Wild Card
Well, today's ballgame in Baltimore won't be as exciting as it could have been - the Yanks didn't catch the Sox, and have to settle for the wild card slot. Still - it's been a long while since I've been to a ballgame, and my daughter has never been to one. We'll be out all afternoon, which means that the podcast I'm almost ready to release (just waiting on one piece of additional audio) won't be out until this evening.
Mets and Phillies fans still have some nail biting to do - those teams are tied, and the loser is not assured a wild card slot - the second team in the NL west currently has a better record (by one game) then either of them.

I bet Steinbrenner is thrilled. I can hear him now: "I paid $195 million in salaries this year, but it was worth it. I am so proud to be the Wild Card team."

Steinbrenner is happier than the people behind the Mets :)

I spent yesterday afternoon with my neighbor, watching the Packers on his 50-inch HD. At every commercial break, he flipped back over to the Met game. I think his entire family is on suicide watch. Does Willie Randolph still have a job?
