Well, you know Kim, I guess it really did.
I am very sad about the results, but it can't erase the memories of this very magical season. The Phillies set records for the city that are going to be very hard to beat.
I loved every day......the team has character, stamina and talent. It is a fine group of men, both individually and collectively, and they have made me very happy all summer.
I can't be one of those people who is bitter and blaming......or even worse, who roots against them (or their opponents). I wasn't raised to be meanspirited.
For five days this fall, there was a contest, and in three out of those five days, the Phillies were not the better team. But they are still MY team!!!
That said.....I am hitching my wagon to the Texas Rangers for the rest of the postseason!!
