don't take it personally

so i ask myself (and anyone who cares to answer) how in the world does tbs get the baseball playoffs when they suck at sports announcing and their only experience is televising braves games and the braves have mediocre ratings because the braves have not won in quite a while so the really good talking heads are not attracted to and single-team sports announcer crews are seldom well-rounded or interesting because they have not been on a national stage and cater to their audience which is, in this case, southern us, which is, for me, not educated or sophisticated enough to be interesting and the evidence is in the repetitive superficial jagged commentary because they don't really know enough to do much else but read scripted repetitive pablum written by people more interested in ratings than baseball so i am bored and considering turning the sound off and listening to music while i glance up at the game especially since jackson is going to be home late again and she wants to watch the game more than i do even though she has to run out of the room and distract herself because she gets too anxious to sit still and watch because she has natural anxiety but also knows her cubs well and they haven't won it all in her lifetime (or her parents lifetime or likely even her grandparents lifetimes) so the concept of winning it all is so exciting and unknown that it produces anxiety especially in people who like to know if you know what i mean...

so?...
