Memo to Cialis: Get up on this [ll]
With Major League Baseball’s playoffs opening pitch being thrown later this evening I thought I’d talk a little about this historic season and what has really been at play in America’s pastime. Despite all the tumult over BARRY BONDS eclipsing HENRY AARON’s career home run record, as well as the off the field stories of illegal substance abuse among lower profile players, baseball game attendance soared this season. Nearly 80 million people waked through ballpark turnstiles. This outpaced last years mark bu over three million.
BARRY BONDS historic season can take some of the credit for this surge along with the other players that also achieved some milestone career stats, but at the end of the day all these numbers coincide not so much with more home runs, or even more offense for that matter, but longer home runs. Huh?!? Does anyone remember the controversy opened up several years ago about major League baseball redesigning the construction of their official game balls? It looks like some big brained scientists did a serious study on the the interior of MLB balls [ll] and what they turned up is interesting.
Looking Inside Baseballs for Home Run Secrets
Basically, the core of the baseball has been increased and the material has been changed to one that is more responsive when the ball is hit. The operative word however is still HIT, and if you can’t hit the ball then you don’t really have a say in whether or not it becomes a souvenir. Dig this shit, the center of the ball is called the “pill”. Did I not tell just Cialis to get up on this shit?!?
I imagine that the ball reconstruction may aid pitchers in the aspect of gripping the ball now that the ball’s surface is softer [ll]. All these new modifications have some baseball “purists” balking at the recent records that have been posted and declaring that modern day baseball requires an asterisk in the record books.
None of these so-called purists have had the courage to describe all baseball records a sham since half of the game’s recorded history was played during America’s legalized segregation.
I used this drop only to point out the constant hypocrisy that is published when people of color retain the legacy of American idealism. Baseball is still a great, perfect game that is best enjoyed on a warm, sunny afternoon. I hope this years’ playoff delivers some new heroes to the fore as there will certainly be a new world champion. I will leave the newspapers and the television alone to promote their new world order agenda.
Last but not least, Cubs and BoSox in the series, with Chi-Town winning it all in seven.

‘YE TUDDA says “That’s what’s up! Soriano is my nigga!.” |
Yanks all the way!
Nuff said.
Since the Orioles were keeping the grass long to hide balls in it, baseball has been about cheating. Ask any old fan of any team and he can probably tell you how his favorite team cheated. Meanwhile Bonds still has no positive test and he’s the devil incarnate.
I knew the Yankees effed up when they cut Soriano…
Ay Dallas, got the Daredevil DVD in the mail today, good lookin out…
MLB must stop calling the USA/CAN annual pro league final the “World Series”, & its winner the “World Champion”.
I watched the 2006 World Baseball Classic, IMHO the REAL WORLD SERIES

My pathetic countrymen from USA finished in 8th place. USA probably had the most talent, but they don’t play well as a team, & baseball is a team sport.
Gringo,
You having an opinion about America’s pastime is like me having an opinion about futbol. I like the colorways of the Boca Juniors zapatos, but my opinion ends there.
^fock that Dallas. You’re dead wrong (c) BIG
I was the biggest Stan of the Minnesota Twins in 1987 back in elementary. I had my Homer Hanky & all that. Word to Al Newman. Back then I could cite you the MLB stats from reading the sports page & my 1987 Topps factory set of baseball cards.
I don’t follow baseball closely now, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t know about the fundamentals of baseball, or that I don’t have a valid opinion.
DaMN Gringo, sensitive e-thugs need a hug? I didn’y say that your opinion was invalid. If you understand my inference properly then you would have seen that I said your opinion was limited.
I’m glad you like the Twins with Molitor, Hrbek and the Puck, but c’mon my nigga, the Puck is dead now. R.I.P. Kirby. Get a new squad and quit yer bitchin’!
My new squad in 2006 was Team USA. We got beat by non-powerhouse Mexico! To Team USA, I say “No mames buey!”
Maybe this is a sign of the apocalypse?
USA beats Mexico in FUTBOL, in the 2002 R16 of the World Cup
Mexico beats USA in BASEBALL, in the 2006 WBC
them third world cats is the TRUTH. When niggas play ball with a fuckin tree branch and dead cat head, trust they gonna play well with a bat and real ball.
Not that I care, I’ll take an interest in baseball again when the Dodgers go back to BK.
