Christmas has passed

Christmas has officially come & gone for most people in the USA now.

This season was pretty good for me, although I did miss seeing my family & spending time with them. I did enjoy visiting w/ my fiance's family and going to her Mom's house for Xmas. Still, there's nothing like being around your family during the holidays.

I wasn't able to get gifts for everyone that I wanted to, but that's how things go sometimes - up one year, down another :P

Looking forward to New Year's!!!

Albert Pujols is Gay... Get over it

Reports have come out recently that Albert Pujols is butt-hurt that the Phillies' Ryan Howard won this year's NL MVP. Are you kidding me?

Ryan Howard led the league in home runs and RBIs. Albert Pujols did not. Howard played on a team that traded superstar Bobby Abreu to the New York Yankees, leaving him as pretty much the only option for the team. Albert Pujols plays on a much better team - see Jim Edmonds, Scott Rolen and semi-surprising Chris Duncan.

Pujols argues that the MVP should come from a playoff team... Last I checked, the Phillies actually had a better record (85-77) than the St. Louis Cardinals (83-78) when the playoffs started; they just weren't leading their weak-ass division like the Cards.

The MVP is decided for the regular season and doesn't include the playoffs... there's a reason for that. So Pujols running his sorry-ass mouth over not winning is ridiculous. It doesn't matter if your team won the World Series or not, or how well you might've played in the playoffs. You didn't deserve it during the regular season, so you DON'T get the award!

Please... tell me how Pujols has any argument for the award.
