« Game Over | Heading Out »


Withdrawal

Not even a good Monday Night Football game could fill the void of baseball being over. I wanted to stay at home today and watch 10 hours of consecutive baseball, but I couldn’t fit in the first two games. Fortunately, they were both blowouts. Tonight’s game is a hoot though. Santana is shutting out the Yankees, but he’s not quite at his best. He’s given up six hits in five innings, but he’s had the help of four double plays. Mussina has given up a run. And that’s the difference.

A couple of weeks ago, I talked about a duel of franchises. Brian and I will square off in a debate on which was Sparky’s best team, the 1975 Reds or the 1984 Tigers. We’ll look at each position individually to determine who had the better squad.

Then, I came up with a marvelous idea. What if we could actually recreate a series between the two teams. Or several series!!! Then I thought, “we can do that.” Diamond Mind Baseball!!!

I personally have never tried the simulation, but the website makes it sound sweet. So I asked Brian if he’d buy it.

And the cheap bastard said no. Something about formula and diapers. And yeah, his wife’s out of work, but the dude has gold in basement. He can afford the simulation.

Then he proposed that I buy the simulation. Being self employed, I live a spartan lifestyle. I don’t think I could fit it into my budget. It looks like we’d need to come up with $90 to buy the game, and the two season disks.

So, unless someone wants to buy it for us, I have a proposition. Brian said if he could pick half of the money from google over the next couple of months, he’d spring for the simulation. Then we’ll know the truth. And we can handle the truth. The 1975 Reds would mop the floor with the 1984 Tigers.

So if you want to help out, go over to Tigerblog. Just underneath the first entry, and just above some rotating banner ads, you’ll see the google ads. Click there like a mad man. Come back every day if you want.

It’s for a good cause :-). It will prove me right!!!
