Can I go back to hating on JD Drew now? Please? It might give me solace.
On the other hand, you all can take solace in that this ends my baseball posting for 2008. See ya next year. Sigh.

I think you should have your pharmacy bill your anti-depressants to the Florida (Devil) Rays.
Just think, though: in a couple of years, when all those (Devil) Rays become free agents, Boston will have the money to snatch up all the good ones and the (Devil) Rays will go back to being just Rays.
Hey, at least you're not in Chicago, where Cubs fans used to carry signs saying "Wait'll Next Year" to Opening Day.
I still remember after the Marlins won the World Series, the owners dismantled the entire team for a fast buck. Now I hear the (Devil) Rays may move to Austin TX or some such place. Hate to think what they'd be called there.
Let me just point out that J is in Philadelphia giving a paper, and her Scottish sheep-loving colleague had her ask me where to go to get the best cheesesteak.
See, Philadelphia's singular contribution to culinary culture is known the world over!
(And I bet when they scheduled the conference noone was concerned that it would coincide with the Phillies contending for the World Series.)
I'm sure even Scottish people know that most anything is better than haggis. So if they've heard of it, they're damn well going to try it. And if they've heard of a foodstuff in Scotland, you know it had to be good to get through the many barriers to external cultural influence.
And Cheez Whiz is a wonder product: bearing only a vague relationship to actual food, I'm sure it's calories aren't absorbed by the body in any way. This is why all the cheesesteak eaters in the Philadelphia area are unnaturally thin and svelte compared to the rest of "real America".
Besides, the reason I almost DIED was due to complying with your wishes to go on a dangerous and life threatening trek through the dark forest primeval. I'm thinking not fully complying with your wishes may be a lot physically safer in the long run.
And I'll point out that if it weren't for my iPhone we'd never have known where we were and--if not already dead from exposure--we'd likely still be wandering aimlessly, surviving off the occasional Dorito like caterpillar and the crunchy ants.

So who are you rooting for in the Series?
As I believe I told you, there is no reason for anyone to root for the Phillies for anything. NExt question :-)
Yeah, but one of my best buds is a Phillies Phan, so I'm torn...
And Philadelphia did invent the cheesesteak, so you've really got to take that into account in your municipal hatreds.
Don't start that again in here.
hahahahahaha

a.) What the hell do Scottish people know about cheesesteak, other than they've vaguely heard of it?
and
b.) They eat haggis. Even Cheez Whiz probably tastes good in comparison.
And I see you're complying with my wishes really well. This is the thanks I get for rescuing you from DEATH.
