I think I waited too long to get tickets—there are none available. Must be because of the $5 ticket promotion. I guess I’m just not used to the idea of regular season sellouts, my franchise not being sufficiently storied.

Theres something about the Blue Jays that just gets on my nerves
along with the Indians and Athletics, there is just something about those teams that I just hate so much.
Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words—"mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.
