Still Shell Shocked

It's been a week since the most memorable 90 minutes of Baseball Played happend in front of my disbelieving eyes. The Red Sox lost in the most bizzare manner [the Whole month of September, really was a lost month for them - at 7 and 20] and the Tampa Bay Rays won in incredible fashion. Coming back from 7 runs down in the 8th inning to over-take the Yankees in extra innings and sink the Red Sox into their own mire.

Still shell-shocked about the whole thing, really.

Various Sports writers have written items, now, about discord in the Red Sox locker-room for the 2nd half of the season. Hind-Sight being 20-20 and all. But, Now, Terry Francona has been given his walking papers. Theo Epstein might be interviewing for a higher-level job at the Chicago Cubs. All things Red Sox have kind-of ground to a halt.

The Rays have already been exiled to the off-season, due to 3 losses against the Texas Rangers in the ALDS. The Yankees were pushed to the Brink in their series against the Detroit Tigers and that will get decided tomorrow night.

I have switched over to full-time watching and caring for Football for the next 3-4 months. Not sure what The Hot-Stove or Spring Training will bring. Will wait and see. - Need to get some much needed sleep, now, from the frantic Baseball watching of September!

Updated: 10/07/2011 - All I can say is that I'm glad THE EVIL EMPIRE was knocked out of the play-offs, last night. Makes things a bit easier to live with.
