10 Reasons Why I Don’t Go to Ball Games
10. I was taken to too many games by my parents when I was a kid.
9. I suspect that I was sitting next to some hypocrites, because instead of paying attention to the game, they were talking to friends the whole time!
8. It seems the games are always scheduled when I want to do other things, like go to church.
7. The band played numbers I’d never heard before, not the good old fight songs.
6. I went to a lot of games but the coach never bothered to thank me!
5. The referees made decisions I couldn’t agree with! I don’t attend ball games, I hate ball games!
4. Often the game goes into overtime or extra innings, and I’d be late getting home.
3. The seats are too hard and uncomfortable, so I don;t attend ballgames.
2. The people I sat next to didn’t seem so friendly, so I don’t go to ballgames anymore.
All these seem like lame excuses, don’t they? Nothing but bad reasoning — lies — for not attending churc- er, ballgames.
And finally, the NUMBER ONE reason why I don’t attend ballgames….
***drum roll***
1. Every time I went they asked for money!
Thanks to Todd Friel from Wretched Radio for this one. 😉 Dude, you rock.




Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I'm a freelance writer for national media outlets like USAToday.com, Salon.com, and others. I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.

Yes, those are lame reasons, I agree!

This is so true. What a great way to show it.

It certainly seems ridiculous when you put it in this context. 🙂
