I like my boys rowdy and rough tall and scruffy handsome and not so talkative. I like an athletic body big shoulders, strong thighs forearms with bulging veins. I like the sharp swing of a bat and the crack of a well-hit ball. I like finesse in the field black glare makeup on sunny days clean, sporty sweat. I like the Sox and cold beer on the Green Monster I like the World Series banner. I like it when the Yankees fold like an expensive house of cards. I cheer for the heroes Manny and Big Papi, Johnny Damon, but I root for the underdog. I will vote every time for the guy who will never make the all-star team. When he fails, I feel his pain, and when he succeeds, his triumph. Amid the chorus of boos when he whiffs one time too many there will always be one cheer in the crowd, from the girl who wants to marry Mark Bellhorn. |
