Now that's good baseball

Man, that was a fun game last night. And former Met Jose Vizcaino briefly was a hero! And then Scott Fucking Podsednik hits a homer off of Brad Lidge? I mean, I hit as many homers during the regular season as Posdenik (seriously).

And no, I'm not counting the 'Stros out. After all, my beloved '86 Mets lost the first two at home agains a 'Sox team, too. Granted, they had the power of Lots of Cocaine driving them, but they also had heart.

Oh, look, by the way: Baseball is upset about the current Got Milk campaign. You know what? If the sport had ever pretended to actually give a shit about steroids, I might have some sympathy for them.

In other sports news, I continue to love my Isles, not just because I'll be an Isles fan until I die, but because they generate headlines like Satan Riding Sudden Hot Streak.

I'm still shocked that the Stros aren't up 2-0. They really are a damned good team for a wild card.

I knew the Astros weren't going to win game one with the way Clemens pitched but last night I really was sitting there going wtf? It baffled me. First the pitch called ball, not foul and then the homerun off Lidge in the 9th. At least they have Oswalt to face on Tuesday. I think this series is going to go to 7 games. Oh, and to make matters worse, I have a friend from college that I really don't like talking to that is from Chicago and she called me after both games to talk smack.
