"I Like It, I Love It"

I spent a hundred million dollars last month for a brand new team..
I drafted all the players that I thought would make me lean and mean...
Now I'm sitting in the basement, fifteen games behind
I'm pulling out my hair and I'm losing my mind
My pitching staff has wilted, the defense isn't there
All my starting hitters swing at nothing but the air

And I like it, I love it
I want some more of it
I've tried, so hard,
I can't rise above it
Typing little numbers from my credit card is easy
And I like it, I love it, I want some more of it

I don't know why I play this game cuz all it does is give me fits
I can't recall how many times I've said I'm gonna call it quits
Now my morning coffee's perking, the papers by the door
I fire up the puter to check my latest score
My head bangs on the table and I begin to weep
HAL is laughing silently cuz it's another sweep

And I like it, I love it
I want some more of it
I've tried, so hard
I can't rise above it
Masochistic tendencies I must have in abundance
But I like it, I love it
I want some more of it

Gotta buy my team, and redraft,
Pick a team this time will win
It's made with fine precision, I enter a division
With Frank, Nev and Petrosian

And I like it, I love it
I want some more of it
I've tried, so hard
I can't rise above it
Can't resist the sale price I buy 5 packs by the dozen
But I like it, I love it
I want some more of it

(guitar) :D

:lol: BRAVO! Simon31, you missed your calling if you aren't a songwriter. I actually DID sing this in my head to Tim McGraw's tune. Happy Thanksgiving to you!

A very nice Thanksgiving ode to SOM. Arlo, move over, there's a new song for the holiday.
