To get back on topic
Here is another great moment when I realized that I play ootp waaaaay to much...Game six of the Federal League Championship series 1952, the Phoenix Dukes lead by one run over the Dallas Bandits. Samuel Palermo, beloved cf for the Dukes, makes a game winning catch at the wall to send the dukes to the series and win the pennant. I jumped out of my chair and pumped my fist about three times. The above mentioned girlfriend(see earlier post) looks up from her book and shakes her head. I quickly explained that Palermo had been in baseball hell for the past five seasons playing for the lowly Las Vegas Rhinos and he is a consistent threat to win the golden bat every year and he deserves to be in the series. It means so much to the city of Phoenix, yada, yada, yada. After I've explained all this I get a pat on the head and she leaves the room to go and read in the bedroom. How anyone could leave during all that excitement is beyond me...
