Blame the Cardinals Loss On Me.... the Red Sox... blame them

      I admit it, the Cards lost today because of me. I supersitiously have not worn my cardinals hat since the post season began, actually since about the beginning of August as I did not want to jinx the Cardinals chances. However today in a moment of weakness I put on the cap to mow the lawn thinking, "Superstition is for losers, I'll prove that it won't jinx them and they'll win regardless of my hat..." Oh how foolish i was. So blame it on me guys, sorry Suppan, its my bad. They played well, but much like the game against Lima, its not that Clemens was all that great, he was good, but the Cardinals just wouldn't swing at some choice pitches. Maybe they just don't like game 3's?
       The Red Sox.... um well... who knows what their deal is. I mean, you got some of the best pitching, best hitting, I think they have the best combination of hitters and pitchers, a real well balanced team, but they seem to lack whatever it takes to get you over the hump. The Yankees seem to have the confidence and I realize they have a choice team Rob and Ute, but I don't think they are as good as past Yank's teams. But I could be wrong in a week or so, we'll know.

In other news, its still cold in the house, we baby sat at a friends house so we got to experience a warm house for the night. I'll probably call the gas company on monday as we're having people staying with us next weekend and I'd feel bad to have them die of hypothermia.
      Also my wife's on her death bed... she's got bad allergies and has to go see the allergist in a few days but you're not allowed to take any anti-histomeans or allergy medicine 5 days prior to going so she's feeling like a bucket o' crap right now and has been for the past few days.
