...and so it ends...
...with neither of our baseball teams in the post-season-- maybe since they BOTH made it last year, we should have expected this??? The Cubs laid down in the last week, lost five out of seven when it looked like they might win 'em all and at least end on a good note... Geo Soto struck out to end the season, could there have been a more fitting finish? I was in Detroit this morning for a huge dose of managerial hilarity in Ozzie's office at Comerica Park-- not that I can repeat most of it in a family blog, but he was killing us with stories about the Mets and Javier Vasquez and a bunch of other topics... As always, he was brutally honest, said he was glad to see the season end after his team had struggled through the second half of it. But Ozzie's already looking forward to 2010, if only because of his pitching staff, which could be sensational... and really, the CUBS' staff should be awfully good, too.... all depending on injuries, of course but maybe there is a decent reason why we should keep the faith for another year, on BOTH sides of town.....
