Thanks for really turning out tonight and not selling your seats to Cub fans.  Dickheads.

Hey now, don't lump the whole Diamond Level together.  My tickets were used by Eastexastro from this site.  I am sure he will tell me that he did nothing but heckle Cubs fans the whole game.
I love Geoff Leach.  Every day.

Yeah, gleach, you get a pass.  I just got sick of seeing those fat, goofy bastards in Cubs jerseys all night. 

Speaking of goofy bastards, that guy pitching for Chicago today has that typical Cub fan look.

The problem is that your boss is too cheap to shell out for the really good seats in the Diamond Club.  You know, the ones where you can be seen on TV so you can call all your friends and wave.

The textbook definition was the goober with Mardi Gras beads last night who had won the quarterly sales contest at his company and was rewarded with one (1) ticket for the contest and was calling the folks back home in Moline.  It was the greatest night in his life, next to winning 4th chair in the state tuba finals.

Yeah, we only tolerate fat, goofy bastards in Astros jerseys.  Where's my ticket...

An idiot in beads is a bit of light relief from having to see Tillman's ugly, oversized melon in the background every game.

The bigger problem is actually having friends to call.

That's just because we thought your last avatar was actually a self portrait.
