Take Me Out to the Ball Game!

Those who have debated with me know that I am a very passionate person. I will not debate with people on a topic I do not know because I do not like to look like an idiot, I do that enough on my own, especially today when I fell into a hole in the swamp. There are such topics that can get almost anyone going: abortion, the war, the BP oil leak, global warming, but none so much as the dreaded topic of domed stadiums.

Let me fill you all in here. I hate domed stadiums, and the ONLY time I think they are acceptable is when the weather conditions are too hot, THAT'S IT! I absolutely do not condone the use of domed stadiums in football what-so-ever. Some people, however; feel much differently.

I am a regular visitor of a site called Redsoxchat.com and we like to keep things very light, however; there are times when we do get into some serious debates (note: at this time Allie and I are on mic giving our usual very colorful color commentary). What went from a discussion about dehydration went into a discussion about the atrocities of domed stadiums. You see, we have a couple of Colts fans in chat, and well, yeah, I won't say anything mean, but you can see how they would feel.

Anyways, one of the chatters decided to cut the tension by mentioning one of Allie's favorite players, Coco Crisp. This would prove to not be a good idea, as it just regenerated all the "hatride" (that misspelling is for a future post, stay tuned!!) Allie had for not only domed stadiums but a specific team that plays in a dome in which Coco Crisp got into a fist fight with. This team if you haven't guess it is the Typa Bay Rays!! Yes, that's right, move over Tampa Bay, there's a new team in town!!! In her defense, she did catch herself midway through with a Typa....Tampa Bay, but it wasn't a good enough save as I caught on and made note of it with laughter. We're all friends, if you can't joke with us, who can you joke with?

In case anyone was wondering, the Red Sox won 2-1 and Dice-K actually pitched good. 6 games back, don't count us out yet!
