I’m a huge baseball fan. I love the Red Sox and they just won game #1 of the ALDS against the Yankees (which makes 4 post-season wins in a row against the Yankees, which is one of those weird things you get with post-season baseball, since the last game they played was 14 years ago)
Anyway, I love the Sox and the other thing is fantasy baseball – Rotisserie league baseball, to be a precise. I’ve been in an NL only league for 25 years now, with some guys I met through strat-o-matic baseball in college. Well, one guy. There were others in the league I knew from there at first, but only 1 now.
The Sox are in the playoffs, after having the best season ever for a Sox team, and one of the better seasons ever. And I managed to win my league, for the first time since 2003. I mainly get a big-honking trophy for the year starting in April.
