Eh, half their players are either injured or suspended right now but they'll be back for the home stretch of the season. If the Seahawks play the way they have been we'll finish second and stagger into a wild card berth.

I think either the Seahawks or the 49ers could turn it around and the 49ers do have the more favorable schedule but the Cardinals are going 15-1 and winning the Super Bowl so it won't matter. (at least one can hope).

Well, as long as it isn't the Seahawks.

I've seen games go perfect for 12 innings all for naught. I've seen no-hitters pitched on illicit drugs. Homer streaks lasting eight games and 20 run losses. I've seen pennants won and seasons collapse. All these memories will be lost in time. Like tears in the rain.

Time to die.
I know I've said about a million "worst thing about this game" but I think we can all agree is that it's not even midnight and baseball's gone. This game went by too quickly.

And thank goodness Gordon didn't try to score because he probably would've and Gregor Blanco would be required by the Unwritten Rules Of Baseball to change his name to Fred Snodgrass

Alright so see you all in a week, when we're shrieking about how loving bad the Twins pitching will be this year.

Watching Erin Andrews and Bud Selig during the Chevy guy's speech is hilarious.

Erin is trying as hard as possible to not crack up, and Bud is wondering who the hell is this guy while still on-camera.

Tremendous.

I love the card he reads from. And how he doesn't have the keys. Would it have killed Chevy to bring in someone who has PR skills?

And so we come the final chapter, in which Alan Huber and Baseball come to the enchanted place and we say goodbye.

"Goodbye? Oh please can't we go back to Opening Day and do it all over again?"

Sorry Baseball, but all seasons must have an ending. Yes the time had come at last. Alan Huber was going away to retirement, nobody in the leagues knew where or why he was going, except for it had something to do with "Memoirs" and where some place called "Marquette University" was.

"Baseball, what do you like doing best in the world? " Alan Huber asked.

"What I like best is when you come to visit me and you saying "buy me some peanuts and crackerjack..."

"I like that too. But what I like best is just doing nothing."

"How do you do just nothing?"

"Well, it's when the grown-ups ask 'what are you going to do about the game?' and you're saying 'something' and then you go out and do nothing."

"I like that. Let's do it all the time!"

"You know something Baseball? .... I'm not going to do nothing any more."

"You mean never again?"

"Well, not so much. Baseball, when I'm away just doing nothing will you come up here sometimes?"

"You mean alone? Just me?"

"Yes. And Baseball. Promise you won't forget me,ever?"

"Oh I won't Alan, I promise."

"Not even when I'm a hundred?"

"How old shall I be then?"

"165, silly old game."

Wherever they go and whatever happens to them on the way in that enchanted place in the cornfields a little game will always be waiting.
