Okay, this was written before Game 3, but he's right on...and now that the Red Sox are 1 game away from winning the World Series, it's still worth noting that most teams down 2-0 in a World Series don't fair so well, as for being up 3-0, well, of the 22 teams that have been up that margin, 19 have won the next game. Sorry Rockies and your flag-waving (oops, towel-waving) fans, it's just that your deal with the Devil has expired. Gene Wojciechowski's column...

Alright, so I was at a bar with a buddy of mine for Game 1 (and of course games 2 and 3, but I'm staying on point here), and he went to the can and came back asking, "who talks to you in the can?" I have no idea, why? "Some guy just said out loud behind me that he couldn't believe they let me in the bar, let alone the bathroom, and that all Red Sox fans should have to go outside."
I have 5 points to make regarding this, so here goes. First, there is no talking in the bathroom, jackass. When the hell did we become friends? We aren't, so let me go about my business. Second, are you threatening me while I'm holding my junk to piss? And thinking only, "gee, I'd really like to be done pissing so I can get back to my beer and the game." Third, isn't our money green? How much money do you think was brought into a bar on a Wednesday night by Red Sox fans, even the bandwagon, never been to Fenway, liked them since 2003 variety? Don't worry, I hate those guys, too. They oughta be shot. Unless they came from a land where they had no idea what baseball was, they aren't real fans, at least not out here in Denver. I've been a fan my whole life, and I've got ticket stubs, t-shirts and broken remotes to prove it. Fourth, we're in the 'burbs here, tough guy, and that smack was weak, uncalled for, and for lack of a better phrase, kinda gay. You weren't tapping your foot, now, were you? Lastly, as a note to all if you're ever in a situation like this, here is how you respond to this jagoff and his bathroom machismo....while holding your aforementioned junk, turn while still pissing and just piss on him, telling him that you couldn't hear him and only really read lips, and that you were raised to look at those talking to you. 5 bucks says the guy was wearing a striped shirt, too.
The Series so far has been dominated by one thing, in my mind, smarter decisions. Be it the managers or the players, the Red Sox are just a better team. They take the extra base, they don't get rattled and they grind out at-bats. It's what they are built for. I can get to the whining fans of Colorado at some other point in time, but not now, this is way too much fun for one person to have. Oh, except for this...to the ladies who were sitting behind me last night at the bar, and could only come up with "the Red Sox are pussies" and "we're way hotter", little zinger for ya...that may be well and good, but if Jacoby Ellsbury showed up last night, y'all woulda been bobbing and weaving on his knob like Sugar Ray...I'm just sayin'.
Did anyone catch the Keyshawn/Ocho Cinco interview last week? It was one of the best I've seen in awhile. Great work by Keyshawn, trying to get Chad into an actual answer. Chad, your answers were juvenile, at best. Find it on YouTube, I thought it was good stuff.
Jason Whitlock's column, always a good read. It's out every Thursday on www.foxsports.com
I'm house-sitting, it's so quiet, so peaceful, and so damn clean. This, I could get used to.
The Rockies ticket "issues". If there really was a "malicious attack", then why did it take the FBI 3 days to get involved. I call Bullshit. And I sent out a link from 9news.com to some that had a lady call and complain....and the Rockes gave her tickets!!!!! Are you serious???!! That's what we've become people, the one who complains and cries the most gets what they want. "My 7 yr old really wants to see a game..boo-hoo." Hey douchebag, my 57 yr old Dad wants to see a game, too, but sometimes life sucks....and so do you and the Rockies for this pathetic display.
Football time, and I can only say this....there will be no trap games today for either Indy or New England, it's steam rolling time to get geared up for next week. I know some people think that Washington can compete with the Pats, but come on, now. You don't really think that Jason Campbell is going to be ready for this onslaught of blitzes, do you? Now if he does, please find Chris Cooley in the end zone once or twice (subliminal fantasy message here-hint, hint, wink, wink)
BC on Thursday night, did anyone watch? Great comeback, and Matt Ryan is currently on the short list to get invited to NYC for the Heisman.
DeAngelo Hall, he's right on this one--he's questioning why the Falcons would unload Grady Jackson at this time of year when they are 1-6. And I have to agree with him. Granted, he'll look dumb for awhile after costing them a home game vs Carolina when he racked up 67 yards in penalties, but this makes sense, too. Grady Jackson is a 400 lb moose that constantly requires a double-team in the middle of the D-line, and he's always doing little things in the game that help you win...why get rid of that?
Definitely more tomorrow...........
