I wanted the Snakes to win. For one thing, there should be some sort of law against winning 4 (or 5!) Series in a row, and besides, I was getting tired of the slumbering Yankee dragon suddenly waking up in the playoffs and beating the tar out of everyone.

And no, I don't think I'm being unpatriotic.

...I never saw anyone perform anything resembling two plays Derek Jeter made. And Shilling, acting like Radbourn, and Rivera, making mistakes. And the Big Unit, coming in to pitch after pitching the night before.

Haven't been that excited since Kirk Gibson hit the limp off home run against Dennis Eckersly in '88. While all my fellow A's fans were switching off the T.V. and grunmbling, I was still pointing at the screen and saying, "DID YOU SEE WHAT THAT MAN JUST DID?
HE HIT A HOME RUN BECAUSE IF HE"D HIT A SINGLE, HE NEVER WOULD HAVE MADE IT TO FIRST BASE!

Much too much out of me.
