Decided not to force a square peg into a round hole today by talkin’ real estate, retirement plans, or the like. It’s the first game of the ’09 World Series, and though it’s maybe gonna be the coldest in history, and both teams are from the east coast — it’s still the World freakin’ Series, OK? 
Don’t know for sure, but this might be the first time ever, at least in my lifetime, that the top two home run teams in their leagues are meetin’ in the Series.
The Phils will prevail in 6 or less for two main reasons. First, they’re an NL team — a league which still plays the Lord’s game, not that sissy version girls play at recess with everyone batting for everyone else. Second? They’re NOT the Yankees.
I think Cliff Lee will shut A-Rod and company down, or at least that’s my story ’till it’s not. Also, Ryan Howard is gonna finally figure out how to overcome his last weakness as a hitter, left handers.
Feel free to leave your predictions, as this time of year is always fun for real fans.
Have a good one.

I really don’t give a crap how or why or whatever. I root for anyone that is playing the Godles Yankees and their +$200,000,000 payroll. They stand for everything that is evil in the sports world.
I’ll end there before the FCC would have to shut your blog down for profanities….
What’s more profane than Yankees?
“What’s more profane than Yankees?”
