Now I was rooting for the Phills but after they went down 3-2 games I just gave up watching… being the biggest baseball fan in the area I refused to watch the last 2 games, which was weird but now I can recover and wait for the new Twins season.

The bandwagon ball? Come on we all know that ONE guy who bandwagons one of those teams… and call him out for it when he strikes back with some ridiculous statement to sound cool… Something to the effect of “Your a bandwagon (in my case New Orleans Saints fan, which isn’t true) fan” or 26 (now 27) time world champions!” or the classic “Your just jealous because my team is better.” I have heard it ALL and nothing is usually new… About the newest statement I have heard in a defense was “Well I don’t know the history, but I am still a fan.” You kinda need to know the history TO be a fan… I am lucky because here in Minnesota we respect the baseball ancestors especially from the 80s and 90s. I don’t see much of this from the Yankees and whatever else teams.

So in anticipation for 2010,  I have been parading around in my teams clothes… Twins and Nationals. But one thing that I don’t have to wait that long for (it feels like forever) is the annoucing of the 2009 AL/NL MVP which of course will be Joe Mauer (he already won AL POY, Upper Midwest POY and a buncha other cool things) and Albert Pujols (who won the NL POY).
