GET OUTTA MY HEAD!!!
Agreed and well-said.
I prefer not to.
Hamlet, I’d love to get outta your head, but the 78-year-old bottle-blonde in a camouflage bikini and gladiator sandals keeps blocking the door.
PS: You are the wind beneath my wings.
One last item. Given present company, I should have added “Trading Spaces” and “Iron Chef” to my list of geekery.
I call her “Genie Maximus”
You know, I was going to agree with the OP, but I remember sobbing when the Jazz lost the Championship. And I remember sobbing again the next year when they lost the Championship. And I count the Broncos first Superbowl win to be literally the happiest day of my life.
But you baseball fans are freaks. 
And Gundy, Buffy the Vampire Slayer is NOT just a pet diversion.
It’s a way of life.
The documentary Baseball by Ken Burns posited that it was never clear whether ‘fan’ originally stood for fanatic or fancier.
Just wanted to say that I don’t think one should judge all baseball fanship by this year’s postseason.
The Cubs and the Red Sox both being in the playoffs made this an event above and beyond the usual Series race. Had they both won, it would have been the End Of the World Series. So it drew in fans of all stripes, as well as people who normally don’t follow baseball, and increased the intensity of loyal Cubs and Sox fans. Likewise, the release of Phantom Menace (not the film itself) was an event not only for Star Wars fanatics, but also film fans in general, along with people who just wanted to be able to say they’d been there because it was such a big deal. And I daresay that a lot more people, who don’t usually vote even after a six-month campaign, voted in the recall election, (barely two months of campaigning), because that, too, was an event.
You mean you don’t know about baseball statistics? There are some insanely detailed records going back more than 100 years already, and you can be sure there will still be announcers quoting those stats 100 years from now
