I know I said I was done, but I found this on the Internet at Metstradamus and had to share it. Fortunately, I don't have the kind of life where I have nothing to do but think about this kind of stuff. This is about 6-6-06 and baseball.
Why else would the schedule maker pit the Angels and the Devil Rays against each other on 06/06/06? Thankfully for the future of mankind, the Angels were victorious by a score of 12-2, so a defeated Satan had to search for his consolation prize, and find another recipient for his venom and his sick, demented sense of humor.
Enter, as usual, the New York Mets.
Who else but the prince of darkness could come up with a six run sixth inning against a future hall of famer who was running on a streak of six straight starts without a victory?
And I'm mildly sure that Kenny Lofton, who wears number six, was mildly involved in all of this somewhere.
And that's not even mentioning Jose Reyes' wrist problem from out of nowhere, which kept him out of the game tonight...or how about Cliff Floyd turning his ankle on level ground in the second forcing him to leave the game...or Carlos Beltran angering Satan by making an unreal diving catch, to which Satan replied by tweaking Beltran's back...although Carlos stayed in the game.
Ah, but Lucifer wasn't done there. He turned Jose Valentin, hero of the month past, back into a pumpkin as he made two errors in that sixth inning, and two more sloppy plays in the eighth inning further reminding us that if Kaz Matsui even hit a little bit, he would still be providing a wee bit of mobility at a middle infield position. This of course means that Kaz Matsui is a minion of Satan.
Of course the end of the game featured Eric Gagne...who's entrance music is "Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns 'N Roses. And we all know that GNR music was written and co-produced by Satan...at least according to Tipper Gore.
