Fish Out of Water

Musings and observations about life from an East Coast native now living on the Left Coast in the California State Capitol since 2004. This fish has made her home in Madison, WI (7 years); Portland, OR (2 years); Las Vegas, NV (7 months); Middlebury, VT (3 summers); Marne-la-Vallee, a small town east of Paris, France (6 months); Middletown, CT (3 years); and Marshfield, MA, the fish's coastal hometown 40 miles south of Boston (17 years).

Curse, What Curse?

Unbelievable.

Down 3-0 in the ALCS and the Sox manage to pull off two marathon extra-inning wins plus last night's more "traditional" 4-2 win to push the series to the final 7th game. Pretty damn cool. Of course, it would have been much cooler if they had managed to score some more runs earlier on in the other games and not squander all of those opportunities (after all, Ortiz did strike out several times before managing to salvage those games), but then we would have missed all of the great drama and tension that comes from any Sox/Yanks match-up, right?

Personally, I think I would have preferred a bit less drama, thank you...

LNJ agrees-

Less drama would be nice, but a win is a win, no matter how it comes. I like how they look and beating the Yanks tonight would be something, but my only worry is that the Sox spend so much to beat the Yanks that the WS is a wash for them. That is my only worry. I will be glued tonight, by the by.
