Da*n Yankees

Since I completely failed to be all Midwestern Zen about these playoffs, now that we're done, in only 3 games, AGAIN, I'm trying to be all Midwestern Stoic about it.

Like, I really should be studying instead watching hours and hours of baseball over the next few weeks. It's better for my own personal schedule that we're out of the running.

And, at least I was in MN this time when we lost. Because I can tell you from personal experience where a Twins fan does not want to be when the Twins lose to the Yankees in the post-season: TGI Friday's in Penn Station.

And, it wouldn't have been right to get to the World Series without Morneau. Though they did really well with him on the DL through the second half of the season, he's a huge piece of backbone for the team, and he should be part of it all when they finally make it.

And, though it would have been poetic to get to or even win the World Series the last year in the Dome or the first year in Target Field, it will be even more poetic to make it (and win!) on the 20th anniversary of their last win (which was 1991).

And, if we peaked too late last year and were just too exhausted after battling our way into the playoffs, and we peaked too early this year and lost all our mojo heading into the postseason, then according to the general law of 3s, next year we are due to hit it all just right: to peak at the right time and have just the right energy and mojo to carry us into and through to the championship.

2011, here we come. . .




Damn Yankees.
