Wow! I'm still pretty stunned about last night's game. I'm even having a hard time remembering what happened.
But it's sure great to be in first. There's still a bunch of work to do, and we still need a little help from the Indians, but I have faith.
Well, I have faith now. In about the sixth or seventh innings last night, I gave up. I must have looked absolutely forlorn when mini-bro asked me if I was ok. I said, "it's over. The season is over. This is it." He said, "aww. Don't give up. You know, like the Journey song -- Don't Stop Believing." Then he started to sing. Cute. I know he was just being silly to try to cheer me up, but he may be on to something.

So I get to work this morning and am greeted by none other than Mr. Negative P. Jerkass, who says, "why are you getting so excited? Do you actually believe the Twins will do anything if they make the playoffs?" Aw, shut up and let me have my fun, will'ya? Pthththth.

I just love how D-Span and Go-Go are largely responsible for the comeback and win. It's the least they could do after their little *ahem* misplay *ahem* in the outfield in the fourth. Nothing like going from goats to heroes, huh?

When I was driving home last evening, I was listening to Dan Barreiro. He something about that if the White Sox lost the last game, Ozzie would spontaneously combust. I can totally see that happening, especially since that game was so dramatic. I didn't listen to Ozzie's post-game interview, so I can't be sure, but if he did spontaneously combust, I imagine it looks something like this.

Dear Dick Bremer:
I ordered you a case of Ricola to arrive to the booth before tonight's game. You most likely have a very sore throat; you yelled a lot during Thursday's game. You were very excited.
Love,
k-bro

Ah, I have my own version of Mr. Negative P. Jerkass, I call him Ass Clown. This morning he goes to me “Don’t even think of buying playoff tickets because you’ll lose the interest in your savings account.” Of course, me being only one cup of coffee into my day said “Don’t even think about talking to me because I will put my heel through your eye.”
I imagine Ozzie did look at bit litte that. Good picture.
