Everybody Hurts

Welcome to the Nation, kid. After backing awkwardly into the playoffs, the Sox have effectively run screaming out of them, and the Twins have flamed out as well. I am now rooting for the Phills, because of my secret crush on the Phanatic. Who doesn't love a furry... thing... with a big green butt?

And, by rooting for the Red Sox and the Phillies, I get to ensure that I am always hating on the NY teams. I grew up in Manhattan, and I <3 NY, but the Mets and Yanks SUCK! That is all.

(What can I say, my dad's from Philly, and I'm now living in Cambridge.)

I just felt so bad for that kid, when I saw that picture. I've had that day (afternoon, night) so many times in my life since I was that age, and in 2004 I found myself living in central Pennsylvania, cackling insanely on my couch and for weeks afterwards, and no one to share it with. I had high hopes for the Phils this year. Sigh. Anyway: keep bringing the NY hate.
