It would be naive of me to think that anybody who reads this series consistently does so for my advice on picking players and/or teams in both Streak games I play. You come back every day to see how I have bungled everything up again and the majority of the time I don't disappoint. Take for instance yesterday's contest. I had to pick LOSERS and I still couldn't get the job done. I was done in by hits from the likes of Gordon Beckham, Travis Snider, and Chris Young. CHRIS FUCKING YOUNG. The guy who we here at Bleeding Your Colors (primarily Lou) went on a summer long crusade to get designated for assignment from the Mets dons Yankee pinstripes and all of a sudden becomes relevant? I'm taking Robinson Cano and Victor Martinez, two reliable players for me over the course of 2014, to get hits today but I am still stewing over checking the contest tab and seeing this dickhead smiling as he splattered diarrhea all over my chances at $5,000.
The innocent can never last
wake me up when September ends
like my father's come to pass
seven years has gone so fast
wake me up when September ends
here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are
as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when September ends
summer has come and passed
the innocent can never last
wake me up when September ends
ring out the bells again
like we did when spring began
wake me up when September ends
here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are
as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when September ends
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when September ends
like my father's come to pass
twenty years has gone so fast
wake me up when September ends
wake me up when September ends
wake me up when September ends
