@#$*!

Today is a day of commemoration. A damned dismal and disappointing day.

God failed to repeat his unleashing of the Fourth Plague on the Yankees and let them survive to play another day.

RIP:
the Phillies Season
April 2, 2007 – October 6, 2007

Which Phillies will show up next year? The pissed off and revved up ones that went into the playoffs? Or the depressed and silent ones that exited?

RIP:
Jeanne Anne Rader
June 27, 1945 – October 8, 2006

My cousin used to have a signature on her email I find most appropriate for this particular anniversary: “Miss You. Love You. Bye.”

On the bright side, the Red Sox won a three-game sweep of the Angels. The last time that happened was? Oh magical year! Does this mean destiny intends another titanic seven-game anti-Yankee battle? One way or another we’ll know by Wednesday night.

And tomorrow will be a better day.
