Grumble, Grumble, Congratulations, Grumble, Grumble

If you were wondering, no, I didn’t have the heart to watch the Phillies wrap up the pennant last night.
Boy, this has been a fun last five weeks, hasn’t it?

  1. Wait, is this a post about baseball? I didn’t know you talked about baseball on this website?

  2. I have a very good friend who lives in Philadelphia and is a Phillies fan. He has invited me, a lifelong Mets fan, to join him and support the Phillies in the World Series. His angle is that we should join together and support the NL against the AL.
    Now, I have no allegiance to the Rays, although I have some love for the Sox as I went to school in Boston. But I am clearly an NL fan first. Ideally I’d support the NL team. But come on, it’s the Phillies. What am I to do? Abandon my friend? Despite his Philadelphia ties, he did root along side me for the NY Giants in Jan/Feb. Do I ignore the World Series? All options seem too painful.

  3. Thanks for the space, Crank. No matter how hard this may for you , we appreciate and heartily accept your begrumbed well wishes.
    You’re a gentleman and a scholar.

  4. Ron – of course you root for the Phillies. How can you root for any team that plays with a DH? Bleeping upstart league with their newfangled “rules”. Bah, humbug.

  5. Golly gee whiz, we Phillies fans have had to watch the Mets win world series and we have to keep trading away top talent or not drafting or losing to free agency…it is soooooooooooooo pleasurable to see the mets CHOKECHOKECHOKECHOKE!
