  I have had my blog, You Can't Suck In Back Fat, aka The Bipolar Express, since 2009.  It has become so random, I thought I would try a new one, just to write about baseball. Texas Rangers baseball, to be exact.

 There are a few things about me, you need to know. First of all, I am not an expert on baseball, I just love the game. What I write here, will be my opinion, nothing more. I take myself seriously, but you don't have to.
  Also, I have a deep dislike for the Boston Red Sox, and an even deeper, darker, festering dislike for the New york Yankees. I didn't say hatred, but dislike. I don't hate anyone, no matter who they play for.
 I am a "music Nazi". I will never try to tell you how to live your life, but I will insist you listen to good music while you're living.
 I'm not afraid of dying. I am, however afraid of dying naked. My husband knows this, and has specific instructions on what to do before calling 911, and I never shower, when home alone.

  Well, spring training has finally begun, and we are just a few weeks away from the 2013 season. I think it's going to be fun, seeing what all the new guys can do and I am just about over Michael Young. I was hoping he would choose to retire with the Rangers, but at least we won't have to watch him fade away.
  On the other hand, Josh Hamilton is making it real easy to get over him. He has said some pretty nasty things about Rangers fans, lately. He should just shut up. Pudge never did interviews, when he left and Texas cheered him on every time he played the Rangers. Josh must be taking advice from ARod.
  My favorite comment by Josh, was, "those that get it, will understand.". What?? You mean the intelligent fans?  Oh, we get it. It's about the money. Forget that Texas gave you a chance to regroup after your drug addiction. Forget that we saw you as a human being when you failed your drug test, and chose to forgive you when you went on your drinking binge. It's OK, we're just too stupid to "get it".
  OK, got that off my chest.
