Tonight, while watching two of my least-favorite teams bid for a World Series title, I realized how much I have truly hated the past four Octobers.
This year especially.
I have no rooting interest.
No care about the next pitch.
And complete apathy about who will be drinking champagne within the next week-and-a-half to two weeks.
It truly sucks. It's not like it's new for me. As I said, it's been like this for the '06, '07, '08, and now the '09 postseason.
But, this year seems a lot worse.
Was it the big run 'n' flop to finish the season? Or was it the lack of a Cinderella story (a la the Rays last year) to keep me interested?
It's tough to say.
All I know is that it hit me hard tonight that I will be sitting around for the next four months (remember, pitchers and catchers report at the end of February!) with nothing consistent to rattle my brain.
No JJ, Hanson, B-Mac, Escobar, Bobby Cox, or Chipper...
Nothing to count on to write...
You know, I think that's it (and this seriously just came to me). I think that this sucky postseason is Bleacher Report's fault.
Yeah...
I'm depressed because my articles are coming at six, seven, and eight-day intervals. I'm depressed because I have writer's block.
A Phillies-Yankees Series (which I'm hoping the Evil Empire wins because I hate it when Philadelphia Sports phans aren't unhappy) has just added to it, I suppose.
I can only hope that some juicy, legitimate rumors come along after the series ends so I have something to discuss.
Damn, this stage of the offseason, though...watching people I don't care about compete for the ultimate prize...
*Sigh*
Let's go *blagggghh* (my bad, I just threw up a bit) Yankees and MLB trade rumors.
(I know this is totally NOT funny/insightful/entertaining, but I HAD to write something before I blew my brains out.)
