Is there any chance we can get Kerry throwing the first pitch of the WS? |
|
Just think... In Boston, in front of his home crowd. He has done it before so we know he won't get booed. What do you think? Good Idea?

2. Didn't the last toss make the rounds for ridicule? |
|
I seem to remember all the "compassionate conservatives" spending megaliters of hit air ridiculing Kerry for a "wimpy toss" last time.
But I like the idea. It reminds everyone who's daddy bought him a baseball team.

The unfortunate holders of Harken Energy stock bought the Texas Rangers for *. After he engaged in insider trading. Then the other real owners of the Rangers let him in because of "Who's hos Daddy!" Then the taxpayers of Arlington Texas let him milk them for a new stadium. Then that Asshole, Tom Hicks bought him out for more than a $12 million profit. Then * had the dough to run for Governor. And the rest is history, as they say.

3. As a Kerry supporter and MA Red Sox fan |
|
I hope he stays away from the World Series
This is ALL ABOUT THE SOX:I think the fans want it purely baseball.Let's not clutter it up with anything else
Stay in Battleground states and relax by watching the games each night - that's my advice to Kerry

politicians at sporting events.

6. Maybe, but they'd only do that if Bush gets to throw out one |
|
in one of the games, probably in the National League park.
I'm sure Major League Baseball doesn't want to appear partisan in any way shape or form. Too many fans from either side of the political spectrum.
