1. You are a good sports fan and a gentleman, Oedipus.
Sorry about your Dodgers--I've escaped heartbreak with my A's, so far.

4. Thanks
I can talk smack with the best of 'em, but what's the point? :shrug:

I'm just happy we got there. I've been saying since early September, no matter what happens, it was a hell of a ride.

And, hey — there's still plenty of baseball left. :bounce:

3. Congrats to the Dodgers on a fine season and a fine future.
You were there.

We'll probably meet again in the playoffs of the future.

5. Thanks, Rex.
I was really scared facing you guys in the playoffs. Especially when we lost Pedro. You're a heck of a fan and a wonderful gentleman.

:toast:

10. Not of your caliber
Steiner just said on the Dodgers' post-game show, "Clearly, the better team won."

I agree.

I kept trying to find a breather in the Mets' lineup. There ain't one.

I have no regrets, though. We lost 91 games in 2005 and 74 this year. It was a great turnaround, and they gave me one memory for a lifetime — those four consecutive homers to tie the Padres in the ninth inning a couple weeks ago, then Nomar's homer in the 10th to beat 'em.

Okay... pitchers and catchers report in 156 days. :bounce:

12. I don't Have it, remember?
I'm gonna call Laurie on Monday, though, to remind her pitchers and catchers report in 154 days. I'll ask her if she ever dug it up.
