Wake Up Anna, It is Time……
Dominated by Zack Wheeler, we just got swept by the Mets. The Chicago Cubs have a better record than we do. Gaudin has been feeling up random women at the ER. Matt Cain is one of, if not THE, worst starting pitcher on the staff. None of this is making any sense. I’m tired of waiting for things to change back to normal and I’m not heading out to the ledge cause I’ve still got 2 World Series trophies hypnotizing me so I’m gonna play my last, final card to do my part to turn this season around……
As you all know, we have a secret weapon. If you look to the right under the Room B tab and scroll down to the bottom you’ll know what I’m talking about. She’s been in hibernation for a few months. But last October, she reeled off 8 straight wins and a world championship for us. I brought her back this year and she spun 5 straight. She’s 13-0 as the BBOTD. Shortly after I post this thread I will thoughtfully select another picture of her and upload her to the BBOTD page (which has been dark for months now).
Anna is rested, this shouldn’t be much of a burden for her. I’ll gently nudge her, tell her *it’s time*. She’ll open her sleepy eyes, crack me a half smile, maybe nod once or twice. It’s not a knowing dude head nod–more like a slutty consensual head nod. Either way, she’ll do what we ask of her. She always does. At least she always did. Earlier this week, our old buddy San Dawg was reminded that nothing lasts forever. Sometimes not even Nickleback can save a love lost. It’s possible that our “sure thing”, our “neighborhood bicycle”, our “slump buster”, our “midnight text mistake”….just might be done with us. Say it ain’t so, Anna……
