I was talking with some folks at work today. I brought up how the Indians are playing their hottest ball of the year. I say to a co-worker: "Watch, in our weak division, we'll be three out by the end of the season and Lee/Martinez could have made a difference." He replied with a reasonable thought, the pressure is off now, so it's easy to win games.
I get in the car to go to a staff meeting at my part time job, and WTAM 1100 starts up like it always does on my radio. I hear Hammy talk about the M&M boys being at it again, when a double put the twins up 9-0. First of all, as a side note, who the hell called Mauer and Morneau the M&M boys. That's Mantle & Maris, no body else. Period. Secondly, thanks to some pitcher by the name of Huff, and some other pitcher by the name of Lewis, our Indians are where they are?
I've had enough of this second rate team. Thank God we are only 11ish days away from the start of pre-season football...if only to let me hope for 3 weeks before I realize the Browns will be terrible too.
