I wash my shirt last night looking forward to continue the celebration today.
This morning I’m tying to decide what to wear, is not going to be orange, Houston had great season but at the end we were in the wrong stadium.
Why we played well when we were in Washington and didn’t do well at home? I think they were partially blinded by the color of orange all over the stadium. It’s like the red light at each intersection, you have to stop, I know is not red but orange has a combination of yellow and red, it’s that moment that says partially swing and don’t.
Now, that I washed my shirt last night and I’m embarrassed to wear it today, I’m going to settle for any other shirt and promised myself not say anything to anybody about the game, I’m sure everyone today will pretend nothing happened. The only orange I’m goig to show is my Home Depot gift card.
Today may be the final resting place for the Washington, Nationals. Baseball is what I’m talking about, for some of you that only follow soccer.
If the Houston Astros win the game today they will be the 2019 World Champions
What I don’t understand is how they can be the World Champions if no other country participates in this championship, unless they call it the world championship because few players are actually from this country.
I was looking at the roster for both teams and I found names like, Correa, Altube, Álvarez, Osuna, Toro, Días, Valdez, Martes, Rendon, Parra, Gomes, Barrera and Sanchez. If my memory is correct it takes 9 players to make a team, so we have plenty of outsiders here to make another team , probably a winning team year after year because these coaches seem to rely heavily on these names to make it to the World Series.
I wonder how much I can offer these guys to come and play in my team, if I pay them in Colombian pesos they will be instant millionaires and it won’t break my bank, They will feel right at home, they don’t have to learn another language, or survive on hot dogs and hamburgers, their diet could be full of rice and beans, yucas and plantains; curfew won’t happen before the bars close and instead of Gatorade at the games they can have cerveza fria.
I’m going to throw my offer here so they can start planning to move to team GUACAMOLE for the 2020 championship. As an added bonus they will not be expected to show on time for the games, the fans pay enough money as it’s to see the games and we should make it worthwhile so they are not having to be at the stadium only four hours but they can actually enjoy more than one meal at the stadium.
With all that said, some of you are probably having seizures because you don’t know what to wear for the game tonight, not that you are going to the ballpark, you are probably staying home like many of us but will go out and spend hundreds of dollars on team jerseys you will only wear tonight because you don’t really follow baseball the rest of the year. So do as I do, put a safety orange t-shirt you can purchase at Walmart for seven dollars and call it done. If your wife insist on purchasing a $130 shirt to watch the game, ask her to bring few bottles of wine, few cases of beer, some chips and salsa and order pizza to be delivered around the fifth inning, and when she asked what is all that for, you tell her that you are inviting some friends to come and watch the game with us, then she will say, that is too expensive when there is a chance the Houston Astros won’t win tonight; at that point, you say, yes dear you are correct, why don’t you just buy another t-shirt at Walmart and we can save that money as well.
