Fifty hours after it began, Game 5 of the World Series went to the Phillies. Unfortunately they won three games before tonight in the series, so technically, they are the champions. And I bet they'll still talk about the Mets and their lack of "respect" during the postgame celebration.
But enough of that...unlike the Phillies I don't have a singular focus. The second Brad Lidge (who is the only person I'm happy for) got Hinske to strike out I changed the channel to the Knicks, who, get this...won! 1-0 baby! Sure it was to the Heat and yeah, they almost blew it in the end, but they won. You can say with a straight face the Knicks have a winning record.
And guess what? The Rangers are doing pretty damn well right now. Maybe new york fans will have a decent winter to quell the pain of the fall.
Or not :)
