A Mariner's fan! Wow, maybe one day you too will be
able to proudly say that it's been over 80 years since
your team won the WS!

World Series?? I'd be happy if the Mariners beat the Yankees in the playoffs - any round. Can't stand the Yankees - because they keep beating the M's in the post-season...of course, after the last two series with Boston and the way Pedro pitched, I can't stand them either!!

A reporter who was strolling by sees the incident, and rushes over to interview the boy.

"Young Bruins Fan Saves Friend from Vicious animal....", he starts writing in his notebook.

"But I'm not a Bruins fan," the little hero replied.

"Sorry, since we're in Boston, I just assumed you were," said the reporter and starts again.

"Red Sox Fan Rescues Friend from Horrific Attack,..." he continued writing in his notebook.

"I'm not a Red? Sox fan either!", the boy said.

"I assumed everyone in Boston was either for the Bruins or the Red Sox. So what team DO you root for?", the reporter asked.

"I'm a Yankees fan!", the child beamed.

The reporter starts a new sheet in his notebook and writes, "Little Bast>>d from New York Kills Beloved Family Pet."

Love it! Love it! Love it!

One of the Sox gets a base hit. The dog jumps up and down.

Later, one of the Sox hits a home run. The dog starts doing flips.

The Sox win the game. The dog jumps in the air, comes down on his hind legs and walks the length of the bleachers.

The other guy turns to the dog owner and says, "That's absolutely amazing. But what does he do if they win the World Series?"

The dog owner replies, "I don't know. I've only had him for 120 years."

Is that "dog" years,Mark?Let's see-120 dog years would be 840 real years.Means the Bosox should win a World Series about....!

Change "Red Sox" to "Expos" and you'd have to calculate in metric years - and worse yet - in French!!! YIKES!!!

Of course, the dog would be one of those damn girly poodles.

Here's the scenario. The Red Sox and Cubs win their respective pennants. The World Series begins and each team wins 3 games.

With the score tied after 9 innings in game seven, the players go on strike and MLB decides to award the championship to the top AAA winner. Believe it or not, the Portland Beavers become the champs.

Yeah - and pigs just flew past my window.

A gentleman from Texas dies and goes to hell. When he gets there he meets the Devil, who promptly turns the heat up and the Texan just laughed. When asked why he was laughing, the Texan replies,"It's hotter in Dallas in May than this."

So the Devil turns up the heat again, which just makes the Texan laugh harder. When the Devil inquires about what's funny, the Texan replies,"You haven't even reached the heat in Austin in July."

So the Devil turns the heat all the way up and the Texan is rolling around on the ground laughing hysterically, during which he says,"You haven't even come close to Houston in August."

So the Devil thinks,"I'll show this guy," and turns the heat all the way down to where ice is forming on everything in hell. All of a sudden he hears the Texan whooping and hollering and raising an awful ruckus. So the Devil asks the Texan,"What's so funny now?" to which the Texan replies,"The Rangers just won the World Series!!!"
