First, a random meme. I don't generally like memes, but this one looked like fun. Ganked from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
offspeed.
Make a list of all the characters in your icons. (Although you may have more than one icon of a single character, they only go on the list once.) Alphabetize it. Take the first two people on the list; that's your first pairing. Second two people; second pairing. Etc.
Alex Rodriguez/David Wells - uh. Um. It's horrible and bizarre, but am I insane for kind of wanting to see it?
Derek Jeter/Jason Varitek - Captain slash! Excellent! They can commiserate over their crazy teams and Jason can try to make Derek feel better about his also being crap. Yep, all kinds of hot here.
Jeremy Bonderman/Kevin Millar - Hmm. Bondo is cool and unemotional, and Kevin a big ol' bundle of emotion. Kevin has a history of drawing out quiet players and making them more outgoing (you know, if Manny counts as a history). There might be an interesting dynamic there. Maybe an AU where one of them ends up on the other team?
Kyle Farnsworth/Mike Maroth - Been done. Was hot. Next?
Shaun/Theo Epstein - Shaun of Shaun of the Dead, who does not appear to have a last name. Yeah, I don't know. I think Theo would have to have Shaun DFA'd. I love Shaun, don't get me wrong, but I also think he'd get up Theo's nose.
Thoughts?
On the topic of tonight's game, a letter.
Dear Alan Trammell,
Yes, I know you probably still feel stupid for pulling Nate last week and losing the game for your team. However, that does not need to translate into leaving JJ in when he is erratic, throwing wildly, and just doesn't have it. Why did you let him go into the sixth? Why did you then leave him in to give up four runs? Again, Tram, AGAIN, your team should have won this game, and if their manager paid attention to the pitching, they would have. You are not Lou Piniella, so quit trying to get yourself fired.
And yes, PHing Nook for McDonald proved to be a good idea, but that does not get you off the hook. Thanks a lot for wasting some fine work from the offense, including the rare Inge homerun and the suddenly reoccurring Pudge homer.
Stop it, Tram. Please. You are killing us.
Still A Little Love But Don't Damn Well Push Me,

Yes, I'm glad of the Sox win because we needed it to stay two and a half games over the Yankees, but GOD.
As for my other manager, that's five ejections this season. I love you, Tito, and I love when you get mad, because you work the sarcastic body language like nobody's business and it is so fun to watch. You get a cookie.
Ugh, I have to miss the game tomorrow because I was randomly scheduled to work second shift. Haaaate. Hopefully I'll be working with someone who will let me listen to the game, and hopefully the station will be nice and come in. *hopes*
Oh, and hate me if you wish, but that was a homerun. Just barely, and I've no idea how the umpires got the call right without benefit of much replay, but it was.

*whispers* You could also talk about A-Rod and David Wells being outsiders in the Yankees. Ya know, if you wrote / thought about that more.
