ALCS Game 3

Chris Phelan, my co-worker, just saw Torre checking into the Ritz surronded by police. I gave a half hearted "Let's Go Sox." He didn't look up, but he smiled. Anyone want to wear their "Jeter has AIDS" T-shirt to the Ritz bar tonight? I'll wear my "22-0."

That is Chris gave Torre a "let's go sox." I was behind the computer in my dungeon....

Is this game more important than a Game 4? 2-0 is a hole, 3-0 is a goddamn black hole, I don't care what Stephen Hawking says.

Tomorrow = all sorts of important. 2-1 is way, way different than 3-0.

Beer Canyon. Beer Canyon. Your corn rows are so true. Beer Canyon, Beer Canyon. All our hopes ride on you. The sons of Tito may be idiots, but I have a penant in my heart. I will pause to channel Robert Lowell at this time.... Crap. Can we get a decent ALCS Game 3 poem up in this piece?

Whil'st some peeps dost call thou a wigger (to start, and often worse) we think'st thou shalt pull the trigger upon this loathsome curse. Oh, Bronson, beers all in thy canyon, man about the town, we hope you pitch with wild abandon and beat that Kevin Brown.

Best poem in an ALDS Game 3 topic, right there.

Where's the game tonight? (if it's on.) Me & P. Chippy wanna join the gang...

I'll need a P. Chippy penned ode to our boys of October before I unleashed any details...

Oops, best poem in an AL***C***S topic.

You'll have to ask the yogi yourself, tgl!

Has there been a venue announced yet? We could do it here, if y'all are up for it.

Consultations may be required. Actually, Pug's is a cozy family bar in my neighborhood. Two reasonably sized flat screens, PBR on draft.

There's always Charlie's Kitchen-- equidistant to everyone but TGL. But I'd be willing to try Pug's.

I give up. this is too fuckin painful. Looks like the goddam black hole scenario Terry alluded to...

I heard a Yankees fan say something last week to the extent of "I don't understand why you guys (Red Sox fans) do this to yrselves every year... The Yankees are a big enough team / organization to share new fans / love from ex Red Sox fans" While Im not gonna switch, its hard not to consider the tempting "If you can't beat em join em" argument.... And Then I see Jeter's face and my sense of resolve is renewed 10 fold... This is an evil team that needs to be destroyed! Lets implode this black hole and get to the World Series! Otherwise, Im gettin ready to shift my attention to the Pats once again... ho hum...
