9TH INNING, BASES LOADED, 2 OUTS...


I just don't have the energy to follow up my last blog with comments about the playoffs (yes, I went to both games in Oakland). Obviously I should never write about my favorite team again (I know there are larger forces at work than the simple superstitions of one fan, but I feel like my overly optimistic outlook somehow jinxed the offense and starting rotation).  

If you need me, I'll be the emotionally exhausted girl at her desk, pretending to be positive about winning the next 2 out of 3 games to avoid elimination. On the road. In snow.

    This entry was obviously written a few days ago, because as of a few hours ago -- your team's 2006 season was over. And in a dramatic way.

    My thoughts have been with you though -- because I knew that you would think that you had jinxed them somehow. To that I offer a hearty "p-shaw!"

    Lastly, I could offer my condolences, but given that my team has not won a World Series since they were Harlem-adjacent...let's just all agree that we should be happy that we ain't Cubs fans.

    When does 2007 Spring Training start?
