For the same reason why in Italy there are males going on a rampage on the street because their favorite soccer team lost the game.

Sports are pointless.

I mean...I would go on a rampage because of more serious things.
Like finding out that at the airport they lost my beauty case. :)

....your wife has no idea what an around-the-horn double play is after having watched you and you children play baseball for the last 40 years

First, I don’t have a wife or children. Second, I don’t play baseball or any other sport for that matter.

but she can remember the time I forgot to put a Bounce sheet in the drier back in 1997?

Wait, wait, wait…

My nonexistent wife somehow remembers that you forgot to put a Bounce sheet in the drier that long ago?

That’s it, I’m reporting your post for nonsensical content in the Games/Pics/Jokes/Stories forum!

Philistine! Sports are art. When a poet or a painter creates something, all they are trying to get is an emotional reaction from the viewer. Watch one of the MLB playoff games tonight. Those players are getting an emotional reaction from the viewers. They are a beautiful example of the human form in all it's glory, striving for perfection. It's improvisational, and ephemeral, but it is 100% art, and I've always felt genuine pity for anyone who doesn't see that. I would hate to live in a grey, drab world where all beauty was inert. I prefer the reality where a man or woman pushes themselves to the very limit in a kinetic show of resplendent distinction.

Of course, I may be over thinking this.

I think you're overthinking this.

It's called selective memory. Ever wonder why YEC can forget whole lectures on science within two weeks but remember bible passages? It's the same thing.

Around the horn double play isn't a euphemism?
I have no idea how baseball works ...in my country there is only the religion called soccer.

But around-the-horn makes me think of something sexual...especially because it involves sweaty hunks covered in mud playing baseball.

Yes.

Then I realized I don't have a wife, I don't play baseball, my children don't play baseball, and I don't use Bounce.

I still prefer an art gallery or a museum
