no baseball for me.

i had a ton of work to do today-- still not done in fact-- and i didn't dare to think that the wednesday night game would be the phillies & nats, so i didn't even think bother turning on the tv.  round about 10:30, i decided to take a dinner break, and i checked the scores.  when i saw the game was tied in the 9th, i checked espn's home page, and woo hoo!  the game's on.  i sprinted to the tv, only to find something that was NOT the game.  hm.  maybe i needed to refresh the webpage?  tried that, and look-- it's the tenth inning now.  so i clicked on the spot that named the game, and it completely contradicted the front page.  wtf?  why do these people want to piss me off?  this is the third time in less than a week that i've had to follow a game that was supposed to be televised on 'gameday,' which is difficult on the patience.  GRRR. according to that same espn tv listing page, the game "replays" tonight at midnight.  guess what?  poker's on now.  if they pull this crap during the playoffs, i'll be forced to fire off an angry email. as if to cap off the night, i just got an email telling me i did NOT make the cut in the mets NLCS ticket drawing.  (meaning i'm not allowed to BUY tickets, not that i thought i was going to win them.)  what are the odds of me being awake tomorrow morning at 9am to try and buy phils tickets?  not bloody likely. good news is, the phils won the game.  bad news is, so did the damn dodgers.  sigh.
