Everybody call, text or generally blowup Tommy's phone or computer tonight at 8 PM......just to see if you can DRAG him away from the TV. Bet he will be in full regalia (Mets regalia that is) tonight. Good luck Tommy! Wish we (Rays) were there.....

Ha ha! I'm excited but surprisingly calm with the winning streak my team is on. It's as if this can't really be happening. As of tonight, if they win, they go to the World Series!! Unfortunately, I haven't gone to any of the playoff games. Really expensive and filled with front runners, band wagoners who two months ago couldn't name the team members and elitists with money. For the most part, they are the ones going to the games. If there's any justice, I'll be able to get my grubby paws on a World Series ticket. (I hope!)
And on a serious note, I have to say that the importance of last night's game was put into perspective when I learned that yet another NYPD cop was murdered in the line of duty. Myself and many others are numbed once again at the 4th Police Officer in NYC murdered within 11 months. And I know that there have been many, many Police Officers around the country have been murdered this year. I get it and I feel horrible whenever I hear that news. But for me, this is bad because it is so local. And that is how Cops all over the country feel when it happens near them. Most likely I will post some of this latest news when I can get myself together enough to post something rational.
So...I hope my team wins itself into the World Series tonight and I'll be happy as I can be for them...and ME! But the happiness is tempered by what happened to this 5 year veteran of the NYPD last night. Perspective....perspective.....
