Once the hated Yankees were out of the picture, “the boy” was extremely pleased - if not relieved.  I’m sure there are people out there who detest the Bronx Bombers more than my son - I just haven’t met them yet.  Now, from the glass is “half-full” perspective, I’m quite certain that one “knowledgeable Lynx fan” is likely beside himself with the Tribe one win away from taking out Boston (although, if I recall correctly the locals in nis neck of the woods were decidedly in the Boston camp…. hmmm….. he’s probably not watching the games at any of the local watering holes…).

Before I forget - TaoofStieb, you’re off the Christmas card list.  Like I had time to waste on this stuff.  Thanks.

For those of you not addicted to computer/video games, PhuturePhillies has their eye on the Winter Leagues (i.e. Hawaii and Arizona).  I’ve taken a look at the Mexican League but unfortunately my Spanish isn’t as good as it used to be - OK, I don’t know any Spanish beyond “Por favor mantenganse alejado de las puertas…” (from Disney World - “Please stand clear of the doors…”).  Yes.  I am a loser.  But a loser who’ll be lying on a beach in a few days….

Tough loss for FLP, Joe Bisenius today.  He went two innings and surrendered six runs, four of them earned.  Oh well - it’s gonna happen every once in a while.

Thanks for stopping by - I realize that it hasn’t exactly been quality bloggin’ of late, but, well - you’ll see.
