Fidel Castro has released an essay in which he complains about baseball being dropped as an Olympic sport in the 2012 games. He also tells Cuban fans to go easy on their national team if they do not win the gold in Beijing, telling them to blame jet lag instead.
Castro wrote, "They are going to the Olympic Games, which will be played on the other side of the world, where sleeping patterns and the rhythm of life changes."
They main "rhythm of life" change for the Cuban team will be continuous electricity.
My favorite thing about Fidel is how much he cares about baseball. Oddly enough, that's also the one thing that I don't dislike about George W. Bush. It would be great if the two of them could do a "Pardon the Interruption" talk show together.
Fidel: The imperialistic Alexander Rodriguez flexes his injustice with every sway of his lumber and each leg stroke he makes circularly through the path of the bases.
W.: I like A-Rod. But not as much as Madonna does, I bet. (snickering laughter for 45 seconds)
Fidel: He has no allegiance to ideology. He is a cog who should be a factory. A drop of a water who should be a typhoon.
W.: I took Laura to Hurricane Harbor this weekend. We did the lazy river all morning. I've still got the prune fingers to prove it. Hey Fidel...
Fidel: What George?
W.: I got a joke for you. Who was Stalin's favorite baseball team?
Fidel: He was really more of a weightlifting kind of guy.
W.: The Reds. Get it? The Reeeeeeeeeds. (snickering laughter into commercial break)
