Change We Can Believe In

Marty:
Hey, Callaghan, I thought I'd call to give you the news from the Yankees Training Camp as I doubt you delusional New Englanders can take your heads out of your Red Sox asses long enough to see how you're going to lose the AL East this year …

Marty:
Young phenom Hughes is having impressive bullpen workouts and Moose is due to bounce back and even the Boss is looking good.

 

---

Bill:
Now, Mahty, if I were you, I wouldn't be making any late Octobah plans just yet.

 

---

Bill:
Which reminds me, Mahts, I don't think you need to make any plans to be in Washington D.C. as a guest of your gal Hillary at her Inaugural Ball neithah.

 

---

Bill:
As I predicted ovah a year ago, Obama owns the inside the plate on Clinton and she is getting brushed back more with every pitch.

 

---

Marty:
It's way too early, Callaghan, to count Senator Clinton out.

 

---

Bill:
What are you saying, Mahts, she's going to come back from the impossible 0-3 hole like the 2004 Red Sox?

 

---

Bill:
Hmmm, no disrespect intended but I don't think yoozeguyz from New York have it in you for something like that, but I can have Lisa the Temp Handbrake my 2004 ALCS DVDs and send them on ovah to you.

 

---

Bill:
Then you and your fellow Clintonistas can sit around getting all inspiahed from the greatest comeback of all time.

 

---

Marty:
Funny, Bill. But what's even funnier is how appropriate it is that you're supporting Obama. I mean he's a lot like the Red Sox isn't he, what with not much of a record and hyped by a Cult of Personality similar to Red Sox Nation?

 

---

Marty:
Don't forget, Hillary has real experience, just like the Yankees have 26 Pennants.

 

---

Bill:
Whatev, Mahts. But have you looked at the calendar lately? It's not the 199Os anymore. The Clinton years are ovah, just like the Yankees Dynasty is ovah.

 

---

Bill:
Embrace the change, Mahty, embrace it.

Touche, Bob. Two points for you.

Ah, you're okay PT. Most of the time, anyway.

But I still, and always will, despise the Skankees.

At least the Toilet Bowl will be gone soon.

LC -- would it be fair to say that your non-surly, judicious phase vanished as quickly as it appeared? Welcome back.

Just catching up on a couple of days worth.
Just to throw in my 2CW -
I am So DAMN glad Gag-me is gone!
I cringed every time he took the field last year. I'm a Tito fan, and even more so because he actually defended this guy. THAT is loyalty to your players, although I cussed him every time he actually backed up those words by putting him in.
Now watch the bastard rock for the Brewers.
I was very high on Obama early on, as in all the way back in 04, when I heard THE speech. (Or was that 00?)
I said then, this guy should be president.
I have cooled considerably, but still think maybe he's the real deal. Hard to say now. A few years in DC can apparently change anyone. Just not getting the same inspiration there was before.
I can only hope the fire is still there, he's just toning it down for the race. Like TV, music, food, and everything else in this country, politics has become about finding the lowest common denominator and being as neutral as possible. The only "changes" being made involve simply taking greater numbers of existing shows/songs/tastes/ideas and combining them to create something more milquetoast than what previously existed. Then you call it "new" and promote it as the greatest innovation yet.
Screw change, it's time for something different
