Goddamn it, Phillies!

Erm…yes? I’m referring to the 1993 World Series. Which, I’ll have you know, was in fact traumatic for me, because I was going through a crazy baseball phase, to the point where my parents took me to a couple games that year. Man, I was so excited, and distinctly remember the disappointment.

Ahh, warm memories of Joe Carter in the bottom of the ninth in the sixth game

However I am a Buffalo Bills fan so I feel your pain.

Phillies are afraid of the dark

Are you … me?

I’m another one of those crazy Philly sports people, but I’m not too torn up about this, which surprises even me, quite frankly. The 1993 Series left me devastated, but this one doesn’t hurt as much, for some reason. What might kill me dead is a failure to re-sign Aaron Rowand, but somehow the pain of the sweep was dulled by the Cubs being swept first. And since I couldn’t give a turd about the NL West, and that is all that is left, I am now free to cheer unabashedly for the Red Sox. Silver lining and whatnot.

My apologies. I forgot all about that chokejob. I was thinking of the previous chokejobs that the Phillies are so famous for.

Well, yes. The 1993 World Series is no better or worse than so many of the others, only more recent.
