  1. Spoken like a true fan. True fans do not always make true statements. A danger faced not only in baseball but in theology as well.

  2. Doug, my observations are logically derived from properly basic foundational truths. I don’t see how any informed thinking person could possibly disagree with my position.

  3. Yeah, it’s not like the Angels are hitting .174/.191/.293 in the series that could be at fault, right?

  4. and that, my friends, is the very definition of heartache.

  5. I am a diehard supporter of The Los Angeles Dodgers of Chavez Ravine. I think they still have a shot to pull it out.

  6. Makes me think of the Cubs, was it last year? or the year before? anyway… it just took one tiny thing (in their case, a fan interfering with a foul ball) to make the momentum of the entire series shift.

    I’d like to blame the umps too, but to be fair the White Sox were pretty much the hottest team in baseball. Go Astros! Their new colors are fabulous.
