The Baseball Season is OVER

[gridlore]

Screw the Yankees. Sorry rosefox, but I just can't bring myself to care. There's no story here. No drama. The Yankees are simply the best team that money can buy, with an owner that is only slightly less evil than Bud Selig. The Marlins? Give me a break. These guys can't even sell out NLCS games! A bunch of no names who will be traded after the season is done. (if they win the Series, expect to see a number of them wearing pinstripes next year.)

So, I'm hanging up my baseball hat for the year. Wake me when pitchers and catchers report.

A friend of mine works for Ticketmaster (you may express your sympathies now), in one of their West Coast call centers. The last few days, many East Coast calls for series tickets have been mistakenly routed to this center.

The Marlins fans have been polite and understanding of the error, overall. The reactions of the Yankees fans have been mostly unprintable. Comments on the general character of NYers aside, I suppose this is the sense of entitlement that results from believing the pennant has been bought and paid for.

Oh, but hey, look on the bright side:
Without a Cubs-Sox series, the chances of the Earth exploding (ala Krypton) have gone down significantly!
