Right on Schedule

Just heard the first "____ days til pitchers & catchers!" of the year. Which makes me throw up (even if my girl Uma says it in my slice Beautiful Girls.)

But you knew that already, via HERE.
6) Guys: quit trying to win the “REAL Baseball Fan” award by acting all excited and announcing the days until pitchers and catchers begin their workouts together. Every fucking year I gotta hear “17 days till pitchers/catchers!!!” Really? Are you a pitcher on a major league baseball team? Are you a catcher? Are you going to said practices to watch? Are these exciting workouts being televised? Do even the very pitchers and catchers that show up give 2 shits about this event? No. Acting like a excitable kid about something this worthless will not get you laid, it will not inspire me to buy you a fucking beer. The season starts on April 2. Until then, the only time I wanna hear “pitchers & catchers” is at my neighborhood gay bar, thank you very much.

For fuck's sake.

UPDATE: Holy crap!!  The number the guy used tonight was 17!! Bruce Becks aid "17 days til pitchers and catchers"....THE EXACT NUMBER I USED IN THIS EXAMPLE FROM  4 YEARS AGO!!!!

I am freaking myself out, people.

I guess I'm that guy: I began publicly counting down the days 'til pitchers and catchers report to spring training some four or five weeks after the WS ended. And I'm not one damn bit apologetic about it.
