Seeing that the ESPY Awards are the biggest thing going on in sports (well, at least since the World Cup games ended in the afternoon), this is probably an ideal day to travel. It seems the Brian Wilson spandex suit has been the best thing about the evening in sports, and that's a pretty bad indictment. Baseball will blissfully be back tomorrow, with the first game of the Colorado Rockies-Milwaukee Brewers series.
We will be there for the second game, and I just discovered that Chris Narveson will be pitching for the Brewers. This is a very good thing for Whine and Die. Because Whine and Die is in love with Narvy.
Perhaps it was the fact that he has ties to Colorado, just as she does. Perhaps it was that bizarre chance encounter at the Tim McGraw concert, when Fast Times and W&D got magically upgraded at Summerfest and wound up in front row seats next to a batch of Brewers. Perhaps it was when Narvy coincidentally moved into the same building as W&D. But somewhere along the way, an obsession was born.
Narveson has pitched several games that we've seen this year -- six of us are part of the 9-game season ticket package at Miller Park, and Narvy has pitched at least three games we've seen so far. To Whine and Die, each game is another opportunity to ply her stalking craft.
Fast Times just commented that she was disappointed to be mising the ESPYs because her own sports-related crush, a far more conventional Aaron Rodgers, was scheduled to present. Whine and Die correctly points out that it's not football season.
It's Narvy Season.
Are we in Iowa yet? We haven't even crossed the 200-mile threshold. The current landscape: cornfields.
