Go...Rays?

Well, Tampa won. That makes teams I support 1-5 so far this postseason. Philly and the Dodgers jumped to commanding 2-0 leads in their respective series. Milwaukee is in trouble as they were counting on at least 3 victories from CC Sabathia this series, meaning he will have to start and win the next 3 games. The Cubs are in trouble because they're the Cubs. Also, they were the team I was rooting for to win it all, and they lost the first two games at home. It's not impossible for them to win the next 3 games in a row, but I wouldn't exactly start making plans for a Windy City Series. At least Tampa won. Super rookie Evan Longoria Parker, er Eva Longoria, er, whatever homered in his first two at bats but only singled in a run his third time up, proving once again that rookies can't handle the pressure of postseason play.

At least I'm consistent!

EVERY team I root for loses. Need proof? In the LDS, I'm rooting for the Cubs, against the Phillies (FUCK Philadelphia), and against the insufferable Red Sox fans. Three games were played last night, and who won? That's right, the Phillies over the Brewers, the Dodgers over the Cubs, and Red Sox over humanity. I mean the Red Sox over the Angels. As an interesting side note, the Red Sox have now won 10 consecutive postseason games over the Angels, tying the record set by the A's who won 10 straight in October against the Red Sox.
