...the networks don't like this World Series match up. If you have at least one major-market team in the Series -New York, Boston, Philadelphia, etc. - you could have some drama. But when you have TWO Cinderella teams, it's like watching the Junior World Series (apologies to all of you Ranger & Giant fans). I'll watch some of tonight's game, Lee is awesome and Lincecum is exciting, but I probably won't see too much more.
Anyway, Rangers in six, just to keep my hand in.
***CC UNDER THE KNIFE***
Sabathia is having surgery on a torn meniscus in his left knee. It's considered "minor" surgery (not according to Annie-O, who's had this), and recovery is about three weeks. You have to wonder if this might have been part of the problems CC had in the playoffs.
Interesting headline on ESPN: "YANKS MOVE TO IMPROVE PITCHING." It turns out that it was a story about firing Dave Eiland. Nobody is saying why, but something is going on here.
***FROM JANICE HOUGH***
She has suggested a new nickname for the San Francisco Forty-niners. Her name: the Fourth and Niners. Gotta love Janice.
***ALMOST FORGOT DWIGHT***
"Chicago QB Jay Cutler's numbers in his team's three losses in Mike Martz's pass-happy offense: 19 sacks, 5 interceptions, 2 lost fumbles, 1 concussion.
"Is 'Mad Mike' trying to kill the guy?" asked Jeff Gordon of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. "Apparently he is. It would be more expedient to beat him with a sledgehammer at practice and get it over with."
