Well, that was quick
And just like that, the baseball season is now over.
I am sour on two fronts: I am a Tigers fan, so that was not the result I was hoping for; I am also a baseball fan, and so I dislike the day after the season ends more than any other day on the calendar. It's a miserable day.
Things are, I'm sure you know, miserable in a different way, too -- I am watching with concern as Hurricane Sandy (the "Frankenstorm") is tormenting the East Coast. We in Michigan are safe, but I have many friends and family in the storm's path. They are prepared for power outages, high winds, torrents of rain, and, further north, blizzards.
It is all enough to make a person forget about an insignificant World Series result.

Not enough, however, to forget this: Congratulations to the 2012 World Series champion San Francisco Giants, a worthy title-holder. The Giants' pitching was top-notch, their defense was remarkable, and their offense came through when they needed it. This was a team effort of supremely championship quality.
