Chico Harlan is Quite The Poet
Maybe it’s the Washington Nationals winning six in a row when it absolutely couldn’t matter less unless it was in the Grapefruit League, but the Nats’ streak has Washington Post beat writer Chico Harlan all shook up. Intertwine your soul with this game recap from yesterday’s late-game heroics over the Atlanta Braves.
But at that exact moment, with Boone batting and Washington trailing, the Nationals received hard and final proof of a karmic alteration. Misfortune, their foe all season, declared a ceasefire…
Only during Washington’s present six-game winning streak, and especially yesterday, has good fortune (sic) dared to masquerade as a miscue.
Karmic alteration? Declaration of ceasefires with misfortune? Rick Reilley ain’t got nothing on our boy. I mean, you couldn’t have gotten more poetic with this piece unless Wale’ was in the dugout with a tape recorder.
William Wordsworth, eat your heart out, sucka.
