I think I'm rooting for the Angels now. I still love Orlando Cabrera from last year, and I've always like Vlad. Go Angels?

Arrow Jumping on another wagon.

I'm a Yankee fan now.
The players are familiar.
But, of course, with me pulling for them, they'll surely lose.

Wait 'til next year.

Braves go out in the first round yet again. I realize it's 14 consecutive division titles (somewhat dubious IMO b/c of the '94 final standings), but they can't get anything done in the playoffs.

What do you expect?

They used to be the Boston Braves, didn't they?

I stopped watching about the 7th inning cause I had other things to do. Buddy called me when they were in the bottom of the 11th and said it was tied. Of course, I didn't believe him. But, I watched from the 11th until the disappointing end.

Either way, GO CARDS!!

Did you get anything done in those 80 minutes?

Well.... I could have saved a load of money on my car insurance 5 different times. Umm, not really, I got my car packed, that's about it.

Longest ever post-season game.

Only post-season game in history to have two grand slams.

12 pitchers used; over 550 pitches. (Imagine being the HP umpire...)

White Sox against Houston would make a good World Series.

I was also watching the Cubs this weekend. Unfortunately, they weren't on ESPN or Fox, it was the Vacation Channel...

Or the Lions vs. Ravens? 21 penalties? Have 2 players thrown out for contacting officials? Give the crowd the finger?

Man, talk about outa control football teams. You might expect that in some of the Pop Warner-type daddy-coach leagues....but not in the NFL. You have a head coach there that has absolutely no control over his team. Sad.

Geeze, I did mean Billick actually.

Is everybody there that far down on the Moosh now? I thought he was your savior come down from the mount just a l'il while ago.

Jmo, but I think the Lions have got more of a GM problem than a head coach problem.
