Like everyone else, I'm down about this 2-and-10 loss streak. Sitting at the park tonight, waiting for what seemed like the inevitable letdown, my mind wandered to what the Sox organization could now to capture the fans' imagination. To reflect back to us the uniqueness of being a Sox follower in August 2004, you know? Some icebreakers:
1. Instead of the irrational act of throwing back visiting teams' homerun balls, get fans to throw back the Sox' homerun balls.
2. Instead of Kiss Cam: Suicide Cam. Why reward people by putting them on the Jumbotron for merely smooching the wife, waving their arms or acting cute?
3. To relieve the tedium of frog/pizza/plane/pinwheel contests, have them all race backwards, just like the Sox.
Other suggestions? :whiner:
