Bad News/Better News:
Bad news first? Okay, Game 6 has been postponed. That means we have to spend another 24 hours pretending we are screaming into a phone to see how the hell the Cardinals ended up with Lance Lynn, rather than Jason Motte, on the mound in Game 5. Or, if you are like me, wondering if there is anyway John Lackey can spend 3 years rehabbing from Tommy John surgery…
*forgive me while I weep one more time for the 2011 Red Sox season*
Okay, with that out of the way, are you ready for some better news? Great! One of my favorite players in all of baseball, Logan Morrison of the Florida Miami Marlins —follow him on Twitter, @LoMoMarlins, & you’ll see why— has joined the Farkas Eye Black “Athletes Against Stickers” campaign through the “Get Fark’d Up” initiative. His joining this campaign is near & dear to my heart, as this will help promote LoMo’s passion for aiding the American Lung Association. I’ve had two family members & a very dear friend diagnosed with this disease &, unfortunately, it’s likely you will know someone who is diagnosed with this form of cancer in your lifetime, as well.
So, as you sit around for a second night in a row, wondering who will mismanage their club to defeat in Game 6, you can literally “Fark Up” your Twitter/Facebook profile picture with Logan by clicking this link, while also joining LoMo in vocalizing your dislike of stickers. I mean, c’mon, stickers are for people who play Ultimate Frisbee or Frisebee Golf or Frisbee Badminton. Okay, I made that last one up, but you get the point.
