The World Series

To Hell with the Super Bowl. To Hell with that very fictional college football championship. This is the summit of sports. The peak. The. Highest. Point.

Baseball is the peak. The point all others strive for, vainly. The Houston Astros sit there.

This is baseball.

No city, locale, region, no vaguely defined area, wants a Super Bowl more than they want a World Series championship.

Houston now has it. J. J. Watt is a great man. But he did nothing compared to what the Houston Astros just did. The Texans can now rot.

Houston won a World Series.

This is life. This is good. Life begins again in late February, when the first pitch of the Grapefruit League is thrown. See ya then.
