I live in KC and root for the Royals and the Chiefs. The thought of baseball makes some grown men in this town want to cry. Almost all of us want to cry when it gets around to playoff season for the NFL.

What do you expect from Vikings fans? They play in a dome, for Pete’s sake.

Did you see the Monday Night Football game last night? The Patriots were pounding the Vikings 31-7 and 80% of the fans left at the end of the 3rd quarter. 24 points is a tough comeback, but not unheard of in football. Minnesotans are the kings of fare weather.

Amen to that. Being a Mets, Knicks, and Jets fan for the past 15 years has taught me how to be patient.

The Phillies are actually my first choice. It comes from all those years living in Princeton.

Ah, yes.

I just now realized that at some point I’ve let slip that I live in southern Illinois.

That’s Cards’ territory, for those of you to whom the heart of the heart of the heartland is terra incognita.

I’m two hours from St. Louis, five and a half hours from Chicago. Southern Illinoisans’ allegiances are split, just as they were during the War between the States.

Anyway, Andrew . . . congratulations to you and to St. Louis. I wish it had been the White Sox, but hey . . . better the Cards than some teams I can think of.

That is the vernacular motto, as it were, of the city of Chicago and so shall remain.

I hope I didn’t conjure up a hex by speaking it.
