Requiem for a postseason 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago Karma: 3
Monday morning after the season ending loss I had posted as my facebook status that I was listening to Mozart Requiem. I didn't mention the Red Sox, but a friend picked up on it.
Here is what he said, starting with the Latin of the Requiem & translation:

Confutatis maledictis
Flammis acribus addictis,
Voca me cum benedictis.

[translation]
When the accursed have been confounded
And given over to the bitter flames,
Call me with the blessed.


By which Herr Mozart means you'll feel better when the undoubtedly accursed NY Yankees are cast down into bitter flames by the avenging "angelo" we fondly remember as St Manny of Ramirez.

I think he's close, but I think it needs a bit of polishing.
I see where he's going with the St. Manny comment, but it's not quite on ...

Ideas?

I hate to say it but a Yankees/Dodgers World Series kind of interests me. I know that it will result in a terrible evil: Yankees or Manny celebrating but I just don't see myself caring too much about an Angels/Phils series. That being said, if the Yanks were to get swept in the ALCS I would be very happy.

If that does come to pass, then I hope that Joe Torre takes down his former club

From a purely egocentric - I mean - RSNcentric point of view, if the Angels beat the Yankees then we were taken down by the club that would eventually win the Pennant, and it's not so bad.
