Wow.
It amazes me that it has been a whole month. I guess that is what happens when you travel for work and are busy catching up with friends and family and baseball when you get back :-)
So the world series was a straight win, and although it upset me, I was secretly happy because I only missed one game. Otherwise I would have missed all of them while in Santa Monica.
It was a much better trip than France. I had the Everclear song in my head the entire time, and by the end of the trip I ran onto the beach and stuck my feet in the ocean. So cliche, but hey, who cares!
The holidays are upon us, which means that I have been blogging for a year! Well not really considering I took a huge hiatus in 2006, but technically it's been a year. I do like the holiday season, I like the lights and no matter how many people complain about the commercialism of Christmas, I frankly couldn't care less. Let people buy gifts if they want to! The only complaint I have is the sudden cold weather that comes with the season.
Yesterday Mat and I saw the film ENCHANTED. Disney has been having problems over the last few years putting out quality animated films- releasing such hits as The Lion King 2 and 3, etc.
Other than High School Music (which I have not, nor care to see) nothing much else has been keeping them a float in the film world. Until NOW.
This movie was hilarious. It was feel good, satirical, laugh out loud goodness. Yesterday was the opening night. We went to the 9:50pm show and it was completely packed...not by children, but all adults. We are talking every age here! There was almost as much laughter from the audience as there was when I went to see Superbad. The film starts off animated, painting a soon to be princess and her price falling in love at first sight and planning a wedding for the following day. The Prince's wicked stepmother casts the princess into New York city, as she doesn't want to lose her crown to the princess, and the film continues from there with real actors.
The classic character portrayals include a bumbling hentchman who serves the wicked stepmother of the prince as well as a sidekick chipmunk who helps the Prince throughout his journey to rescue his princess in the REAL WORLD. Amy Adams does an incredible job of bringing a naive and overly caring animated character to life, and James Marsden who plays the prince, is just as humourous. I won't give away the plot, because you should all see it.
Bottom line is Disney Did Good.
On a more somber note, Joe Kennedy died yesterday. He was a player that the Jays acquired in August, but didn't sign for next season. He was 28 and had a daughter and a wife. It's quite sad that he died so young and so suddenly. When stuff like this happens, it really should make you value your own life, and the lives of your loved ones, but somehow, the reality check only lasts for so long.

Ha see YA hold tight!
Well, if you couldn't tell from my subject line that I am the proud holder of a ticket to see the Spice Girls, then you'd best stop reading this post NOW!
Baseball is on hiatus till Wednesday (which also happens to be my birthday), so I feel it is ok for me to write about the exciting events that lead up to my acquiring of said ticket.
But as a side note, what a great birthday gift...Game 1 of the World Series! Yus!
This morning I read Todd's blog, only to note that he was getting tickets. He remarked that he had pre-registered, and it was at that point that I realized I was a tool, because I had failed to do so.
Never to Fret, my trusty old roomate Tapscott, the reliable and responsibly human being that she is, not only pre-registered, but bought the tickets for us. When I got to work I had a pleasant, somewhat incomprehensible email waiting for me, about how I had a ticket to the Spice Girls Reunion Show!
So although many will say that the Spice girls are crap, I loved them as an 11 year old, and as a result they have come to represent a two year chunk of my childhood. Not to mention how much Spice was played during tooth brushing, cleaning, and getting ready for the bar parties!
Needless to say I am pumped.
But now back to baseball.
Yesterday was not a happy one in terms of the outcome of the ALCS. As many had predicted, Boston getting the series back onto their home turf played hugely in their favour and they were able to take Game 6 (saying "take" is an understatement) and much to my dismay they also took game 7. To be honest I don't think of the score as 11-2. Cleveland just took a beating in the last three innings of the game.
And that sucked. A lot. Lofton was totally safe, but was called out by the second base ump, when Manny Ramirez played a ball of the wall. He was quick, but as the instant replay showed, not quick enough for Lofton. Fortunately for Boston there are no instant replays in baseball. Lofton also took a hit when he was told to put on the breaks as he rounded third. I think it was the right call from the third base coach, you don't want to take huge chances, but it's possible that the chance could have changed the outcome of the game.
The one night Dice-K needed to implode, he kept his composure!
The only good thing that comes out of Boston winning, is that at least I have strong sense of which team to root for in the World Series. I think I always would have gone for the Rockies, just because winning 21 of their last 22 is awesome, and I want to see them go all the way.
Not really a technical or argumentative piece on baseball this week, but more of a rant.
I am heading to L.A. next week and am going to miss the end of the series which sucks, so anyone who wants to post updates online should feel free. It will be 4pm when the games start in L.A., which means I will basically miss all of them.
At least there is TSN on American T.V., unlike in France when all you get is Monk in Dutch.
Keep Smiling,
Eve

Playoooofffffffffffffffs!
So I've been absent for a while, being in France and all.
Anyway, I am back and sitting on my couch, wrapped in my Jays blanket and watching what could be Cleveland's ticket to the World Series.
Today Joe Torre was offered a ticket for a new job by the Yankees organization. Although I would accept 5 million to pick shit off the street, Joe Tory has the right to some better standards. I think it was good that he turned down a pay cut. It's not like George Steinbrenner doesn't have the money to pay him.
Gorgeous DP just turned, 9th of the series for Cleveland.
Grey's Anatomy is also on, so I'm doing some flipping, but it is hard not to want to watch this game!
I would love a Rockies/Indians Series. Still think I would cheer for the Rockies, but I love how you can get attached to new teams in post.
Should be a low scoring game, and if the Indians' relievers perform like they have all series, Cleveland should have this in the bag. I want to see all of those power towels go flying!
So for the first time in at least four years, it actually feels like my birthday is coming up. October 24th is my birthday. I've been in Boston for the last three years, and at a different regatta in first year during my birthday. Far away from home and the great get-togethers I hosted all through high school.
This year, I'm having lots of people over at the apartment, kickball people, Thornhill and Queen's friends, and I am really excited. I know it is silly to be excited about birthdays but...
So Manny might have just scored a HR, but it was called as still in play. Terry Francona is giving the umps a run for their money with his mouth. Some bad baserunning from Ramirez if he really did think it was a homer.
Ok back to birthdays, I'm pumped. That is the bottom line. One night surrounded by great people and playing board games, and drinking and maybe playing a little midnight baseball if I'm lucky ;-)
I watched a great documentary that we are putting an offer in for acquiring at work. It's called "The First Saturday in May." The film profiles six horse trainers, looking to get their race horses to the Kentucky Derby, which is painted as the World Series of Horse Racing.
Anyway, as part of my job, I got to watch the film before and comment on it from a sales perspective. I haven't written about film since I left school, and it is good to know that I still haven't lost the skill to critique eloquently.
To be honest I don't even know if you can use those two words together.
Regardless, it was good to write, and be creative and critical. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I miss webposts. Filmies will understand what I am talking about.
We had to post once a week about the readings or the films or a mixture of both on a webforum. It was worth 10% of our final mark, but it forced you to do your readings, or at least stay awake during the film.
Bobby Kielty, who we traded Shannon Stewart for, is playing for Boston with a dramatic haircut. Although I feel as though the last time Boston was in T.O. his hair was short as well. It almost seems like he grew it so long, just for his picture.
Richard Gilmour is on Grey's Anatomy, as an intern...weird.
Ok back to baseball!!
Keep Smiling,
Eve

Another Garko Homerun and the Indians are up on the Yankees 12-3. Gorgeous!!!
So I'm heading to france tomorrow, best be the time that I make my playoff predictions
Blogger is being really stupid right now, so this should be a short post.
Anyway.
This is what I would like, so I'll predict that way, rather then what I think is realistic (which I know I will take criticism for, but a girl has got to dream.)
Ok, Cleavland will take the Yanks " Chicks did the long ball"
Angels will take Boston
Angels will take Cleavland
Rockies will take Phillies
Cubbies will take D-Backs
Rockies will take Cubbies
Angels will take Rockies
Again, I don't have too much invested in the national league. I would be happy with the Cubs beating the Rockies, and either of them beating the Angles.
But those are the predictions. we will see how I do!
P.S. the self-destructing Mets are not firing their manager.
If Brantley gets fired from the Jays, it is amazing that no one is taking the heat for what happened with the Mets.

The Season
Regardless of the sport, and in this case I am talking about baseball, there are winners and there are losers. There have to be both or else the game is no longer a competition.
In that respect, I believe that teams not only compete against other teams, but against themselves.
It is easy to sit on the sidelines and talk about how a team cannot win. Blue Jays fans are not the only ones to be disapointed season after season. The Atlanta Braves (minus this year) have won something like 9 straight division titles. How many times have they won a world series in those years. I could list many teams in baseball that don't make it to the playoffs, regardless of how hard the players actually play. You can only do you best, and sometimes the competition is better. Sometimes there are injuries, that are unavoidable. It doesn't help that in baseball there is a ridiculous discrepency between how much money some teams have to put into a roster than others. But I don't blame our lack of making the playoffs on that. It's way too old of an argument, especially since teams with smaller payrolls have made it past the Yankees to the world series time and time again.
But I don't think losing has anything to do with players not caring. I think it's a weak argument to make on any account in any sport. I would like to believe that all athletes play to win. As an athlete I know that desire runs deep. Even in the worst of situations, when you know there is no gold medal or world series ring, or division titles in reach, you still play your hardest, because that is why you are there. It becomes more than a competition against other teams, it becomes a competition with past seasons, and with testing how hard you can go.
It is the end of the season, and it isn't the first time that the Blue Jays have come out winning their last games when they aren't expected to. I like to think of it as the team playing to its competition's level. If you are playing against an easier team, or a team that you believe you can beat, sometimes you bring yourself down to that level and end up losing. Again, not a definitive statement, but an explanation about the hard balling that has been going down the last week. They are making Boston and the Yankees fight for the division title, which I think is admirable.
There are also many contributing factors to the losses this season. By no means will I blame any of that on pitching. There have been some games, most notably Roy Halladay's two last no decisions where he pitched 8 and 2/3rds and did not end up getting the win because the relief could not finish it off.
But other than that, considering out of our starting five this year, two actually played the season in the Majors in starting positions, one was sent to the bullpen, one was let go and one is indefinitely injured. Same thing with the three guys signed this season who were supposed to make a big impact on the club, Okha, Zambrano (who blew it and was picked up by Boston), and Thomson, who never made it passed AAA ball.
The young guys really stepped it up this season to fill in the spots, and totally changed our pitching around. McGowan and Marcum both stand now with over ten games won and winning records. They were not even expected to make it into the starting rotation. Although Marcum did not have a great September, (he went 5-1 in August and 0-1 in September with 3 no decisions) he was also battling a knee injury, which he is now having surgery for. Jeremy Accardo has 28 saves this season, and also was not expected to be our closer. But B.J. Ryan was injured before the regular season even started. Jesse Litch, who is my age, came up from the minors, and has pitched decently (7-9), not amazingly, but has made a better 5th guy than Towers.
Bottom line is, there is no way this pitching staff have not worked hard.
Especially considering the category the blue jays have suffered in is offense, not defense.
The run support behind all of these pitchers has been nothing but small for the season. There have been some odd great games, where we rack them up in the first inning, and continue to add on throughout, but overall, none of our big hitters have been performing where they were expected to. (which is just what happens in baseball)
If there is a testament to this it is the past series against the yankees, where the majority of the run support has come from the bottom of the order.
Again, the Jays really fought back against the Yankees, but none of the games were out of the park.
I am reading a great book now called "The Thinking Fans Guide to Baseball"
I put sports non-fiction on hold since 2004 when I went on a binge, but decided to pick this one up as my sports illustrated book really wasn't doing it for me. Anyway, back to the book, something it pointed out is that baseball is not just about skill, it's about the execution of that skill in various circumstances (as is with any sport, right Eve not revolutionary thinking)
But a lot of it is luck. It's how far the ball is pulled, its what kind of a slump a hitter is stuck in from getting into bad habits at the plate. And most of all for the Jays this season, the thing that you cannot predict about your players is how many of the them and how badly they will get injured.
Now I know that I have played the injury card before, and by no means am I blaming our performance this season on injuries, but I believe it is a large contributing factor to the moral of the team.
Injuries:
There will be 11 Toronto Blue Jays who have had surgery this season.
That is not including those who were put on the DL, without getting surgery.
Let's start with our starting lineup.
Zaun, Overbay, Johnson, Glaus, Wells. might as well mention Sal Fasano (handle bars, our back up back up is also injured, although he didn't play much this season)
Moving on to pitching
B.J Ryan, Marcum, Burnett, Chacin, Halladay, Downs, League.
I believe we fielded a strong team this season and it is unfortunate our offense did not perform to where I thought it would. I never once thought we were strong enough to surpass Boston and New York, but still a stronger third place team.
And at this point, as I have been for many many many years, I am satisfied with that third place. I am satisfied with the effort put out by the Jays this year. I think that rowing has helped me relate to that. No matter how hard you play and how much effort you put it, there is only going to be one winning team, and a lot of losing teams. I have had a season where I worked so hard, but our boat just never came together and we came off an OUA championship, not to medal at OUA's at all. Even thought in passed regattas we were the stronger team. Circumstance plays a role.
The organization has brought up many prospects, Rios, Wells, Thigpen, Lind, Hill, Adams, McGowan. Halladay just to name a few, who have or will make a big difference for this team in the future.
Contrary to what people think, Halladay is not going to leave the Jays. He wants to win a world series, but he wants to win it with his team.
That is my baseball rant for the day.
On a much less serious note. Mat and I spent the night playing catch at Ryerson, grocery shopping and I spent the rest of the night singing Kareoke (without Mat). It was great, I tried to pick the longest songs in order to adequately annoy him into singing with me, but I failed.
I got one "hold me closer Tony Danza" out of him, not even the right lyrics, but who's judging.
Less than two weeks till I'm off to France, which should be exciting and a real test of my job skills.
