If somebody told me a month ago that I could have:
- My favourite team of all time, the Cleveland Indians, advancing to the ALCS
- The hated Yankees eliminated from the postseason in the first round, once again
- A bonus paycheque of $147.35 because of it
I would have flipped out. Last night, though, that's exactly what happened!

Well.. almost. Technically the cash is just a refund, because that's how much I paid for four tickets to game 5. With the Tribe taking the series in 4 games, that game will no longer be played, so I should be getting my money back pretty soon. Of course, the downside is that I miss seeing probable Cy Young winner C.C. Sabathia in a playoff game at the Jake, but I'm glad because this lines up the Tribe's pair of aces for the ALCS against the BoSox. (Not to mention, having just ordered a new Thinkpad, I could frankly use the cash at the moment!)

Here's to the 2007 Indians -- the best Tribe team I've ever seen, who have a great shot at taking the World Series!
