How can you not just love this ball team??!! While the Cowboys bring nothing but frustration, the Rangers bring nothing but pure pleasure! It is good, clean fun! They celebrate by spraying each other with ginger ale (out of respect to Josh Hamilton). They are not egotistic. They are REAL. And they are going to the World Series AGAIN!
I watched every second of every inning from the comfort of my living room and cheered and took pictures like I was there.
It was hard to turn it off and go to bed because it just felt good. Nolan Ryan is just plain gold. He has taken a franchise and made them believe.
Nellie Cruz...the series MVP with a heart of gold and braces on his teeth. No steroids in his medicine cabinet. He is a product of hard work.
And there are just not enough adjectives to describe Ron Washington. He makes his players believe, and he gives people like Michael Young a chance because he believes in them.
That belief in each other and the system brought them a long way. There are not quite there yet but IF they make it all the way they will have earned the right to be called World Champs and I hope they douse each other with gallons of ginger ale once again. Makes you proud to be a Texan.
