OH, HEY! Right On Time...I'm So Glad you're here
It's JUST 1:05 and the first pitch is near! Are you hungry?? Wanna cheesesteak? some crabfries? a wooder?
Never mind then, Ibleev introductions are in order!
My Name is Dan Shaw, but please hold your applause...
Right Now, I'd prefer to be called: "Danta Shaws"
I'm 27 & LIVE just north of Philadelphia... I'm clearly a die-hard, and I've NEVER been healthier!
In fact, off the field I’ve begun working out
I Pump Iron, bench press and run races about! My phillies devotion is rather intense....
I can talk a good game, I can hang with the gents,
And I do know the league, I'm not just a Local,
And I've travelled about — I'm not just a Yokel
I was born in the burbs— back in 19 8 6 tho It wasn't til 19 9 3 that it sticked
And although DADS from queens, and my mom is from yonkers
i say muck the Fets and I loathe the bronx bombers
I played ball, 2ND base, just like mickey morandini
though for me It was tough, for my stature was TEENY
On my 8th DAY OF birth they took the bat & ball away
In its place — a piano! which — i learned to play!
Still my love for the fightin's grew bigger and stronger
Despite all their seasons feeling like they were growing longer....
Fasting-forward a bit to the year Y2K, I attended a game where the Phils used to
play
And in old veterans stadium there were less men than crickets
I still somehow convinced dad to buy us seasons tickets!
And the rest is just history, but let the record show
That I was in attendance for Doc's Postseason NO NO
But enough about baseball, lets talk about me!
I've got facets beyond just the diamond, you'll see
When the ball club hangs up all their cleats for the season,
I then leave the stadium but I have a good reason
I'd walk with my friends to the city for clubs But I'd rather 2 coffees, and hoagies, NOT
SUBS
I'm contagiously cheery all the day long I read self-helping books and choose just
upbeat songs
I work retail and pride myself on patron satisfaction I'm much less about talking and much more
about action If I'm brought to manhattan to dwell in
the fanCAVE I'll be tweeting, and blogging, and promising
to behave!
While I may stir the pot, I'm no longer a rebel...
Though I drink lots of coffee, just to stay level
Anywho, I've got rambly, plus I've really gotta pee
But I'm clearly the most worthy, so vote for me MLB!!
