Ok, so I'm hanging out on the Birdhouse message board (it's a rare occurrence, but it's the playoffs, so we all do our bit...) and one of the users (one Mr. West123, to be exact) had one of the funniest quotes I've ever seen:

Fascinating observation by Thom Brennaman. "The Astros have never been to the World Series. In fact, there has never been a World Series game played in the largest state in this country."

That's true, Thom. There has never been a World Series game in Alaska.

Pure Gold.

Go Cards! Down but not out.

Of course if they lose, you'd best not e-mail me for a couple days, I'm likely to be cranky...
