I feel like there are a lot of things that are getting Baseball and Olympic Sports Fans Fired Up and not in a good way. If I had to say 62 Home Runs by August 29th, that would be the sweetest Mama Mia of them all. Besides Injuries being Injuries, I feel that my arc of wanting the Record Book or the top of it is legit.
There is no way we'd Vote Astros into Cooperstown. We'd vote Negro League or Other Hard Cases before we get swept away into empty hype. I'd feel like wanting to annoy the Atlanta Braves into 1st Place, only to pump out Ticket Runs.
Even if we where of prose, there is nothing romantic with forced success. Even 108 was a Historical Footnote and not a Sharona. Romance would be waiting until 2027 for a Chicago World Series and Romance would be waiting until 2029 for a Red Sox-Cubs World Series. Both would be classics because of the empty and turbulent emotions that would consume the North Side of Chicago.
I would think fun would be a San Diego-Baltimore World Series and fun would be an Atlanta-Seattle World Series. Fun would not be Scoreboard Watching or having to hope someone just loses it for someone else to have fun.
