Lost Derek Jeter
The blemish could be neater
A-Rod's a cheater
Nearing the end of September. As a fan of the game of baseball, I watch the contested races with enthusiasm, but I can’t get over how money makes the game cheap and slut-like. Still, the ball is thrown and caught and sometimes hit, and that is what keeps me intrigued. That a game invented over 100 years ago has the same measurements today. Only the names have been changed to protect the innocent.
Peace

Yes. Keeping our eye on the ball, I think the key here. Nothing like the sound when the bat hits the ball. Nothing. Batter up.
money is now leveler, always has been but even more so now. Everything is counted in bucks! Thanks for the visit to my blog. enjoy the weekend!
i love your cheeky post today!
you have me smitten for a certain someone i have loved forever. i can close my eyes and see his crush my heart smile, as his bat smacks the ball and part of me; seemingly to heaven. he runs like the wind, and i am standing in a sea of friends cheering him on!
when life does not open the door to the fulfillment of love, we get to have that lump in our hearts, that inhaling of dreams and hopes that never fail to lift us outside of the here and now into a landslide home run of eternal love. thank you for taking me back....
Put me in coach........

Lee watches more than I do but that's a great haiku.
Go Diamondbacks.
I am appreciating your haiku and clever post even without loving baseball! GLad to see you back, missed you for a few weeks!
Too bad about the degeneration of the game, isn't it?
Always thought A-rod was a rapper...silly me. I will quote my mom now, when she heard baseball should be played on fresh mown grass.
"Baseball should be played on broken glass"...my mom always has the best answer.

Too bad the kids look up to these guys so much! Shame on them! Have a great weekend! and may your team win!
This is cuter than ever!!! Gotta love a haiku that rhymes AND makes sense!
Perfect! My thoughts exactly!
this kind of blemish is what has spoiled this sport for me!
When I first moved to the US it was my husband and father-in-law's mutual enthusiasm and knowledge that made me love a sport I'd never followed. The first trip to Fenway was a revelation and I cried when we sat in the stands at Cooperstown to watch an exhibition game.
It is a perfect game. Thanks for the post and your saucy haiku that encapsulates how things have changed.
I'm irritated with the whole lot of 'em right now.
*laughing* Doesn't stop me from watching the Cubs that he-who-is-a-fan watches.
I almost find myself rooting for them!
This from a die hard Yankee fan.
Yes, even I'm shaking my head....
Fun rhyme! even for a non-baseball fan like me.
