It's the Most Miserable TIme of the Year

This time of year sucks. Why? Because there are no sports on TV. The Super Bowl just concluded and baseball is still two months away. That means all that's left to watch is basketball (A sport that always comes down to the last minute. Why don't I just tune in at the last minute and see if my team wins? Plus, there are way too many penalties in basketball to hold my interest in a game), tennis (which is just Pong with people running around, and chicks with bigger arms than me), or hockey (which may be the best option of the three. At least it provides some excitement. But still, scoring is always low. It's a little bit like soccer on ice, and you know how we Americans hate soccer. Right, David Beckham?). So, no thanks. I'd rather watch the NFL scouting combine and daydream about the draft.

Even when baseball does roll around, I don't get excited like I used to. Face it, baseball is in trouble. Bud Selig needs to do something ASAP. The season hasn't even started yet and we're already finding out that Barry Bonds and Alex Rodriguez, two of the biggest names in the game, tested positive for steroids. All these scandals turn people like me off when it comes to baseball. I want to watch a game and know that it's fair and every player is on the same playing field. Note to baseball: you guys are making Pete Rose look like a deserving Hall of Fame inductee now. I wouldn't even care if players were betting on the games. At least that doesn't ruin it for me. It just ruins it for them and their wallets. Baseball has become as untrustworthy as the government. So where is baseball's Barack Obama, savior figure?

Ugh! Wake me up when September begins...
