I'm not a protagonist for Harper....was just saying that would be fairly typical result for a pro Washington sports team.
Harper did make a great throw to the plate last night. Nabbed Soto. (shouldn't have sent him, but it was a great through few could make)
I have not really kept up with Harper this year. I'm not that big a baseball fan. I can barely hang with sort of following the Nats.
Skins looked good last night though
I didn't even realize they were on. I was home late and just came across it after my wife had finished watching (and this is the truth) Beauty and the Beast. I sat through 20 minutes of that while I was eating dinner. It was....unwatchable (I'm still talking about Beauty and the Beast, not the Skins). The Skins, on the other hand....ALSO unwatchable. Although I have to say, now I just sit and shake my head and chuckle, whereas, I used to get frustrated and angry. Now....I just don't care. I watched about 15 minutes of the game, just to watch, but had no emotional stake in it and that was the sum total of all the NFL I watched this week - 15 min. The Skins always look so good on the big Monday night games
I thought the ESPN announcers were Gawd Awful though. Geez, where are they digging these guys up. I know Ebonics is acceptable in some LA suburb schools, but this is network TV for crying out loud. Just because you were once an overpaid, under-performing NFL player, does not mean they should hand you a microphone and ask you to comment after every play. (I am making big assumptions based on 15 minutes - I honestly don't know who the crew was)
The NFL is trash. They let the core values of the players move from hard work, team play and success to hype, trash talk, and entertainment. It is pathetic. I am no longer a fan. I guess I have known that for years. I don't know how true diehard football fans can watch anymore. Must be ALOT of beer sold on Sundays now.
C'MON NHL SEASON!!!
