Boo! Stir seats; Paws, for affect; Score, boreds 

Cause for a pause: To catch our collective breath, put our wallets on pause, following a period of pride in our home team(s), parading in, and out -- where curiously, the one where the game is susceptible to inclement conditions is out, and the other, is in (the one that can and should, for us purists, be played out, on the field of play), in our hometown...

Paws, for affect: As in "Aww!" Almost auto-matic to bring a smile to the face of all ages, and stages of the game...before and after what's called, the "Seventh inning stretch" Whereas the appearance of Paws...here, there, and in almost every section of the stadium, the cause is to get us to claw for every dollar, to willingly pay more for the same number, of innings…

"Just caws" Without much other justification...for asking us to shell out, in order for them, our hometown team(s) to sell out...

Bigger boreds: With scores of scores and other sensational audio, visual to inundate our senses, that have come to replace that traditional organ and its player...we're talking 'mass' lay-offs here...

Boosters: No, not the groups of loyals that flock to the stadiums, parks, and even local gymnasiums to support their children and their local schools...I'm referring to the buddies and their bodies one can count on to "gimme a boost, willya?!" when trying to circumvent, down to our last cent...in order to sneak, a peak. "Boo!"
