Mets vs. Royals in a Game 3 for the Dreamers

Standard

The Mets are down two games to none versus the Kansas City Royals, which means let’s end the 2015 World Series right now. It’s over. All done. You don’t have to go home but you can’t stay at Citi Field, which makes me want to clout any dumb ass bouncer/bartender who makes this dated and overused statement.

Dumb Ass Bartender

I’ve had two days to hear how the Mets are done.

It makes me hate sports radio. It makes me loathe so-called experts, who populate ESPN, FOX Sports and the MLB Network and announce that there is nothing here to watch.

Move on. Get going.

Somehow I believe if ESPN was broadcasting the World Series, we would be assaulted with a constant stream from the Elias Sports Bureau on how World Series teams have rallied back from 0-2 deficits, but let’s move on to the NBA’s opening week of games that ESPN broadcasts.

In Friday night’s Game 3, the Royals will send to the mound a Pedro Martinez Mini Me, Yordano Ventura. In the first three games of the 2015 World Series, the Kansas City Royals have established a baseball first by having three pitchers start World Series games who hail from outside the United States. Game 1 starter Edinson Volquez, Game 2 starter Johnny Cueto and the previously mentioned Game 3 starter Yordano Ventura call the Dominican Republic home.

As a person who fails to see a problem with jingoism or excessive patriotism, rooting for the New York Mets is a vote to Make America Great Again. How do we let these three Royals pitchers even enter the country? Build a wall and send these potential rapists home. Hmmmm … alright, maybe a wall doesn’t work for the Dominican Republic, but how about a Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) array of lasers to stop flights from the D.R. filled with drug-smuggling mules?

Donald Trump, ya feelin’ me, bra!

Trump is from Queens. He must bleed orange and blue, right?

New York’s Game 3 starter is Noah Syndergaard, who is from Mansfield, Texas. Nicknamed Thor, Syndergaard is a Norse Texas god, and is an American-born and American-made pitcher who will Make America and the Mets Great Again. The Mets have only used American-born starting pitching, so let’s get the Canadian-born, uber Texas patriot, Ted Cruz, on the Mets bandwagon.

The Royals are a banana republic squad located in the Midwest. The Royals are a threat to our American ideals, an affront to our national pastime; and as Americans, we need to take a stand.

Rooting for the Mets tonight is rooting for America. And, yes, that makes George Brett anti-American.

I’m dreaming of soaring with the eagles, chasing unicorns through a field of purple clover and getting turnt up with Scrappy from Love & Hip Hop Atlanta.

Bambi & Scrappy

Urban Dictionary.com supplies this sentence for turnt up: shanay got supper turnt up at thee party last night.

I am ready to unleash thee Kraken and turnt it up:

The Sheridan Entertainment Group has been considering offers of releasing a sex tape. Would the release of a sex tape get my face on a box of Wheaties?

As a forty-seven-year-old, wiffle ball is now considered an aerobic activity.

Three games into my youth sports coaching career (See Marv Marinovich.) and I haven’t been thrown out of a game. Who says I can’t do warm and fuzzy? (Maintaining a secret desire to pull an Earl Weaver but I’ll squash that nonsense for now. Don’t unleash the Kraken!)

Watching the Red Sox toil in last place, there is a god. Larry Lucchino should be forced to blow George Steinbrenner in hell. Not that any Bronx Bombers would pass through the gates of hell.

Are newspapers becoming more and more mundane or is the scope of my interests narrowing?

Drove past a pick-up truck that sported this bumper sticker, “Honk for Impeachment” I could write for days on how I hate the pinheads who drive pick-up trucks.

Was Texas Senator Ted Cruz the president of former Astro Jose Cruz “Control’s” Fan Club?

Hung out in Nordstrom’s and heard Kings of Leon being played on the in-house sound system. I’m sure that’s what KOL envisioned when they started their careers.

Hit Matt Bonner’s NBA championship party a few weeks ago at the Redhook Brewery in Portsmouth, NH. Of course Matt Bonner is no relation to party promoter, Scott Bonner. Wanted to share a glass of Barolo with Pop, but he was nowhere to be found.

Bonner – not the party promoter

Matt Bonner is the greatest hoops player in the Granite State’s history. Not sure where Boston College great, Skip Barry, fits on the list.

Green Flash Brewing Company will be opening its second brewery in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Might have to turnt it up in Virginia Beach with Mike Vick and some West Coast IPA.

Nothing better in the summer than savoring a glass of Hazy Jane from Mystic Brewery located in Chelsea, Massachusetts.

Never would have thought there was a ridiculously good bagels place in Chelsea, but Katz’s Bagels is legit. Reminds me of Kupel’s Bagels in Brookline, Massachusetts.

Now, I have to turnt it up with Jeff The Brotherhood.
