What the hell happened? I was keeping tabs on my phone and saw the Twins jumped to an early 3-0 lead, and I went to bed. Woke up this morning and checked my phone again and they lost 8 to 4! I was really pulling for them...because I HATE the Yankees, but also because I figured some of you guys would be at least casual fans as well. Well at least they made the playoff's, lots of teams didn't even get that far so maybe they can build on that next year.

Santana the starting pitcher for the Twins had little to nothing of his good stuff and he squandered the Twins lead. Hard to figure how he could choke like that. After Santana the Yankees had the momentum and a better bull-pin and that was about it.

I think Santana had 42 pitches in the first inning. What a bummer he had to come out of the gate like that, especially after the top of the first having put 3 runs up and knocking their starter out after 1/3 of an inning.

That's the tough part about a wildcard.....1 game....that's it. If you stumble, you go home! My cubbies have the highest first inning ERA in baseball and I fear that is going to come back to haunt us this year in the playoffs. We don;t have as strong a team this year as we did last year and it's going to be tough for us as well. Now I'm pulling for the Tribe in the AL - they have had a long wait and after last years world series ending I would like to see their fans get their time in the sun.....unless it's against my cubs again.....then.....screw them, they can wait another year!

^ Still, the Twins left a number of players on base with few outs.....and but for a few hits here and there could have won that game. Next year!

Well, my Cubbies gave it a pretty good shot, but came up short as well.

I have been a cubbies fan for as long as I can remember.....and I take my allegiance pretty seriously. After an incident at school I think I may need to actually tone it down. My middle daughter is a big fan as well and is 15. When the Dodgers where roughing up my cubs a boy/dodgers fan in her class was giving her shit about it...... She threatened to spit on him! And to be honest....she just might have. The teacher overheard the banter and decided that maybe they should be separated in class. She tells my wife and I this at the dinner table and she was pretty proud of her self. My wife looked at me across the table like, "See what you started". So I had to say something...."Jenna, we don't spit on dodgers fans...even if they deserve it.............We save that for Yankees fans!" I thought my wife was going to choke, and then that it was high-fives all around the table!!! Awesome parenting....I know!!!! No offense Chummer, I would prefer to be run over by ANY band wagon than not support my team. Bandwagon fans of any type just piss me off. I see it here a lot how everybody is a fan when the team is winning yet not a word is spoken otherwise. Not me.....I was a fan when we sucked, I was a fan when we really sucked! I was a fan when we had a glimmer of hope and I was a fan when we won it all. No band wagon here. I don't have a dog in the fight now, but I would like to see Houston win it.....They have never won it.....
