With a Spring in My Step

The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (still the dumbest decision in baseball naming history), won the American League Western Division by shutting out the hated Texas Rangers by a pleasant margin of 11-0. That makes 6 playoff appearances in the last 8 years. Awesome! The only problem is that, if the Angels happen to finally defeat the Red Sox this year, my busiest 3 weeks of the semester are the 2nd, 3rd and 4th weeks of October. I'll be extra sleep deprived if the Angels make it to the league championship. But I can sleep in November, right?

Eric, you are hopeless! Go Dodgers!

Go Dodgers?!?! They're about to give up their season-long domination of the NL West to the Colorado Rockies in the last week of the season. Talk about hopeless ...

Hey, Eric. Were you an Angels fan when THEY were pathetic? Loyalty is loyalty, is it not?

BTW, nice tights...

You know I was. And I had to take all kinds of razzing from Dodger fans back then (like you, your son, my own mom, etc.). Now I have the chance to dish it out a little so I'm taking every opportunity. I expect nothing less from you.

And you should see me in my Angels tights!
