John & Tammy: San Diego's Morning Show
Are We Over the Padres Loss Yet?
sat down and watch the Mets Dodgers game yesterday afternoon thinking I love afternoon baseball me correct that I love afternoon baseball when our Padres are still playing I was depressed yeah but but they beat the doctors they spanked them I all I kept thinking was man we should be playing the Mets at our house right now I should be there right now I'll get through this but I'm going to need your help let's do this together. I'm only half joking 8 3 3 2 8 7 1 0 3 7. Good morning Heather LaMesa what's going on. Good morning I feel for you I too was in tears at the end of the game my son sat next to me put his arm around me like our dog had died I was devastated hold on saying do you compare it to your dog dying or did your dog also die. No my dog didn't die but it was quote okay God is just a hell of a weekend. No I had a girlfriend over Friday night who I've been friends with since my early 20s and she's not really big in the sports but just the way that the Padres were. This year you know they kind of sucked her into and we were watching the game and when it was over it was like I was surprised how truly bummed someone was who wasn't necessarily a big baseball fan she was really really bummed yeah I'm not really a baseball fan I'm a Padres fan. I was heart wrecked yeah I know now I just want to watch the daughter's leaves that's my that's all I want to watch I just want to watch and get pummeled I was the opposite it's so weird I was I think I was in shock in a weird way I don't mean to like be over dramatic but I was watching the game of my daughter she is by far my my my my ride or diver. Padres games in person so just felt apt and felt very fitting to watch the game at her plays and had dinner over there and I figured all along you know we're only losing to nothing you Darvus is pitching another masterpiece we're going to come back and then take this I just was waiting for the big comeback that never happened and when it was very clearly it was over. I packed up my stuff I hugged my daughter kissed her on the forehead said goodbye and was home within 20 minutes pounding a hogging dog chocolate peanut butter ice cream because that's how I dropped myself. Oh well I don't mean to rub it in but it was marvelous but I was I don't know I went I went to bed and I woke up the next morning and I'm like yeah the Padres lost in their seasons over and they lost the Dodgers who you can't stand and why aren't you more angry why aren't you more sad. I think it was I think it was denial I think it's a stage of grief I know I know that sounds dramatic but last night you invested so much plus you absolutely adore baseball. I do there's nothing I love better than going to Pecco Park and I'll tell you had I known that last Wednesday would be my last time at Pecco Park for the season or at least my last time watching the Padres in person this year I don't know I would have stayed longer. I would have been Jackson Merrill going to going to the ballpark the next day just sit outside his locker and look at it I probably got kicked out pretty quickly had I done that but late February Heather is when pitchers and catchers reports should be a very interesting off season with all the people that we might lose or gain. So I mean I hate saying wait till next year but we've got no other choice. All right take care. Okay bye. And again oh dopey it is to have actual mood swings depending on how your favorite team does because they're not talking about me right now they're not changing their day because of me. You're not alone. Oh I know I'm not alone and you know what that's the thing. There's so many of us die hard fans that thought this is different this year and I know we say it every year but even like remember last week I know you remember Timmy but when Jan from Lakeside one of our favorite people called up and said she just lost her father the week before. She thought this was going to be the year that her father would help the spirit of her father would help them finally win a world series. And there's so many stories like that and I just I feel sad for all of us because we were so happy together last week. And now we're kind of like I mean I don't know about you but I'm like ugh baseball yeah I mean I'm watching it still because I love the game and I love the postseason but ooh it's a bitter pill to swallow this year Tim. I'm not mad at the Padres. I'm just mad that it happened. It's a crappy game sometimes because of what happened. You just go cold and there's no answer for it. Are you as angry as the Dallas Cowboy fans were over the weekend? Oh my goodness this is a fun story unless you're a Dallas Cowboys fan. Probably not the best time for cheerful bright-eyed lady Wilson to announce that she's been headlining the halftime show at Dallas Stadium on Thanksgiving Day when the Cowboys are getting troused at that very same stadium And that's coming up next with John and Tammy. It goes to the morning show. Thank you Tammy. That changed my mood on KSOA.
