Another baseball game with the l jgirl on Saturday, and wouldn't you know it they lost again. That is far from the worst of it, however. Every game has a "Hardee's hitter of the game." If the particular Hardee's hitter happens to get a hit, everyone in the stands is promised a coupon for something at Hardee's. Well of course I'm cheerin' my ass off for Osvaldo to get a hit (while the old guy two rows down is cheering for Orlando?) and he gets a hit! Yay! Many innings later, the game is over and what do I get?


Come on! I was even planning to stop by on the way home to use it, but nooo, it is only valid a handful of hours each day. Well, I'll try not to be too bitter, the game was quite exciting. You can see from this action shot that we might have actually won if:

• The 3rd baseman wasn't checking out some girl in the opposing team's dugout


• The left fielder would stop walking toward the sun light.


• The shortstop didn't keep looking to make sure his shoes were tied


• The umpire also didn't keep looking to make sure HIS shoes were tied

All excitement considered, I'd go again. Stupid Hardee's coupon.
