Thank you for your kindness at P.P.Pizza tonight. My 13 year old son recognized you and his friend approached you. My son has bipolar disorder and has worked very hard to overcome some great challenges. Over the last year he has accomplished remarkable things personally and academically. You were very kind to them and gave Shaun a birthday memory he will never forget. When we got home, we looked up the Bible verse you listed. Wow! How perfect! Thank you for stepping up to the plate and being a ROLE MODEL.

Who in the baseball world had the D-Backs going to the NLCS? No one! Thats what makes this season so special, raw talent, with a sprinkle of veterans, and we could be talking World Series!

Sox were at home when they managed to squeeze out a win. They also had another day at home to get another impossible win. Sorry D-Backs. Game 2 will haunt you for Halloween.

They didn’t have to come back from 0-3 on the road. If the D-Backs want to win this series, they have to take game 4 & 5 on the road, and take Game 6 & 7 at home. I don’t see it happening. Boston had the luxury of being at home to win their first game. D-Backs are only in the hottest team’s backyard. A team that has won 20 of their last 21 games. The Rockies have defied all the odds. Needing the Padres to lose their last two games and they had to win out to just make it to a one game playoff. In that game, they went 2 runs behind and faced the one of the best closers in the game. If they came come out winners in those scarce moments, they can close down a D-Backs team that just keeps talking and hasn’t shown the ability to control this series. Clark is bitter of not making it to the World Series when he could taste it. Yankees have never recovered from that meltdown. D-Backs passed up on their opportunity to change the series when they messed up in the 9th of Game 2. Bad base running put them in a hole that not even the best team of all time could come out of. Babe Ruth, Bonds, Mays and no other can help the D-Backs. Rockies will go to the World Series. I’m not sure who will win the title, but it will be good.

I’m not even a Rockies fan. I like the Giants. D-Backs had a good year and played above their expectations. There are too many good teams in the NL West. D-Backs will miss out on the playoffs next year. It’s not that often a team without a superstar will return to the playoffs two years in a row. You need a team to win once you make the playoffs, but a superstar to lead you there. Livan Hernandez choked just like when he ruined the Giants chances of a ring. Couldn’t care less about him. Everyone keeps bringing up the 04 Sox. Stop dreaming because that only happened once in sport’s history. History doesn’t repeat itself that often. You guys had a great season and defied the critics, but it’s over. If not tonight, the next game will be your last. Winning 4 straight games in the playoffs is rare. Winning four straight in a series is scarce. When Boston won one game at a time, I could see the fire in their eyes. They had superstars, Ortiz, Ramirez, Damon and awesome pitching. These D-Backs players keep talking and having done anything to change things. It’s easy to talk, but you have to translate those words into wins. You guys just don’t have it. You don’t want it bad enough.

There is no way you will come back. All the talk about the 04 Boston team is not going to work. Don’t forget, that no team has ever came back after losing the first two games at home. The D-Backs play better than their roster. They are like the 03 Marlins, but are in no position of going to the World Series. I will bet a million dollars they will not win. They were outplayed in Game 1, couldn’t do squat in Game 2 and just looked lethargic in Game 3.

What ever happens today doesn’t matter. You guys are STILL a better team than the Rockies which you have proven all season. You were in first place when everyone else fell apart and stayed there. You are a class act and a team to reckoned with in the future.

Play your best and don’t regret ANYTHING!!
