Oh, I didn't know any of the players when I started reading, either.


You know you wanna. ;)

you, my friend, are made wholly out of win.

Ah, but without this *points up* I would have only had the Astros, and though some will argue, hometown ties are not enough when your whole childhood was made out of, "don't care about those guys, because they will only break your heart." Because now, with this fucking Ed Wade character, I have nothing left but a first baseman and a pitcher and knowing that both of those guys would waive their no-trade clauses to get the hell outta town is ... well, heartbreaking. Shoulda listened to my mother.

And while Beane breaks hearts, there's at least the pretty boys who keep showing up and better yet, the feeling that at any moment, this could be a good team again. Here's to blind hope and hopeless devotion, and also to convincing more girls that baseball is the way to go, for whatever reason and using whatever impetus.
