We have a few days to catch up on our sleep before the madness begins again. I’m kind of pulling for Houston to win game 7 of the NLCS tonight for a couple of reasons: 1) I have friends in and from Houston and 2) it would be fun to see Clemens pitch in Boston against the team he abandoned for The Evil Empire before heading “home” to Houston. Boston fans are not forgiving of that sort of betrayal in light of the Curse.

Meantime, Robert the Llama Butcher has the best Star Wars picture up to commemorate the Fenway Rebel Alliance’s defeat of the Evil Empire (for some reason their page won’t load right now. I’ll try to get the permalink in a bit). I enjoyed his postgame Star Wars analogous analysis this week.

UPDATE (8:10pm): Munuvia is reborn. The permalink for Robbo’s post is here. Please go visit, since he missed out on the daytime traffic because of technical difficulties.

UPDATE (Fri 10:28am): Congrats to Christopher whose St. Louis Cardinals defeated Clemens and crew last night. As I said in the comments - we should have a good World Series ahead. May the Curse be ended.
