No fucking kidding. I was so sick to my stomach when they rolled through the Cubs, they looked better then they had all season and it just didn't seem like they were going to get beat and they did. Convincingly. The reaction I had to that sprint was a more toned down version of what I had when Hopkins schooled Pavlik. I knew it could happen, I knew they had talent but dammmmnnn. Except you can take a few m's off the damn when describing the Phillies.
But Jonny Gomes needs to get a world series ring because if he does I guarantee you I'll see it one day

BJ Upton and his brother are two of my favorite players ever. They went to school in Virginia and their high school batting coach was my dad's coach at Great Bridge High School when he played baseball and my dad keeps in touch they write a couple times a year and he always sends clippings on how the team was doing. Well my dad was showing me the clippings when Justin Upton was in high school and describing what they were saying about it him and it was crazy what the expectations were. I was living there and distinctly remember when Ronald Curry was THE MAN. He was playing quarterback at Hampton (I saw them) at the same time both Michael Vick and Aaron Brooks were playing in the same state. Ronald Curry was the high school player of the year for football, and he was McDonald's slam dunk champion and high school basketball player of the year. Two awards for best player in two different sports, both national. The hype he had (NFL Films was out for the game of his he played against my brother's team Booker T.) was the same type of hype the brothers had and I have an appreciation for that stuff when a local community boost guys like that. So I definitely hope he does good.
Holy shit that was like 10 different tangents I went on, tried to coral at the end but I'm not sure I succeeded.
