They’re In

Finally, the baseball gods have given us a World Series worth watching. Last year, was a bit of a snooze. Let’s be honest. It was great that the Sox won but the Cards didn’t really put up a fight.

So I didn’t really care if the Cards made it to the Series. I wanted the ‘Stros/White Sox. And so here we are. Essentially it’s kind of like how last year you were rooting for it to be The Cubs/Red Sox. And then Bartman changed all that.

(I know, I know—it was just one play. But still.)

Do you remember your first World Series? The first one I can remember is the Kansas City/Cardinals one. Jose Oquendo is for some reason, a name I remember, and it’s because of that WS. But I also remember quite vividly the ’86 series of Red Sox/Mets. I was a bandwagon Mets fan that year. And I remember in the locker room of Washington Irving middle school kids banging on lockers about their favorite teams.

I believe we sang “We Will Rock You”.
