So two days ago the Washington Nationals got eliminated from the postseason. I'm a little embarrassed to admit this, but I find myself really upset. I haven't really felt this way since I last broke up with a girl. I have this weird pit in my stomach. Everywhere I turn, I see reminders of baseball. They even played "Take On Me" at work today. I wanted to scream.
I was really loving this season. I've enjoyed having the Nationals in town since they arrived. The last few years have been upsetting since tickets were not as cheap as they were at RFK and the team was not very good. It was no fun to go to games. This season was great though. The guys were fun to watch, they were winning, and there were all these little things that made the games enjoyable, like the fans singing along to A-Ha, the gum being thrown after a home run, the clown question story, etc...
I know there is next year, but it's just like knowing that there are other girls. It just takes time I guess.
