Weiners and Pucks

Okay ladies and gentlemen. Deep down I have a good heart and a kind soul, I promise. However on the outside, I have biting humor and sarcasm. This is coupled by my ability to just people watch and some call it judgmental well I call it humor!

So I had a weekend of sports fun! I watched the Nationals bite it on Saturday. the new stadium is pretty clutch and I was impressed by it and the food was a much needed improvement! However, never have I felt more hated by the concessions workers as I did that day. I was like wow this is terrible, but of course I choose this one time to keep my big mouth freaking shut because several of these ppl could have beat me up by crushing me with the sheer body weight. I was amused like a five year on Ritalin (oh wait I was this once) with the ice cream in the mini baseball hats! I havent had one of those since GroundRound went out of business by my house in PA.

I did see a guy walking from the metro on the way to the game with a Let Teddy Win tshirt. I thought this was genius and proceeded to talk about this with my friends and the naturally loud volume that my voice is. Aka I tend to say embarrassing shit really loudly when everyone else decides to be quiet just to smite me! That was pretty much all that amused me, it wasnt a night game so I dont have fun stories of encounters with drunk people at the game!

Needless to say I am excited for baseball season beginning as it is tradition for myself and several friends to attend about 5 to 10 games mostly night games so that we can have several over priced beers (I am also pissed at the increase in beer 5.50 to 7.50 I mean come on!) and then yell YO at the beer man because he is not seeing my wave my arms in most inappropriate manners to gain his attention.

Sunday I went to Game 2 for the Capitals V Flyers series. Okay I am a philadelphia girl currently residing in DC. Friends were able to hook me up with some awesome lower level tickets for the game. Of course I have to attend the game with my flyers jersey. My close friend J wore her Senators jersey hahaha nice! It was at this game that I beginning to doubt all those surveys that call Philadelphians the fattest people in the nation. Or maybe there were just a lot of "large" people in my section. Anyways there were a few of us flyers fans in my row, friends of friends and the such. I was happy to be in the lower level a) because the seats were clutch b) because heckling of opposing teams fans seems to be lower here. I chalk this up to a lot less drinking in the lower level. I frequent the nose bleeds more than enough in the WAC(wachovia arena for all those morons) and yep people tend to drink more and yell a lot more obscenities. Oh wait I am one of those people!

Anyways I walked away from the game victorious feeling vindicated after fridays lose with not only a win but a shutout! Series resumes on Tuesday in Philly, my father will be attending because he as season ticket so I hope he brings them luck back home. And I am banning my friend D from watching them on TV because they only win when he is in person at games and they lose miserably when he watches!

Go Flyers! (this is futile as we will surely face the penguins, and well they are hot right now. Damn you Sidney Crosby!!!)

Genius? Oh my. I won't lay claim to that, but it is common sense. People of good conscience know that justice is due in the presidents race. Let Teddy Win!
