live

rhymes with hive. i think pete has engrained it in me but i honestly see no point in watching a sporting event that isn't live. mostly i think it's because the planet has an energy surrounding events like that - like ANY event, really - and the cheers and jeers and subsequent negative ions from all the activity have disappated if you try to tape it and watch it later. what's the point? that SAID, i would totally watch the 2009 mlb game 163 twins vs tigers any day of the week. it was a roller coaster theatrical performance! i have yet to find it at best buy. come ON fsn north, let's move on that. it also goes for the women's world cup soccer quarterfinal between the us and brazil. holy moses was that an intense piece of cinema! a lotta ins and outs, a lotta what-have-yous and a lot of nonsense! but oh-so-worth-it in the end. but back to my earlier point about taped sporting events: i got some flack yesterday for announcing the us vs france semifinal score at work b/c someone was dvarrrrghin' it. boo. take a long lunch and watch it live next time, buckoh. and Go USA! see YOU in the finals!
