"You Play Ball Like a Girl!"

We all remember the famous line from The Sandlot. Some of us may even remember a line or two from A League of Their Own.
Umpire: Perhaps you chastised her too vehemently. Good rule of thumb: treat each of these girls as you would treat your mother.
Jimmy Dugan: Did anyone ever tell you, you look like a penis with a little hat on?


The point is this: Whatever. I just want to update this fucking blog because everyday I don't update this blog is a little bit worse than the day before.

So I did a google image search for "baseball and animals" to see what I could come up with. Nothing. It all sucked. Every image. They all sucked. (at least, every image on the first page.)

That's when I realized that I just needed to be more honest. Baseball was uninspiring to me this past season. Fuck it.
"Uninspiring baseball" became my next search.
And for some reason, this photo came up



So I thought about the grand possibilities of writing about women in baseball in film. Or something. But that's just as dishonest as anything to me right now. I'd rather just post more images that came up in my "uninspiring baseball" Google image search!



Totally uninspiring thing about baseball. Good job, Google Images!



100% INspiring and 0% baseball. Bad job, Google Images. You're 1 for 2 right now!



Definitely "yes" on the baseball. It can go either way on the "uninspiring," though.
...
Oh what the heck; we'll give it to ya! You're 2 for 3!



Too easy. But fine.



Another one of these. All right, sure. Totes uninspiring. Let's keep going.



I'm beginning to think that Google Images doesn't know what "uninspiring" means.
