Why I Don't Like Brooms

(Title Hint: it has to do with sweeps.) So sad, so sad.

A big, hearty round of applause to the Astros for making each game so close, and for finally bringing a World Series to Texas. Another big round for Backe, who did a sensational job for seven innings and should have been allowed more. And finally to the crowd in Houston, who cheered their hearts out, painted their faces in astonishing patterns, and wore their rally caps.

Come back next year.

Yes, sad it is.

But also sad it is that out of 9 very long innings, all they can get is a score of 1 to 0.

Even hockey can do better than that. ;)

I know!!! ARG! I mean, having great pitching keep the score low is one thing--but stranding 12 men on base is another. Siiiiigh.
