Best Of

@peter4jc , I really don't watch (or listen to) any other teams besides the Phillies. When they aren't playing on a given night, I don't turn another games on. This year, with expectations so high, and fully half the season living up to the expectations, it was quite disheartening for them to fail they way they did, without really putting up a fight.

That being said, I was hoping another team like the Royals, or the Orioles, or Cleveland, or even Milwaukee (gasp!!) would make the WS. I would have listened and rooted for one of those teams. For the Dodgers/Yankees, no...no interest.

Time for a good cigar and whiskey ^^^

Meh, I started to lose interest when the Phillies took a dump, then completely lost interest when it became LA vs NY.

I get that, I do. It's nice to be somewhat detached though; franchise allegiance isn't supposed to eclipse the enjoyment of a given sport. People often suppose I'm a Packer fan, and my usual response runs along the lines of, "I like the Packers, but I like football more."

I would've liked NY to do better and extend the series, but it was still great fun.

edit: I'll never understand the looting that follows a win. Happiness makes you want to burn things? Sure, it's just malcontents looking for any reason to wreak havoc, which I will also never understand.
