The Red Sox are so typcal Red Sox. They dont deserve such loyal fans. They couln’t have done any worse this last month if they were paid to throw the season.
I remember when I was a kid, the only hill nearb yto slide on was in the middle of an arboretum, allowed to go wild. There were trees all over and one narrow path to slide on. The problem? If you went straight all the way there was a tree in the middle of the path at the bottom. If you veered left you would go off into the middle of a busy street The right side was just a forest of trees. One had to jump off the sled before the end or you would hit the tree head on. I thought it was great fun. Once in a while after a really big snow storm, they would close our street and we could slide unencmebered bycars but there was no adrenaline rush. It wasn’t nearly as much fun as having the tree in way.
It’s too bad because Waterson is penalizing the readers who are guiltless. We have no control over what the syndciates require of him. Perhaps he could save these strips and put them into an anthology. No syndcates to deal with and he could contract on his own terms.
I used to say this everynight. I went to bed at 6:000. I used to hang out the window in the summer time and talk to my friends who all got to stay up later.
