Drabble by Kevin Fagan for July 07, 2013
Transcript:
TV: The count is 3 and 2, bases loaded... Here's the pitch... Ball four! He walks in tying the run! Ralph: Dagnabbit! June: I should have never come in the room! Every time I watch, the team loses! Ralph: Believe me, Honeybunch, it has nothing to do with you! The team doesn't know you exist, much less when you're watching them on TV! You really don't have that much power, you know! TV: ... And now a grand slam has broken the game wide open! Ralph: Will you please get out of here before we fall out of the pennant race?!!

She must have been watching the Red Sox today. Seriously, up 7-3 in the 9th and you lose?

My mother’s that way with LSU. Any time she watches them, they play poorly. If she gets disgusted and turns them off, they start playing better.
