The Division is Ours!!
Only 3.5 games back and now I smell tasty Devil Rays! Although I’m mostly a meat-eater, I do feast on fish from time to time. Canned salmon is particularly tasty and I think I’d probably take me a bite out of a Devil Ray if I ever saw one washed ashore near my lake, Lake Michigan. That’s right, it’s my lake so next time the Coast Guard tells me I don’t have permission to swim in it, I’ll tell them they don’t have my permission to ride their boat in it. I marked it, you know.
Forget about the wildcard, I want to win the division now! I also want home field advantage throughout the Playoffs, so we can set up our pitching and we don’t have to travel as much, which means more resting and feasting. Good sleeping and home-cooked eating in the Playoffs is the key to winning championships. Devil Rays, you can start choking now. We have lots of games left against the Blue Jays who have our number. Earth to the Blue Jays, you’re out so stop trying so hard. Paul Byrd is going to fly into your nest and eat your eggs. Migrate south for the winter.
As for the Twins and the White Sox, one of you can forget it. Twins are burnt out after having to leave their home for like 2 weeks because of John McCain and Sarah Palin, who loves to feast on moose burgers. Mmmm, moose burgers. Feasting. White Sox, I hope you get in and play the Red Sox in the first round so I can go to the games at the Cell, where dogs are allowed. Mmmm, Comiskey Dogs. Moose hot dogs. Tasty.
California Angels of Los Anaheim, you can forget the number #1 seed. See you in the ALCS. Or maybe you can mix it up a little and let someone else knock you out of the Playoffs this year. Pedroia for President! Free tacos for everybody!

Big Pupi — would ever feast on an Angel, that doesn’t sound canine like? Well maybe an LA Angel is ok, they probably have made a deal with the Devil since he left the Rays this year.
But homefield advantage?– have you seen the Angels schedule in Sept — looks like the baseball scheduling god’s are still watching over them? Angels could come way down to earth and still win most of their remaining games.
Hi Pupi –
Love the new hairdo – and more importantly, I think it is working a little magic. We definitely need that home field advantage – my human is buying the complete set of postseason tix and wants to see as many games as possible at Fenway. If there is anything I can do help them handle a little fish, I will! I love eating fish!

Yes, Big Pupi, and now it’s only three games that we have to move up.
I’ll be very happy regardless of how we make it to the playoffs, as long as we can do it. We’re still hoping to see the Red Sox in the post-season, but we don’t assume anything around our household. Well, the only thing I assume is that there will be Fancy Feast each morning and afternoon, and that someone will make sure I don’t have to step into a dirty litterbox when I go in there to see my picture of Jason Giambi – I have two versions now – with and without the moustache.
