The press box is much roomier for the Blue Jays than it was for the Red Sox.
Thursday, May 15, 2008
Frankly...I am bored with the game between the Twins and Blue Jays. No energy from the crowd, the players, and even the cranky press box is subdued. So I am going to give you a list of why's relating to the Twins and this game that's been created by other bored members of the media.
1) Why do fans insist on bringing a beach ball to the game only to have it taken away by security within 5 minutes?---from me
2) Why does no one call the Twins-Blue Jays series the "Border Battle?" (Ontario vs Minnesota)---from an anonymous member of the media, not me
3) Why do fans try to make "Let's go Twins" a 4 syllable chant when there is only 3 syllables in the phrase---from a bitter and anonymous member of the media, not me...I've never really noticed.
4) Why is TC a bear?
5) Why does the "wave" still exist at some ballparks?---from me. I don't think it's done here very much.
6) Why do some umpires have a subdued strike call while others scream strike like there's a fire?
Here is the show schedule for the rest of the week.
