Houston Team 5
Texas Team 1

Howdy! I guess y’all have heard that I’m not Governor of this great state anymore, and I tried to pass off my recappin’ duties to that new fella, Abbott, but he wouldn’t have it. “Nossir,” he said, “I’ve got plenty to do figurin’ out what you were doin’ the last 15 years.”
Of course that’s just nonsense. I was providing the balanced budget and low taxes that fueled the Texas miracle, and I was writin’ recaps at the same time. He ought to be able to crank out a recap or two when the Silver Boot is on the line, but I suspect he doesn’t know much baseball. My recaps would show him up, just like my record as Governor and President will do. Plus I’m worried that if I drop an important media spot like the front page of OWA, then Cruz will slip right in. You want to mix your baseball with political commentary? He’d be ‘splainin’ how he stood with each and every one of you courageous conservatives as you came together to reignite the promise of America by rooting for the Rangers!
Can you imagine? Someone writin’ a recap and not stickin’ to the game?
I went to that first game in Houston, but left in the fifth inning because there wasn’t any hitting. Who wants to watch a game like that? I went home and Anita and I watched basketball and planned my Presidential strategy. Just remember to contribute to the President Rick Pac, P-Rick Pac we call it. Anita reminded me to say that.
Well I reckon I better say something about today’s game, but there’s not much good. My team, the Texas team, was coming in with a pretty good week, having split a series with the Oakland Tax and Spenders, while the Astros had only scored three runs against the Subcontinentals. That McWho fella looked pretty good though, pitching 6 innings with 5 hits, 4 Ks, and 1 ER. Neshek, Qualls, and Gregerson shut things down with only one hit in the 9th by Fielder. The Houston team had 10 hits, with Marisnick getting 3 hits and 2 RBI, and Lowrie and Rasmus hitting homers.
Well tomorrow is another day, and maybe tomorrow the conservative Texas team will do better. You courageous conservatives will need to come together and join with me tomorrow to reignite the promise of America by rooting for the Rangers!
