Manny Being Manny

In the words of Forrest Gump "That's all I have to say 'bout that."

Boston goes up, 2-0, in the best of five ALDS series against the Angels. The teams head back to Anaheim (I think, because their name is so goddamned confusing. "The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim"? *snort*) In any case, wherever they're going, they'll be playing the third game with Curt Schilling set to face Jered Weaver.

In the other series, Cleveland eked out a win over New York to take a 2-0 lead as well. I'm lovin it. I don't want to face the Yankees in the ALCS - I want them rubbed out in the first round for the third year in a row. Mostly so I can rub my boss' face in it next week because on top of being an unmitigated asshole, he is a YANKEES FAN. (Is that redundant?) I don't have all that much confidence in Cleveland's starter, Jake Westbrook, but New York has to wonder which Roger Clemens will show up for the game.

Lots of baseball, lots of football, and still time to celebrate Mrs. Potato's birthday. Happy b-day, sweetheart.
