America’s Game
Thursday, January 3rd, 2008 by Ross Grant
“I make my living off the evening news. Just give me something-something I can use. People love it when you lose, they love dirty laundry!”, once sung by an American artist before he sold out to Walmart. Interesting that the Major League Baseball steroids non-issue, a decade too late, is coming to a head during an election year. Imagine that. Hey Republican stiffs, we love home runs, we don’t want snakes and sparklers! We want whistling bungholes, spleen splitters, whisker biscuits, honkey lighters, Hüsker Düs and don’ts! Cherry bombs, nipsy dazers, with or without the scooter stick … and at least one Whistling Kitty-Chaser!! Hey, we all loved the home-runs in the 90s. Especially the owners that whisked the cash out of our working class pockets like a slick carney hustler. Now they want to sucker us in twice by making us believe that, ten years later, they give a shit about the integrity of America’s game. Well they don’t, they just want to get re-elected.
