I am from the Philadelphia area. I have been championship starved my whole life. I remember teh ‘93 series and losing that. I remember the sixers losing to the lakers in ‘01. i remember the eagles in ‘05. But when i remember, i remember the heartache, the “it figures because we’re from philly” comments. The William Penn Curse is no more. No one cares about the 10,000 losses. they mean nothing. I still have not fully grasped the situation. But My Philadelphia Phillies, that i have cheered for my whole life, are the World Series Champions…it feels weird to say. No team currently is better than we are. and can’t be for another year. Seeing the players excited faces was more joy for me than i can ever remember. I’m beside myself with happiness. They finally did it. It’s the best feeling in the world and how could this year get better? oh yea, Penn State is 9-0 and rolling toward a national championship. And before i saw the phillies seal the deal, we had a great worship night at ACF, i shall blog about that next…
RIP…Philly’s championship drout…RIP
