The problem with putting your heart and soul into a sports team is that while the highs are high, the lows are really low. I need to work on putting the D'backs' losses behind me, but last night's was really hard to take. The game was in hand, then Tony Pena gave up "5 of the fastest runs I've ever seen" (broadcaster Mark Grace) to the hated S.F. Giants. Sigh. The good guys have only a one game lead over the Padres in the NL West. On the brighter side, it's September 18, and my team is still very much in the hunt for the post-season. And yes, I know the picture isn't of "my" team, but of one of my favorite players on one of my other favorite teams.
