A Bitter End

Again I apologize for my lack of blogging as of late. Baseball was running my life and I am sad to say that it is no longer. The Tribe completed one of the worst meltdowns in MLB history last night by finally blowing their 3-1 series lead to the Bo-Sox!

For me, and that is all I can speak for, it wasn't the fact that they lost, rather, how they lost. They had a 3-1 series lead, meaning that is all they had to do was avoid getting beat three in a row. Not only could they not avoid a three game skid but they lost the last three games but a ton! They were not one run games! I mean the game that ended the season was a 11-2 Bo-Sox bashing of the Tribe! How could you let your livelihood die that way?

As hard as it is to accept the end of the Tribe's season we should not let that overshadow the outstanding season they did have...No one expected them to get past NY...Not only did they beat NY but they did it in five games! And despite C.C. and Fausto's post season train wreck they both had spectacular regular seasons, that were amongst the best in the league.

Yes, It's hard to swallow...Yes, the fact that Christmas Ale is out does make it a little bit easier to swallow...Hopefully when it's all said and done we will at least be able to say that we lost to the World Series Champs!
