Everything, especially September 11th 2001, is relative to the sports world.....
It's like I didn't really have any kind of closure until this:
"It seems that you can say that it's only three years, and yet it seems like yesterday and yet it seems like its been with us our whole life," Yankees manager Joe Torre said Saturday. "You certainly need to move on, but taking a moment to say a prayer or think back to that horrible day three years ago, it's something that unfortunately, our children are going to have to grow up with for their whole life."
Because, yes, it does seem like it was just yesterday, and yet, miraculously, at the same time, it seems like it was a life time ago.
And also, I need to take a moment to say a prayer, 'cause... like... Jesus is the answer.
If only those damn Muslim freaks who killed a bunch of Americans knew that then. Damn. Y'know, we should get off our asses and start teaching them about the one true God.
And also, our children, plural, are going to have to grow up with this for their whole life, singular. So... y'know... that's a whole 'nother thing.
Man. I love sports.
But why don't professional athletes/coaches just shut the fuck up? Like... forever.
It's like asking Picasso, "Hey, Picasso, you paint and all... but what I think is that the public really wants to hear you talk about all this other shit you don't know a thing about."
