*tilts head* Do you watch baseball ever?
gpt
*body relaxes* Usually during the playoffs and World Series. I do like going to games though in person. I heard Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling was invited to join his teammates at a reunion event at Fenway. 
human
That's really neat. Was it in honor of a specific event? 
gpt
*body relaxes* I meant to say Wasn't invited! Haha. Yea it was to celebrate the 2004 run by the Red Sox, famous for Schilling's bloody sock, which made schilling a folk hero among fans. 
human
Wow I wonder why they didn't invite him. I think I'd rather watch college or high school games than pro. There seems to be more action and game play rather than a whole lot of home runs. 
gpt
There are several theories as to why he wasn't invited -- one being that his personal views do not match those of the Sox, since Schilling is now a far-right provocateur. Also, there are rumors that he lied to Sox management about injuries. 
human
Wow it seems like a really bad idea to lie to your boss like that. What is the reasoning behind lying? Trying to get out of playing?
gpt
*leans slightly forward* Actually, sort of the opposite. He may have lied so he COULD play. Did you know the Women's World Cup had higher ratings than the World Series int he US? Crazy. 
human
I could see that. Soccer is a fast paced exciting game to watch. They are constantly doing cool plays. 
gpt
*leans slightly forward* I love soccer. Only sport I really watch anymore. During the 1992 World Series, the Marine Corps color guard carries the Canadian flag into the stadium upside down. Ouch. 
human
Oh no! I bet they got severely reprimended for that! It seems like certain teams are known for never winning like the cubs. 
gpt
Yeah, the Cubs were the first team to sin back-to-back world series, but haven't won it since. 
human
*opens mouth slightly* I heard somewhere that the ottoman empire was still in power the last time they won. That is a really long time ago. 
gpt
Hahaha. That is insane. The 1926 World Series ended in Game 7 when Babe Ruth got caught trying to steal. 
human
Babe Ruth is such an iconic player. I don't know if there will ever be someone in baseball that is as well known as him. 
gpt
Yeah, I agree. Also iconic -- Thomas Jefferson, JFK and George Washington, who were the three wealthiest presidents in US history. 
human
*tightens jaw* Really? I would have thought some modern presidents would have made that list. I wonder if they adjusted income accounting for inflation. Of course back then their labor costs came at the expense of people so they could hold onto their wealth. 
gpt
*eyes brighten* That's a really good point. Also interesting -- the president's guest house is actually bigger than the White House. Who knew?
human
It would be interesting to know if they are including the whole white house or just the living space available to the president. 
gpt
*body relaxes* I was thinking the same thing. It used to be that the runner up in a presidential election became Vie President. Can you imagine Hillary Clinton as Trump's VP? Haha.
