    They went off with a bang, for sure.
      Went to bed pretty sure the Nats were on their way to the NLCS but woke to find that that didn't happen. Bummer.

      Runners run.

        Yep.

          Kinda seems like the Nats are just one pitcher away.

            Strasburg? http://www.thenation.com/blog/170547/postmortem-now-infamous-and-indefensible-decision-sit-stephen-strasburg
              Great article. Inexcusable. Shut him down in mid-season. Limit him to 5 innings per start. There were ways to protect him and have him in the playoffs.

               

                Hughes versus Verlander.  Not to be missed!

                   I'll be sleeping

                   

                    I actually saw the end of the game. I was so rooting for Verlander to finish, and he almost did. He was brilliant.

                      it seems as though the Yankees are now being run by the Jets.

                       

                       

                        Save me if the Giants win again. 

                          You okay, Parklife?

                            Heheh.

                             

                            So Ozzie Guillen got canned. I gotta say, back in the day, I never knew he was such a colorful fellow. He was always "the other shortstop named Ozzie."  You'd open up your Topps pack, get an Ozzie Guillen and go "WTF am I going to do with this?"

                             

                            As an adult, I am absolutely gaga for him and his use of Arab-American catch phrases, such as "I am not a dumb."

                              The "other" Ozzie, on my wall growing up:

                               

                               

                              You suck. You should just quit. Jackass. Welcome back.

                                Nice!

                                 

                                Here is the other Ozzie on the wall of my memories:
