Oh, the joy!

It's October, and you know what that means boys and girls... baseball playoffs!!

How enheartened and alive with joy did I feel this morning when I read this wonderful article on my now favorite website (sports.yahoo.com/mlb)... yes Yankees fans, the article is entitled "An old-fashioned beat down". Much to their dismay, the Yankees could only manage 5 hits in their opening Divisional Series game against Cleveland last night. Take that LaBron! Even though the Post lamented that the Yankees haven't won a Series since 2000 (poor babies!) and have lost 11 of 14 playoff games since their complete collapse against the Sox in the 2004 ALCS (remember that?), they're not looking too healthy this time around either.

A Tribe-Rockies World Series? Those boys from out west are looking pretty good too. Oh to be in the Mile High City tomorrow and watch them clinch their first trip to the NLCS! To me, right now (esp after winning 16 of their last 17!!) the Rockies are the team to beat.

You know, maybe you will have to stay in the city on the computer listening to the game! The Rockies definately look good and they are our HOME TEAM this year!

GO ROCKIES!!!
