it not? Another day--another post, does it get any better? [Note: This is rhetorically situated so that you will answer "no" whether or not it actually does get any better. Play along.]

Well I did it. I ruined another baseball player's season. I am three for three on this. Two years ago it was Miguel Tejada. Last year it was Andy Pettite. This year, I destroyed Eric Gagne's elbow and ended his season after just 14 appearances.

How did I do this? How does the blame fall on me? You see, every year I foolishly talk myself into playing fantasy baseball thinking that somehow I will not finish last again. Anyway, I am cursed...or better yet I am the curse--every player that I select first overall ends up completely jacked up and falling apart in all aspects of life. This year, I shelved Gagne sending him in for Tommy Johns surgery before the allstar break.

Please consider this a formal apology Dodger's fans. Saint Louis Fans, rejoice: I had a chance at Pujols and took Gagne instead.

I wonder whose career I will destroy next year...

Shoutouts: Glad to see some new faces--Aryn and Anticheesis, welcome to the strike out pitch! Hi Mom, I love you!!! Dawn, I have started the second book and am doing well. Kristen, hit me up with some pics of the little one. Still looking for the high tater. Peace!
