They might. You'll have to use the surroundings and there is only a limited number of possibilities (30 teams total). I think you can figure it out. Or you can wait for the clues.

Moo, Moo, Moo.
You included the team that's going to lose the World Series, but not the one that's going to win.
Shame.
Take care of yourself. There's a great future out there. It won't come to you; you have to go to it.
