Caught Up Again
So while a Senate panel approves drilling in the arctic, Harriet Miers is forced into a do-over, Condi Rice offers no comfort where Iraq is concerned, and prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald figures out what indictments to hand down and to whom, I'm totally caught up in the team that broke my heart repeatedly as a child.
After Albert Pujols' crushed his game-winning home run in Monday night's game, I must admit that I feared the worst and lost hope. But the Astros bounced back and trounced the Cards in game six. The Astros (who for many years were "my Astros") are headed to the World Series for the first time in their 44 year history.
I got my wish: the Not-Since-1917's vs. the Never-Befores. It'll be heartbreaking to see either of these teams lose the World Series.
But here's my new hope (a.k.a. Star Wars): If somehow Roger Clemens could lose while the Astros win, that would be ideal. But I hope the Astros take it in seven.

Congrats, Dan. I didn't think the Astros could bounce back. Roy Oaswalt is the man. I like the 'Stros in six (which probably means the Sox'll win).
Yeah, I figure Roger "Cock" Clemens can get in his two losses, but Pettitte and Oswalt can get two each to win it.
Right, so White Sox in five.
Why the hostility to Clemens, other than the fact that he's a head hunting, Republican, yahoo speed freak with a bad case of roid rage?
I still haven't forgiven The Cocket for launching those balls and one bat at Piazza's head. Notice how much less Clemens throws at people in the National League, when he's forced to bat?
