Fukudome...the next Jerome Walton?


I kid. I kid.

You know baseball is back when I'm sitting on the Brown Line hitting "refresh now" repeatedly on my phone on the way home from work. I did manage to scream like a crazy person after seeing "Fukudome hits 3-run homer." Scared the crap out of my fellow riders.

So they lost. So Theriot is going to be the death of me. So Kerry Wood was not a steal in round 27 of our keeper draft. So it only took one day to think the phrase "Oh yeah, we would totally rather have Fontenot than Murton in there when we need a clutch hit." So what. Just enjoy this clip and forget the rest (at least for a minute or two).




Awesome.

Go Cubs.

  1. Goat, what goat???
    I have a new theory which I was telling everyone who would listen before Mondays game. Now I'll tell you. There was no goat curse, the curse was the Japanese... Follow me here, Wrigley had purchased lights and all the materials to install them for the start of the '42 season. Then Pearl Harbor happened, he donated all the material back to the war movement and it took 40 some odd years to finally put them up..
    Had Wrigley had lights at the start of the'42 season I think it is likely there would have been a World Championship in our more recent past.
    So the heck with the Goat- Fukudome is our Savior.

    PS enjoyed reading your posts during Spring training, wish I could have made it this year.

  2. That's a new one. Makes about as much sense as bringing a goat the ballpark...being shocked that they won't let said goat in...then cursing the team for not allowing your barnyard pal to join you for the game.

    PS. Thanks.
