I’m off to a baseball game this evening. I know virtually nothing about how the game is played.
But there are Cracker Jacks and a time out for stretching. So what if I’m the only one who does a sun salutation at this point in the game.
I like how some of the athletes look in their little leggings, but appreciate that baseball uniforms are to men what skinny jeans and bubble skirts are to women – very few individuals actually look good in them.
I will be wearing my skinny jeans in solidarity.

I hope you enjoyed the game.

/ August 23, 20101) I LOVE going to baseball games. Who was playing at yours?
2) I’m also a huge fan of the skinny jean comparison. I never thought about it before, but I will now, for sure.

Jenn
/ August 25, 2010Sounds like a blast! And you know how I love my baseball. Who did you go see? And did you have plenty of peanuts and cracker jacks? Hope you had fun and learned a little bit more about America’s National Pastime.

/ August 26, 2010Ha, very true. Baseball is actually the only sport I like. Like, not love, but that has to be good enough. But when I go to games, occasionally, mostly all I do is eat. I think I like baseball because I mostly understand it, I watched my son play for a million years while he was in school so I learned a lot about the rules. Plus my husband is a sports-aholic, so I get a lot through osmosis.
Plus Johnny Damon is really cute. Goofy baseball pants or not.
