According to internet sources the word hooligan means unruly and destructive behavior.  The players by no means are showing behavior of this manner,  but if the lack of making adequate progress continues , I have a feeling the FANS could definitely start showing hooliganism.  US Cell could get pretty ugly , fights could be started and more and more booooing could be prevalent. Those Office Max signs will not be so joyous too !   Those of us fans at home could also get in on the action  by starting to throw things at our television and snapping at our poor significant others!  There could also be signs of more and more empty seats at the Cell.  This indeed isn’t poor behavior , but sends a STRONG  message that we the FANS are getting a bit fed up.    Most of us fans thought the past road trip was the turning point on what has thusfar been a pretty bleak season , but no dice.  This homestand has been uncalled for .  We were not supposed to lose 3 games to the lowly and scrappy A’s. That series should of been won easily.  The bottom feeders of the AL Central kicked our behinds tonight in yet another shutout ( and by Pavano who has been considered a decent pitcher , but nothing that would make you go WOOOOW )!!  We now have 9 terrible shutouts on our 09 record.    US Cellular is a hitting park and the bats over the past 4 days have been colder than some of those January days we encountered this past winter. Gordon Beckham was brought up to help be our “savior” or “golden boy”.  It appears that his defense looks pretty good , but why hasn’t he been patient and taking pitches ?  He so far appeared very eager to just swing at anything !!  He is young and he does have talent, but I feel he was RUSHED up to the majors. I might be wrong with my analysis and hopefully he can prove me WRONG (Did I mention he looks alot like one of my first boyfriends several years ago back when I was a competitive skater ? — ohh okay off topic .. back on now ).   I have nothing against Dewayne Wise, but seeing him up at the plate is making me really nervous. I am clueless as to why Ozzie has such faith in the guy.  Buehrls Last night didn’t look too good and tonight Danks looked shaky and had a hard time hitting the strike zone.  My head is spinning and my skin is crawling as I am writing this.  I don’t drink ,but if I did I would be drowning my sorrows in some liquid courage and maybe indeed show hooligan behavior. This blog here helps me get it all out , so no need for that.  

     Tomorrow is a new day , maybe the trend will change and the boys can see a win and break this four game losing streak ?  Floyd is up on the hill and had a pretty good start the other night only allowing two runs on four hits.  Sower’s didn’t have a great outting against the Yanks the other night and displayed some serious control issues.   Let us hope ,wish, and believe that this 4 game road block clears !  

Thanks for reading — have a great night !!
