You Just Know It Will Happen.

Now that the Cubs have won the World Series for the first time in 108 years, they won't win it for another 108 years. 

Of course no one reading this in 2016 will be around to know I'm right if I am right.

The Truly Important Blue Jays Question.

Was today's top of the ninth at bat by Munenori Kawasaki his last appearance as a Blue Jay?  My personal dream scenario is Kawasaki hitting a walk off grand slam to win the World Series for the Jays.

Go Tigers!

With Baltimore knocked out there's only one choice in the American League.  I want the Tigers to beat the Yankees.

That Mournful Sound.

Listen carefully and you might hear the lamentations of many Texas Rangers fans.  The late innings of tonight's game were pretty awful  The way this is going the Rangers may end up getting swept and have that conclude at home.  Nasty.

It's Not Just Me.

I'm sitting here watching the World Series, and a bit ago I saw someone who looked for all the world like Buzz Osbourne of the Melvins.  It seems I wasn't the only one who thought it was him, as I accidentally stumbled across people Twittering that they saw him.  If it wasn't him it's someone with identically styled grey hair.

Congratulations, Eric.

There's bound to be quite a bit of press over the next few days about Alex Rodriguez finally getting a World Series ring with the Yankees. But you don't have to be a superstar to have one, or even multiple rings. Former Toronto Blue Jay Eric Hinske was part of the Yankees's World Series lineup, marking his third appearance in the series in 3 consecutive years and his second with a winning team, having been a part of the Boston Red Sox's winning 2007 lineup. He also appeared in the Tampa Bay Ray's unsuccessful 2008 World Series appearance. Not bad for a guy whose role has for several years been that of a utility bench player. A lot of much more hyped players won't get to play in one World Series, let alone three, or end up with two World Series rings. And who knows, his career still has some gas left in it.
