October is here. Ahhhhhh.  Cool weather, leaves changing colors, long sleeve T’s, toboggans and no more ice-cream trucks with that horrible jack-in-the-box music rolling down my street trying to sneak up on the kids in my neighborhood.  Thank you. Which means only one thing.  Football, more football, baseball playoffs and golf is finished.  Sorry Dad, I love you but I’m good on golf.  It’s always about Tiger (bleeping) Woods.  The Presidents cup was a lot of blah, what I witnessed of it anyway.  What I did see as always was Tiger pouting, imagine that.  Then making the the top highlight reel on ESPN by sinking a long putt on the 17th hole on the 1st day of play against the Europeans.  Woods and Clark went on the win that match.  So did the U.S.A.  Who knew Tiger could putt? Tiger, please do me a favor and look up the words (golf etiquette and role model) in the dictionary.  Please.  Tiger you graduated from Stanford?  Come on man.  Whew, damn I’m glad I got that out of my system.  I’m just saying.

Oops my bad, I got caught up in some BS.  Football everybody, baseball everybody.  Does anyone care?  I do, so hop on the October sports wagon.  Okay, how about we talk some baseball for starters.  Once again those damn N.Y Yankees are in the ALCS championship series again after sweeping the Minnesota Twins in dramatic fashion.  I despise ARod. I’m just saying.  Really, do Yankees fans even like this over-paid, steroid using, womanizing bum?  Sileno do you like ARod?  Yeah, you probably do as long as he is getting hits.  Can’t blame you.  You can’t take anything away from the Bronx bombers, they’re good.  N.Y will have their hands full though with the LA Angels of Anaheim .  Go figure that.  LA of Anaheim?  The Angels are truly that, Angels.  Young pitcher Nick Adenhart was killed early in the season by a drunk driver.  Adenhart was only 22 years old.  R.I.P.  Look for this young mans number 34 on the Angels jerseys.  The Angels have rallied around his passing all season long.  The Angels also have gotten here with some great hitting and pitching and find themselves 36 outs away from the world series.  Good luck, you’ll need it.  Poor St.Louie, damn they got swept by Joe Torre and the LA Dodgers, just as the Dodgers sweep the NL Central Cubs last year.  Bring on the tears.  Poor Cubs and that goat.  Now the Dodgers must face the defending world series champions, the Philadelphia Phillies and Ryan Howard.  Howard you should have meet with the lil’ girl and not taken the ball away from her after hitting your 200th home run back in July.  Bad Karma.  How did that work out for you guys in Philly?  I’m just saying. The Phillies took out the Colorado Rockies in 4 games to advance. Philly took care of the Dodgers in last years NLCS in 5 games.  LA will be looking for revenge, LA has beaten the Phillies 4 out 7 games played this regular season.  The regular season is over though, and it’s a new day.  I would love to see Joe Torre and the Dodgers face the Yankees in the World Series.  Talk about revenge.  Torre managed the Yankees for 12 years winning the World Series 4 times.  Torre is an excellent manager and is very familiar with the Yankees line-up.  Joe love LA.  I’m just saying.

Tune in tonight as LA and Philly take the field to get the division series started.  N.Y and the Angels play Friday night. Should be some intense games, it’s the post-season and every pitch, at-bat, and out are huge.  Don’t miss it.  So, I didn’t mention many names or stats in my blog, if you want stats and name dropping, go to ESPN.  I just give you my opinion and a basic round up.  I also didn’t talk football.  Monday I will be ranting about football, so bring it back and feel free to call me out.  Damn I love Sundays.  I’m just saying.
