Goosebumps still. Best thing is remembering back to that time and recalling that Paulie's wife had just had their baby, and Paulie put it all in perspective by asking how many people in the world can say that hitting a grand slam in the World Series was the second best thing that happened to him that week.

I remember watching playoff teams, and seeing them get a base hit, and steal, and then hit the runner home. And I would think, my god, this is why the white sox will never win in the playoffs. They can't execute like these teams.

(not small ball)

 

But then we get into the playoffs and executed so much, so beautifully. Honest to God thinking about it makes me heavy, sports are so wonderful. We executed a flippin suicide squeeze in the playoffs to seal a victory (well, cap it off.)

 

But my god my anxiety was so high in the playoffs and we went 11-1 ahahaha. I remember skipping all my classes after the angels loss. And I had a german test at nine am after we won the world series, going in very drunk and hadn't slept all night. I assure you, that story is special because I never did stuff like that. (got an A)
