So, as I predicted, the Rockies have won the National League pennant in a most sweeping fashion. I’m not sure if it’s their luck or mine on this thing, because back on September 18th, when the Rockies had only a 3.1% chance of even making the playoffs, I asked Julia if I could go to the World Series in Denver if the Rockies made it. Well, here we are four weeks later, and they’re in! Now I just have to get lucky enough to find a way to get tickets without selling my soul to the Yankees or something…

Dude, are you psychic or something?! I can’t believe you guessed that! 3.1% chance?!!!
How cool would it be if you DID get to go to the World Series!! Whoa!
I’m not psychic, I just lucked out in being right. Or maybe I somehow willed them to win. A lot of it is because they’re the closest team, and we tried to go to a game earlier this year which got rained out. Plus, I’ve been a bit of a Rockies fan since they started – they used to show the games on Fox all the time, even back when it was on Channel 14. While you were busy doing homework, I was watching the Rockies.
Maybe angels helped them win the pennant! Anyone seen Angels in the Outfield?
Of course I’ve seen Angels in the Outfield… but don’t expect me to wave my arms like that at a game any time soon.
Then again, maybe there were others helping them. Check out this link for a cool story: http://www.floridatoday.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20071024/SPORTS/310240004/1002/SPORTS
