“Would have been nice to see the hometown boys win back to back World Series, but it wasn’t in the stars...”
It would’ve. I was rooting for PHI that year because the owner(s) of PHI are GOP as I recall; the Gay Rays backed Obama that year (2008).
Still waiting for the Eagles to win...not happening this year. So much for that “revolutionary” Chipster offense, eh?
“But I wasn’t sad that the Yanks won... Either way it was a win for me.”
Unlike most NE’ers, I don not hate the Yankees; I respect George Steinbrenner for being a Republican, which is the direct opposite of the leftist loons that own the Red Sox.
I respect the Yankees for winning and spending money despite claims that it’s not fair.
Cubs stop Atlanta from clinching.
Tigers score 6 in the 9th and win in extras over the dead sox. Chris Sale has a 2.97 ERA (5th best in AL) and a 11-13 record. I wouldn’t mention another boner by that team but this was bad enough to tick me off.
Rays win again, Indians, Rangers, Yankees, do as well
