boycotting the World Series

[TklDuo-Ann]

I SO wanted to see the Sox and Cubs play! 🙁 I love underdogs. Since neither of them made it to the world series, I'm not going to even bother watching. Anybody with me?

Ann

OK....so, maybe I'll watch. 😉 🙄

 

[the_Baron]

i share your disgust. but as leaders in the tickle community, we must brush aside our own indulgences and rally for the support of the marlins. the yankees are the evil empire that is the root of all sin and depravation in this unholy earth.

i think they may have been solely responsable for the tempting of eve in the garden (near the stadium), that fateful day.

 

[JPie1]

I will be sitting in front of my TV screen for every out!!


Go Yankees!!!


Signed a die hard Yankee Fan!

but as leaders in the tickle community

Huh??? 😕 🙄

 

[Daumantas]

I'm with you, Jen. I'd so much rather have seen the underdogs win. Who cares if the Yankees bring home their 8 bazillionth World Series win?

 

[TklDuo-Ann]

i share your disgust. but as leaders in the tickle community

If we're leaders, the community is in BIG trouble!!! 😛

Actually, now that the underdogs are out of it, I'm pulling for the Yankees. Hey! Evil empire or not, I'd rather see them win. There's just something fishy about those marlins. 😉

I'll boycott this World Series and the rest of the ones in my Lifetime. My god do I hate baseball. The only thing worse than watching baseball on TV is watching golf on TV.

 

[ShiningIce]

My god do I hate baseball. The only thing worse than watching baseball on TV is watching golf on TV.

AMEN

 

[the_Baron]

i feel like

johnny carson after a bad joke. obviously there is no connection with "leaders in the tickle community" and the world series. moreover, i don't know what a leader in this community would be. or how the community would be defined.

its all stream of consciousness, poetic liscense banter.

but you all knew that!

 

[AphxA]

this world series is going to be great for new york in general. Its going to put money back into the city.

but ugh...i will be cheering for my yankees tomorrow in game 1. hehehe😛

 

[amk714]

I also wanted the Cubs and Sox, but I think (and hope) the Marlins will beat the Yankees. I believe Florida has the better team and deserve to win the World Series more.

 

[njjen3953]

I'm with you, Jen. I'd so much rather have seen the underdogs win. Who cares if the Yankees bring home their 8 bazillionth World Series win?

Daumantas,
My response of "huh?" was about giggleBaron calling himself a leader of the tickling community. I had no idea we had leaders and had never heard of him until a month or so ago and I have been around for several years.

 

[Deleted member 2452]

as a friend reminded me a couple nights ago

i have been down on baseball since they had their first strike, several years ago.

i had hoped the cubs would win, cause it would have made my father so happy.

since that is now no longer an option, i won't be watching, nor even caring what happens.

a bunch of over paid premadanas, playing a kids game!

[natural tickler]

first of all, I knew Shining Ice would agree with Iggy. secondly, i wouldn't blame anybody if nobody watched this series. but, the good news is that the foundations have been laid for good cubs and red sox teams for years. so sooner or later we'll get the series we begged for. And Jen, Ann, why can't we be leaders of the tickling community?😉

 

[Knox The Hatter]

Good question: "why can't we be leaders?..." you'd be in your own mind. You haven't given me a good enough reason for me to consider you as such, Natural. No offense intended, but that's how I feel.
I guess everyone knows how I feel about things. I jumped on the Cubs bandwagon, which was dumb. What was I thinking? The Cubs couldn't win the pennant in a league of mentally retarded quadrapalegics. As for the Series, I now would sooner turn on the "700 Club".

 

[njjen3953]

And Jen, Ann, why can't we be leaders of the tickling community?😉

Who are you refering to when you say WE? Everyone on TMF?

 

[natural tickler]

Yeah, Jen, that's what i meant. Everyone on TMF. We all think we're leaders in our own minds, so why not?

And Knox, it's only bandwagn jumping if only you recently became a Cubs fan, not a long-time one. And Knox, I didn't know there was a league of mentall retarded quadrpalegics!! Damn, that's harsh. but you know, the way you're sounding you'll be back on the wagon next year. Wagon boards in April 1, 8:00a.m. be there.

 

[TickledToDeath]

I'm with ya, Ann.

While I will be quietly rooting for the Marlins, I will not watch a single game. Time for Hockey as far as I am concerned.

[Knox The Hatter]

Well, you're right, and I admitted having jumped on this bandwagon about a week ago. I'd sooner stick a baseball bat up my ass than do it again.
At least my team won. For one brief shining moment, we banished the ghosts, trampled under the hooves of the police horses surrounding the track on the field at the Vet. If I live to be a hundred, it seems highly unlikely that the Cubs will ever advance beyond goats and black cats and uncaught foul balls, or being the butt of jokes, even from White Sox fans...

 

[natural tickler]

And which team Knox might that be??😕

 

[Knox The Hatter]

The '80 Phils. Incredible how some of us still live off of that one. Made all the subsequent SHIT somehow bearable.
The current team, as fitted, wouldn't even have an outside shot. Too many holes... 😡

 

[Knox The Hatter]

I think the WS starts tonight. I might wind up watching one of those shows where the neighbors come into your house and redecorate your bedroom without you knowing it. It is an alternative...

 

[natural tickler]

Hey, I need to watch that show too, Knox. I am doing some remodeling as we speak....

 

[njjen3953]

Although I would have liked the Red Sox to be in it because McGyver Tklr likes them, tonight, instead of staying home, we are going out to my favorite karaoke place to entertain the masses.

Oh crap!!!! I just remembered that my favorite karoake place happenes to be a sports bar.

Oh well. I guess I will just have to do my best Merman belt songs tonight. 😛

 

[TklDuo-Ann]

LOL So, sing "Take me out to the ballgame"!!! 😛
