ACTOBER

The World who has not heard the name of BASEBALL, may find it difficult to digest the word, "Actober" instead of "October". However, for baseball fans, There is just one fall classic, there is just one Post-Season, There is just one "Actober".

Disputes are settled now in American League of baseball. Stage is set. That one "October" is going to begin from tomorrow. Red Sox hung on for this time and won the American League EAST after 14 years. When this season was HOT in the month of May, I had a visitor at my apartment, a Comcast Engineer ( an African American) Yankee Fan. Although he was kind of hopeful that Yankee may bounce back, I predicted that this time, Red Sox will hang on to the lead.

There are many classical examples when Bronx Zoo has kind of took over in the month of September from Red Sox, but 2007 wasnt the year. Red Sox and Yankees, both were prolific run machine offensive teams who are known for thier big plays. However, the difference between this Red Sox unit with the past units, is that This team actually has a very good pitching staff.

Diasuke Matsuzaka era is just the beginning. Josh beckett is one of the best pitcher in the league. (I think, Sabathia from Cleveland Indians is going to win the Cy Young Award). Curt Schilling has 2 World Series Winning Experience with him. Tim Wakefield, Tavarez, Lefty Lester are good follow up pitchers. Bull Pen is strong with Gagne, Okhijama and Papelbon. It is going to be awesome October for Red Sox fans and like Dane Cooks says "2004 was then and 2007 is now".

I dont think so that, Angels would be easy to go over with However, I would be kind of hoping that, Yankees would defeat Indians and Red Sox will meet them in the Finale. Would that happen or not, Only "Actober" can tell.

National League was kind of messed up going on to last day of season. It still amazes me, that Baseball players play 180 games in the season, yet, on the very last day, there are 4 teams still fighting for the spot in the Post Season. This shows that what difference does 1 Win makes. Amazing.

Although, my person fav. would be Chicago Cubs but Boy o Boy, Phillies are in terrific form. I dont think so any team from West would make such a impact but Why do we watch baseball in October, because it is Actober..which is another name of "Surprises".

Actober is also the month which gives America the most beautyful weather. One of the example would be the pic shown above. FALL Colors makes it classical to drive, Makes it classical for any outing. The most romantic windy, little chilly weather.

Oh Yes, And Actober also carries, "My Birthday" !!!
