As I mentioned yesterday, the crushing end of the Bruins season in game seven of the Stanley Cup Finals took all of my sports-watching interest and flushed it down the toilet. I had been following the Red Sox pretty closely prior to that, even though they were mired in a spectacularly mediocre World Series hangover, but once the Bruins lost I just couldn’t bear it anymore and I more or less gave up on baseball entirely.
Due to this, I have no idea what’s going on as the playoffs begin. I missed the wild card games entirely, and now we’re into the Division round and I barely know what’s going on.
Allow me then to announce who I am publicly rooting for in the MLB Post Season:
In the Houston vs Tampa Bay series, I am an Astros fan. Screw you, Devil Rays.
In the St Louis vs Atlanta series, I don’t give a flying leap. I hope they both lose.
In the Washington vs Los Angeles series, I also don’t give a flying leap. Having said that, I hate the Dodgers with a passion, so I guess I’m a Nationals fan. I guess.
In the Minnesota vs New York series, LETS GO TWINKIES! BEAT THOSE EFFIN YANKEES! In other words, I may have taken the season off from being a baseball fan, but I haven’t given up entirely.
Go Twinkies.
