Why I Hate Professional Sports!

Hey Batter-Batter, watch the Birdee!

 

Hmm, why did that ‘Ol radio song Tell Me Why I Don’t like Monday’s come screaming upon my mental Jukebox, Eh?

 

Otay, so I’m completely, One Zillion percentage aware of how nebulous professional “Stick ‘n Ball” Sports reach is. But that doesn’t mean I have to like it!

 

Case-in-point. One of the few reasons I’ve still hung onto my outrageously overpriced Cable TV service. Wool looki’ Thar’, Y’all! They’ve just silently tacked another $7 monthly increase onto my bill, Jack Arses! Uhm have I mentioned their motto lately? Spectrum, We Care! Especially since my programming choices so vastly improved Cough-Cough, Oh Never Mind!

 

AnyHoo’ Silly me! Thinking I’d sit down to “watch”, Err listen to Saturday’s MotoGP Sprint race from Motegi on Tru TV, Steee-rike!

 

As I was totally insensed that instead of Tru TV’s usual El Stupidio programming, i.e.; Impractical Jokers or the World’s Dumbest. As talk about the worst programming on the entire Cable TV spectrum…

 

But No! Instead it was some Talking Hedz’ blathering on about baseball, before they ran what felt like 18mins ‘O Commercials, Stee-rike 2! They sent us straight, or was that a Fernando Valenzuela Screwball? Directly to Game 1 of the Cleveland Guardians vs. Detroit Tigers; You’re Out!

 

As once again motorsports pays the price for Stick ‘n Ball sports mania!

 

Making me wonder how IndyCar’s gonna fare upon FOX next year? Especially wondering what the over/under is when an IndyCar Qualifying or Practice session gets Bumped for something more “lucrative” on either of it’s FS1 or FS2 Seester’ channels? Just sayin’, Ole!

 

Then again, I suppose it was a good thin I missed Saturday’s Sprint race. Since I didn’t know thee Martinator’ had crashed during Qualie’ and was starting P11, Youch!

 

Although Jorge Martin did Damage limitation during both races, only losing eleven points to (Francesco) Pecco’ Bagnaia. Seeing His points lead shrink to a razor thin ten markers.

 

Whilst I missed All of the action Down Under on Phillip Island, Mates!
