2007 World Series

Fun game last night. Almost felt bad for the Indians after Youk's homer. Yowzers. Are Dice K and Okajima gonna think that American baseball is always this fun? You know, win the AL East... win the pennant in 7 games, at home... go to the World series... typical season. Questions: Does Wake (or even Lester?) get a start? Jacoby starts? Bats first? Sox in 5 games?

Bud Light! THE BEER to pour on trophies. I was spinning at 50 B-day party on Saturday Night, TV set up in the corner, when JD Drew hit the grand slam, the table of women in front of me were like: "Can you believe JD Drew hit a grand slam? No way! Not JD Drew." Real Sox fans.

What we are up against on Wednesday.

I find it somewhat ironic that they play at Coors Field--but I'm not planning on casting any stones.

Cast away. You don't preach.

Funny Pedroia stuff here.

Up 2-0 going to Colorado. 5 games.

C. Du Brocker was talking sweep. I say in 6.

3 games to none. Jacoby and Dustin = MVP!

I might have to revise my prediction. Sox in 4... Lester finishes the Rockies off with a no hitter?

Was I the only person naive enough to think that the Rockies were going to win this series? They had that "team of destiny" thing going. Go figure. But hey, who's complaining? The more winning Boston teams, the better.

Being a "team of destiny" would help. Being Christian hasn't...

I'm not sure God watches baseball.

Posted by pchippy on 2007-10-28 23:04:57 +0000
I'm sure He does. Among other things. What I'm not so sure of: --That the Rockies' collective public piousness makes them in fact better people than the Red Sox. --That God is more likely to grant worldly success (like a World Series title) to better people than to worse people, i.e., that He sees such success as an appropriate reward for virtue. --That He would choose to put in the fix, metaphysically speaking, in a sports event, for any reason. But then, neither am I sure that the above aren't true...

Pedroia is heelarious. If the red sox win I am going to take over the Shell gas station across the street for red sox nation. The sox used to always thank jeebus when they would hit homers?!?!?!

If Ben Franklin was right and it is true that Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy, shouldn't we all be printing 'God Hates Coors' T-Shirts by now?

-That God is more likely to grant worldly success (like a World Series title) to better people than to worse people Michael Vick is a worse person.
