Should my beloved Red Sox fail to make the World Series, the match-up I would like to see there would be the Astros meeting the Yankees.
Why?
Picture, if you will, Roger Clemens heading out to the mound to start Game 1 at Yankee Stadium. And picture, if you will, the crowd reaction the first time Clemens throws a 94-mile-an-hour fastball at Derek Jeter’s head…
Interesting, too, that the Astros had to fire Jimy Williams in order to get kick-started...
Astros, yaaay!
(Thus ends my contribution to sports discussion. I own an Astros hat and Tshirt because they're the closest thing to my hometown team, and also because I like red. That's about it.)
