October 7: The Padres are Toast

San Diego, CA

As the SD Mascot, the Friar, contemplates the most likely fate of his team, we must remember my PODS (do not confuse with PaDs), are the worst (winning) team in baseball going up against the best team in the major leagues. Should the result be surprising? Would you have bet your Nikon or Canon on the local Nine? Not!

So I make this Post of Toast.
Thanks to the boys for giving their most.
There is no need for a roast.

We now become the host.
But I do despair,
It would take winning two games here to repair.
For us thus to boast
We are still the best on the Coast.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM
1/60s f/4.0 at 32.0mm iso400 with Flash full exif

Oh, oh, my Robin. You are a true genius - both with Photoshop, and the ever more difficult skill of punning.

Wonderful -- I think this is divine!

You and this whole baseball thing are cracking me up! BTW, Broncos play Sunday so I'm hopin' you can endure a little football with your lunch! Can't wait to see ya! You really outdid yourself on this one!

Oh ye of little faith! Don't you remember the Cubs? Padres in Five!!!

Hell...If I had a Nikon I would have bet it and all the lenses too. Looking forward to seeing you again, Robin. Miss Rachel will be there too. She sends her love.

You da man! How do you think this stuff up, Robin. The master of visual and linguistic puns for sure. You are in a league of your own.

All that will be left is the crumbs. Hey, at least they are better than my Cubbies!

That's hilarious! I would suggest that you should have burnt the toast a little more, but I'm afraid that might sound like I'm rubbing it in. ;-) Great PS work again.

Hey, you're a poet and an artist, too? Nice bit of work here.

Nice poem, nice composite. The Cards will sweep and all will remain right in the universe ;-)
