Hubris

Jump to Comments

Posted to Nationals Journal this morning after the Nationals took the Yankees series 2 out of 3.

    Hubris

    If you were to Google
    “Closer Mike MacDougal”
    You’ll find the hits are pretty frugal

    If you try your search again
    with “Yankee Joba Chamberlain”
    Amazing how the hits roll in

    Now go ahead and slam in
    “Nats Pitcher Craig Stammen”
    It’s a veritable hit famine

    Having gathered all those stats in
    Now softly, sweetly tap in
    “Yankees lose and Nats win”

    You’ll find the Daily News a-yappin’
    “How the hell could this have happened?
    They’re the team we took a crap in!

    And when did all our hitters
    Turn into bailing quitters?
    I am bitter – bitter – bitter!”

    Oh sweet Bessie how I love it
    The unbridled hubris of it
    They can take their team and shove it

    Go Nats!
