But seriously
Hello...again.... yes I know, 2 posts within a week, heck 2 posts within a month is odd for me. I have to have some random place to rant, it's 1:34 a.m. and everyone who would listen to me complain has signed off AOL. I have come to the conclusion that sports has to great of an affect on my moods. 2 great examples of this just happened. I'm a huge Notre Dame fan and they blew a lead against USC in the final minute, and lost the game with 3 seconds remaining on the clock. I was crushed. I was actually depressed for the rest of the night! Poor Whitney has become my therapist haha. After that I didn't think it could get any worse, but oh it did on Monday night. See, I'm a huge Houston Astros fan. Roger Clemens is on the team, and wherever Clemens goes, that's where I hang my allegiance. Well anyways, Houston was up 3 games to 1 in the National League Championship Series. They took a 4-2 lead into the bottom of the ninth inning. Their lights out Closer Brad Lidge made the first 2 batters look pathetic. Then something happened. David Eckstein got a base hit, Jim Edmonds drew a walk, and in stepped Albert Pujols. His first swing looked horrible. First of all, It's ALBERT PUJOLS! Walk him and face Reggie Sanders, it's the smart thing to do. I am convinced if they did that I'd be celebrating in this Blog. Instead we pitched to Pujols, on Lidge's very next pitch Pujols did the unthinkable. He crushed it, I mean this was not just any home run here, this quieted over 40,000 people and it probably would've traveled a good 40,000 miles. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=251017118. There is the link to the gawdawful details of the game. Final score Houston 4 Cardinals 5. I sat in silence for an hour. I didn't know what to do, I was sick, sweating and in total shock. So the Astros go back to St. Louis up 3 games to 2, this same thing happened last year when the Cardinals found a way to win both games. Seriously.......this could really ruin the weekend if the same thing happens....... Here's hoping the Astros close it out in game 6.....until then, Peace out and keep it real, Live Long
