Now you swear and kick and beg us
that you're not a gambling man
Then you find you're back in Vegas
with the handle in your hand

I'll cop out to the change,
but a stranger
is putting the tease on.
She said "you don't understand what I said"
I said "No no no, you're wrong
When I was a boy, everything was right
I was all right for a while
I could smile for a while

The results of the current poll can be interpreted pretty clearly.
In fact, those interpretations can even be set to music.
With apologies to the legendary Alice Cooper (for whom the city of
Cooperstown was most assuredly not named), we now present the new
anthem of the 2005 Blue Jays. Crank it up to 11, put the speakers in
the window and get your requests to Wilner; now here's the World (Wide Web) debut of ...

Lately it occurs to me
What a long, strange trip it's been
Now lightning strikes in old New York
It may be dark but I wanna talk
Tho' much is taken, much abides; and tho'
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
Unicorns and cannonballs, palaces and piers,
trumpets, towers and tenements
wide oceans full of tears
flags, rags, ferryboats, scimitars and scarves
every precious dream and vision underneath the stars

New York is waiting for you and me, baby
Waiting to swallow us down
New York, we're coming to see what you're made of
Are you as great as you sound?
It's not often a team finds itself down by 15 runs....
I am starting to function
In the usual way
Everything is so provocative
Very, very temporary
A lot of
big (or at least recognizable) names have reportedly cleared waivers.
Even if nothing ultimately comes of it, it's fun to think about who you'd target, what you'd be willing to give up (and, very differently, what the other club might expect you to give up!) ... hey, if it's time to quietly start up the 2005 Post-Season Blue Jay Bandwagon, it's time to think about who could help the most.
Here's a look ...
I might take a train
I might take a plane
But if I have to walk
I'm gonna get there just the same
All I can tell them is pick a good one and sock it.
