BIG-GI-O!

I kinda just got put in my place. At the Astros game right now. Mike Lamb gets walked to load the bases with 2 outs in the bottom of the 6th in a tied game. The fans start going nuts because Craig Biggio, who just today announced this will be his last season after playing in Houston for 19 years, is up to bat. Of course when the PA guy announces his name, everyone stands up and starts going crazy because this whole city loves him. I, however, remained in my seat bitching about how stupid everyone is because he's not that good, and, overall, has been a hinderance to the team this year.

Very first pitch, he jacks a grand-slam to left field. The anti-cynicism gods kinda put me in my place on that one.
