1. Overheard at last week’s game
Random dude sitting next to me: Y’know, I don’t think “Boston Militia” is a very good name.
Me: OK.
RD: I think they should be called “The Steel and Velvet”.
Me: O…K.
RD: Steel ’cause they’re hard and tough, right? And velvet because they’re also soft!
Me: Soft.
RD:: Y’know, like sweet.
Me: Yeah. You’ve never been to any of their afterparties, have you?
RD: No. Can I come to one of the afterparties?
Me: No.
RD’s friend: Dude, that’s the third person who’s told you that name sucks. Let it go.
2. My take on the impending epic rematch between Boston & DC tonight, in the form of a haiku
Hey, DC Divas –
I don’t think this game will go
like you think it will.
