Ok, so most of you know that I'm not really a big sports person.  I wasn't athletic growing up and never really got the hang of team sports (unless lazer tag counts, and I'm not even all that GOOD at it (though I have fun)).  I didn't even attempt to get semi-regular exercise until after I'd turned 21.  Actually, it was breaking my arm that kicked ( Read more... )

I'd like to see anybody who thinks marching band isn't physically taxing try to do it. yeah yeah, I know I only did it for a year, but I think that's what caused me to *lose* the freshman 15 instead of gaining it. *nods*.

And I know you're blindly loyal to CA but I'm going to have to agree to disagree. I pay about as much attention to sports as you describe yourself in this entry, but the A's are playing the Red Sox. *Pulls on her invisible Sox cap*. May the best team win. :p

Actually, NO, the "A's" aren't playing the Red Sox. Referring to the "A's" actually means that you're talking about the Oakland Athletics, a team that severely predates the Angels. Yes, their logos both involve giant letters A, but you're actually referring to a quite different team (that didn't do particularly well this year, I might add: under a 0.500 win average).

As I said, my sports knowledge is minimal. :p. Thank you for correcting me. :) I knew the Sox were playing some team with an A. Guess, I should do the research better, and to think that I'm a librarian!

Nononono, we're talking at cross purposes.

YES, the ANGELS are playing Boston.

What I meant before was that the A's AREN'T playing Boston, 'cause the A's are the Oakland Athletics. Make sense?

And yes, I know that they're officially the "Los Angeles Angels." Please see my comments to Fshk regarding that.

obviously my head is dead. I didn't mean to accidentally call them a team they weren't. Was just copying information on the last post.
