Political minefields 2009 / Baseball play-offs 2009

G'day everyone.

In less than a month away to the November 2009 Election day is about to happen. Nobody doesn't like to hear these "NEW" political people that want to step up and say 'I'll bring change to our State or our Federal government..blah blah blah".

My response: *FLUSH*. Some political people actually do their jobs. Others are only interested in greed and power. It's not a wonderful thought. The worst is when these candidates do robocalling. Once these robocallers hit my home, I'll take their names and then call the people who run the "DO NOT CALL LIST". These people actually take the caller's name and numbers, then go after them with a FINE of DO NOT CALL LIST VIOLATIONS. I'm pretty well known already. But so far, the robocallers haven't hit my home yet as it's the last month for political influence. I predict by the week of Halloween, they'll hit in a horror type way. *scary music theme* Not looking forward to it.

Here in PA, Governor Ed Rundell has already proven himself to be a total lameduck governor already. By the time the state budget ever passes, he's already ruined the economic chances for everyone in PA. Does that give him the right to try for another term of Governor of PA? I'd say NO. While the blame game goes on, the state of PA is economically frozen. Now that's scary!

Meanwhile, we are about to soon hear who will be the next President of Gallaudet University. If you haven't done your survey yet, please do it soon. My poll due to close soon. Presently, Rosen and Hurwitz are in *DEAD HEAT* suddenly. WOW! Will the BOTS of GU vote that way too? We'll soon find out.

Baseball season play-offs: I'm very excited this year. The Philadelphia Phillies are back in the contention to DEFEND their World Series title. So here's who's who in the big BAT BATTLE:

American League:
East Division: NY Yankees have to fight off their nemesis, the dreaded Boston Red Sox (wild card)! Won't the damn Sox ever go away? See if the Boston Red Sox get tossed out of the first round.
Central Division: still up for grabs. Hopefully Detroit will defeat Minnesota today. Game is at 5:07pm. Expect ESPN to show it!
West Division: Los Angeles Angles is in good command.

National League:
East Division: Philadelphia Phillies. In total command of their destiny now!
Central Division: St. Louis Cardinals. Expect these poor birds to bleed again this year. Last year they were beaten soundly and lost all their feathers. Will their beak bats be sharp and feathers be bright? We'll soon see.
West Division: Another Los Angeles team (Dodgers) is also in the hunt.

So who's going for the World series? The battle of the play-offs will begin on Friday, October 16.
The World Series Battle will begin on October 28. Interesting to note there is a game on October 31: Halloween! That one has to be SCARY to watch!
So here's what I hope to see happen in the world series:
Dream #1: Phillies vs Yankees battle. A little I-95 series battle. It's a good match up.
Dream #2: Phillies vs Angels or Dodgers. A nice West Coast vs East Coast battle.

What if the Phillies get beat out of the race this year? A scary thought being October! But if that happens:
Dream #3: Yankees vs Angels or Dodgers. Still a nice West Coast vs East Coast battle!
Dream #4: The Baseball Quake battle! If LA Dodgers and LA Angels beat out everyone else in the play-off race here, I say if these two LA teams were to have an LA Baseball WORLD SERIES, expect the echos of the bats cracks to feel like a Quake hit! California would certainly go crazy of having one big World Series party in their state. I think it would be a shot in the arm for that to happen given to how everything has happened in California lately.

So there we are. Anything can happen in the next few weeks. Get ready and be excited!

Semper FI!

Update: Just found this out, the Phillies will begin their baseball battle tomorrow! It'll be Phillies vs Colorado Rockies series. First game is at 2:37pm on Wednesday, October 7 in Philadelphia! It will be on the TBS channel. GO PHILLIES!
