Well, "Salute the A's" weekend is off to a flying start. Tonight we roll over and play dead for eight innings, because its not polite to salute your opponent then, you know, beat him. Tomorrow you get a T-Shirt with a Jackass on the front and you can stick your fist up a mule's ass before the game if you want to. Sunday they should dig up Charles Finley's corpse so every fan can kiss his dead, wrinkled ass. I'm assuming they're going to permit themselves to be swept, because it wouldn't be nice to salute your opponent then actually beat them. Just not good sportsmanship.
