Moments #11: Exploring The Red House


One day, not too long ago, I was walking around the neighborhood with my camera when I came across a deserted house.

I decided that, since I had my camera with me, I might as well explore.

The window were broken and the backdoor was unlocked.

As I walked through the house, it seemed to be deserted but it soon became obvious that someone else had recently been there.  The doors were all open.  The ceiling fans in the kitchen were still spinning.  There was a chair, like the one pictured above, in almost every room of the house.  I started to feel uncomfortable so I decided to leave the house.  As I stepped back through the backyard, I noticed a pile of bricks lying in the backyard.

As I walked away from the house, I noticed one last thing — the remains of a bicycle in the front yard.

Eventually, someone bought and refurnished the house, fixing the broken windows and, I assume, the broken door as well.  I still wonder who owned that bicycle.

The Phillies Now Lead The NLCS


With their 6-1 victory over the Diamondbacks tonight, the Phillies now lead the NLCS.  Both the Phillies and the Astros are one victory away from playing each other in the World Series for the second year in a row.

We all know that we, as baseball fans, deserve better than that.

Rangers and the Diamondbacks can still turn this thing around.  All it will take is one victory for each to re-tie the series and force a Game 7.  Rangers and Diamondbacks, we’re depending on you!

Go Rangers!

Congratulations to the Diamondbacks!


A big congratulations to the Arizona Diamondbacks for beating the Phillies 5-6 and tying up the NLCS!

I really hope the Diamondbacks can maintain their momentum and win their conference because, just in case the Asstros do end up in the World Series, it’ll be at least easier for me to cheer against them if they’re playing against Arizona than if they’re playing against Philadelphia.  If the Philadelphia and Houston end up in the World Series, I’ll have to cheer for Houston by default.  If it’s Houston and Arizona, I’ve got some breathing room.

Of course, my main hope is that the Rangers will get it together and win the next two games of the ALCS!

Go Rangers!

The Astros Now Lead The ALCS


This game was painful!

The Rangers went into the ninth leading the Astros but then Jose Altuvie hit his 26th season post-season career home run and the score went from being 2-4, Rangers to 5-4, Astros.  The Rangers always seem to struggle at home but the good news is that, lately, Houston has been struggling at their home too.  The ALCS is returning to Houston so let’s hope the Rangers can turn things around.  The Astros are one game away from returning to the World Series and, if they’re joined by the Phillies, it’ll be another years with two most hated teams in the league fighting it out in the World Series.

Normally, I’d cheer for Astros in that case but I might not this year.  Not after Martin Maldonado deliberately hit Adolis Garcia with a pitch.  Way to keep up classy, Houston.  It would take a lot to make me support a team from Philadelphia but the Astros are really determined to help me do it.

Go Rangers!

The ALCS Is Tied Up


That was brutal.  Tonight, the Astros won Game 4 of the ALCS by a score of 10-3.  The ALCS is all tied up now.  You all know I’m a Rangers fans so tonight’s game was hard to watch.  But if I’m going to brag whenever the Rangers win, I guess I have to be willing to acknowledge when they get beat, too.

I’ll always love my team no matter what happens but I hope tomorrow’s game is a better one for the Rangers.

Go Rangers!

Congratulations to the Diamondbacks On Winning Game Three of NLCS!


Congratulations and a big thank you to Arizona Diamondbacks for winning Game 3 of NLCS and bringing some suspense to the MLB playoffs!  Based on the past two games in the NLCS, I thought the Phillies were going to sweep the series but, with their 1-2 victory over the Phillies, the Diamondbacks have proven that they’re still in this!

Now, let’s how things go in Arlington.
