WAS THAT THE PATS VS. THE COWBOYS????
August 13, 2008
WHAT A GAME THAT WAS! I CANNOT RECALL ANOTHER GAME THAT WAS LIKE THAT ONE LAST NIGHT! I MEAN, TITO SAID IT RIGHT WHEN IN POST-GAME INTERVIEWS HE SAID "AT SOME POINT I FELT LIKE WE SHOULDA WENT FOR A FIELD GOAL".........THE SCORE LOOKED TO BE THIS UPCOMING SEASONS SUPERBOWL FINAL......PATS 19 COWBOYS 16.......REMEMBER I SAID THAT BY THE WAY!
AAAAAAAAAAAANYWAYS, WHAT A FIRST INNING! BIG PAPI COMING THROUGH LIKE WE ALWAYS HOPE HE DOES! "TWO" 3-RUN HOMERS! AND ANYONE WHO SAYS "YEAH, BUT THAT SECOND ONE SHOULDA BEEN A DOUBLE", WHO CARES WHAT SHOULDA BEEN! WE HAVE BEEN CHEATED IN THE PAST DUE TO NO REPLAY, SO THIS MAKES UP FOR IT! AS FOR PEDS AND DREW.......THATS WHAT U CALL SETTING THE TABLE FOR PAPI TO CLEAR! YOUK WITH TWO K'S IN THAT TUMULTUOUS FIRST INNING (WORD OF THE DAY TOILET PAPER, HAHAHAHA), WAS MERELY SAVING HIS BAT FOR LATER!
WHILE THE BATTING ORDER WENT ROUND AND ROUND, CHARLIE ZINK SAT IN THE DUGOUT AMAZED, WATCHING THE ACTION! PROBABLY THINKING TO HIMSELF "NOW THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL RUN SUPPORT! HE TOSSED OKAY BUT GOT STUNG IN THE 5TH INNING TO WHICH HE HAD TO TAKE A SEAT FOR THE REMAINDER AND WATCH THE ACTION WHILE THE BULLPEN TRIED TO SAVE WHAT HAD EEN STARTED! BUT WITH ONE OF THE BEST OFFENSES IN THE LEAGUE, TEXAS BATTLED THEIR WAY BACK FROM BEING DOWN BY A TOUCHDOWN AND FIELD GOAL!
THINGS LOOKED A LITTLE SHAKY THERE FOR A BIT, WITH TEXAS CREEPING UP, WHEN YOUKS FIRST BLAST CAME! PUTTING A LITTLE MORE DISTANCE BETWEEN US AND THEM!
AND AFTER SNAPPING HIS 29 GAME HIT STREAK THE NIGHT BEFORE, LITTLE DUSTY PEDS CAME OUT WITH A VENGENCE TONIGHT! GOING 5 FOR 6 WITH 4 SINGLES AND 1 DOUBLE! WHAT A NIGHT FOR MY CHOICE FOR AL MVP THIS SEASON! I DONT CARE WHAT HAPPENS WITH SHIFTS IN THE BATTING ORDER, THIS KID BETTER STAY AT TE NUMBAH TWO SPOT FOR THE REMAINDER OF HIS CAREER.....I THINK HE'S PROVEN HE OWNS IT!
WITH THE GAME ON THE LINE, AND A 10 RUN LEAD SQUANDERED, WHERE ELSE DO WE LOOK FOR CLUTCH THAN AT THE HANDS OF THE LARGE FATHER.....AS HE STEPPED UP TO THE PLATE, IN THE 8TH, WITH US ACTUALLY TIED AT 16 IN THE GAME, IF U CAN BELIEVE THAT, HE SENT A SHOT OUT THAT AT FIRST WAS LOOKED AT AS HIS 3RD HOMER OF THE NIGHT.......WHICH LATER RECIEVED THE CORRECT CALL OF FAN INTERFERANCE, AND WAS GRANTED A DOUBLE! UP STEPS THE ONE I CALL "DAVES TWIN" (YOU KNOW WHO I MEAN)
.........AND AS THE WORD CLUTCH STILL LINGERED ON MY TONGUE........."BAMMMMM"......TO THE FURTHEST PART OF THE FENS, THE 420 MARK, AND TO THE UPPER DECK MIND YOU, YOUK HITS A HOMER AND LOOKED EVERY BIT EXCITED AS ALL THE FANS IN THE STANDS AND ME HERE AT HOME! SCREAMING AND HIGH FIVING LIKE A SCHOOLKID WHO JUST GOT AN A+ IN HIS WORST SUBJECT! TO SAY CLUTCH IS BACK IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT! TALK ABOUT A GAME WINNING FIELD GOAL.........KEVIN YOUKILIS WAS THE ADAM VINITIERI IN THIS SUPERBOWL ON THE DIAMOND! IN COMES PAPS TO PUT THE SEAL ON THE NIGHT........AND WE WIN THE FIRST GAME OF WHAT IS SHOWING TO BE A GREAT SERIES WITH ONE OF THE BEST OFFENSES IN THE AL! WHAT A GAME! AND THE GOOD GUYS TAKE THE FIRST PUNCH! GOOD JOB SOX!
