Yesterday was an absolutely great day in the sports world, at least in our household! FINALLY have the last few years have brought last second heartache, Notre Dame defeated Michigan. GO IRISH!!! I still have some concerns about the success of the rest of the season as I've not been totally confident in their play yet, but at this point it doesn't matter. WE BEAT MICHIGAN!!!!
Also, and really, more importantly, the REDS CLINCHED THE CENTRAL DIVISION!!! We were all trying to get things done yesterday while the game was on, and as JC pointed out, every TV in the house was tuned in to the game. When the top of the ninth arrived and the Reds were up 6-0, I called everyone to the living room so we could watch it together. When they clinched two years ago I was the only one still awake, and I wanted to make sure the kids didn't miss it this time. As I watched the Reds turn the game ending, division clinching double play, I honestly had tears in my eyes. There were two reasons for this...1) we really have a shot at something big in the postseason this year and 2) my entire family was sitting together when it happened. These days, that is such a rarity.
