The Fall Classic is set.

The Evil Empire has gone down in flames, leaving us with a Houston v. Washington World Series. Good.

I'm rooting for the Nationals. First of all, because they are repping the National League, home of real baseball and the Giants. Secondly, because absent other factors, I always want to cheer for the city that hasn't had the joy of a World Series parade for the longest time.

The last time D.C. won the Series was in 1924.

Go Nats!
