Jeff: Senators game is on today, correct? In about a half hour. Just wanted to wish your team good luck, as one of my 3—-the Lightning—-lost yesterday to kick off the year. My favorite got the only goal though, so yay.

Oh wells.
Brewers fans should be happy to have spent some time in the post-season for the first time in awhile. Between the Phillies and Dodgers…hard to say, good match-up. I’ll be rooting for the Phillies, but I wont feel bad if the Dodgers make it.
On the AL side, Tampa needs to finish off the White Sox, the Red Sox need to finish off the Angels, and then we can have an epic battle of AL East juggernauts, of good (the Rays) vs. evil (pink hats).
Tampa – Philly WS. Rays on top.
