Phinally

In the who gives phuck department, the girl horses (sorry, that's what fillies are) won the series. The phinal innings were carried on the weather channel for those of you who missed it. Major networks pulled out due to lack of interest. Somewhere, Tim McCarver is probably still talking.

Too bad, phor it would have been phun to see the Tampa phans celebrate. I can only imagine the mayhem and tipping of golph carts. Rest homes adding an hour to lights out and early bird specials extended to 7pm. It would have been insane.

Thankphully, it's over and we can get back to the real world. By the way, both Chicago and Anaheim had glorious weather all week and would have been perphect venues to play.

In case you didn't see the sportswire, Casey McGeeHeeHaw was picked up on waivers by the Brewers. Aramis can now stop worrying about his job.

Thank you phor the comments and suggestions re: the Shermies. Since this was the phirst year, I'll admit that perhaps I missed a phew. Mojo gets the Golden Shermie for keeping his sense of humor during a very tough year. Ravage gets the Rojo Shermita for not staying in Cozumel so that we could win the world series.

Now we can start building next year's team. I, phor one, have very high hopes.

Although the cities you mentioned with the nice weather had the best records in their respective leagues, only the one with the most abysmal record post season was ,with little argument, the best team in their league. The Devil Rays (lose a series, gain back a name) were probably the best AL team due to a schedule, unlike the Angels, not made up oph beer league rejects.

13th of October should be the opening oph phree agency. The next 2 weeks should be spent tying up one's own phree agents. Literally or phiguratively, you make the call.

Next years schedule has 2 trips to San Diego, and a phour game weekend series in Denver. Should be able to hit a couple of road trips.

Also should win 110 regular season games. Post season is another story. This brings up a subject for debate. Can we (will we) get excited about pursuing the best record in the league in 2009? When a 6 month feel good experience crashes in 4 calendar days, should we (will we) be less trusting?
I'm not sure. I am sure that I won't want to talk about how to set up a World Series pitching rotation so that Zambrano can bat.

Another tidbit for thought... What phan base deserves a championship LESS that philth a delphia?
