Funny, I just said those 2nd graders in this strip are so smart they’ll be reading Shakespeare by 3rd grade and here we are!

I’m with Michael. Give me fine lines over sidelines any day!!

On the rare occasions when I watch baseball, I find myself wanting to scream, “Throw the d___ ball already!”

I figure baseball would be michaels game. It is a thinkings mans game

I have thought about recording baseball games then editing all the boring things out and offering it for a nominal sum.

re: Nightgaunt 49—Sportscasters already do that. They just show the highlights and edit the entire game down to about 5 minutes. For Jaxradio; You’re right. It is a thinking man’s game. The fans sit there thinking they could be great players as they scarf hotdogs and beer. I’m thinking those thinking men average 50 pounds overweight.
