This time it feels different…(World Series Rant)

Monday, October 26th, 2009

For decades the Yankees in the playoffs was a natural thing. The Red Sox fans were used to it. We expected it. We were ready for it. But then things suddenly changed around the turn of the century…

Where this guy shared the MVP:

Then there was 2003, and this guy ended up MVP:

Those were the last two times the Yanks have been to the World Series.

Then as the clock struck midnight, on the morning of Oct 18th, 2004 something changed:

*GROWN MEN SHED TEARS WARNING – DO NOT WATCH IN FRONT OF COWORKERS, WOMEN OR YOUR CHILDREN (unless they will cry with you, of course)*

and the Red Sox established themselves in the WS with another win in 2007:

Papelbon had some ups, eh?

Then the Red Sox were back in the ALCS in 2008, Yanks didn’t even make the dance.

Yes, the Red Sox were a quick 3 and out in 2009, there are all sorts of issues with an aging team but that’s another rant for another day.

So, that being said, this is Red Sox territory now. This is how the post season feels now. I can only hope to see some other familiar face holding a World Series MVP trophy next week:

Go Phillies!

Brief Tom Brady Update

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

Yes, he threw for 6-TDs in the snow and the old TB looked to be back but then I got this from a Pats insider off twitter:

“Wes Welker razzlng Tom Brady on wearing suit for long trip: “Is he working the London stock exchange?”
Brady responds playfully: “I wouldn’t be taking fashion advice from Wes.”"

Seriously Tom? WTF

I’m all about the Pats winning but he’s gotta toughen up, this shit is making him soft.

Cowboys dont cuddle with baby goats!

I’ll take the flag all day, and Ray and Rodney are little overboard but they do have a point.

Just keep throwing TDs, TB, and I guess you can wear all the make up you want at the Superbowl press conference.
