...in Beirut (or Beer Pong, what have you) that is. Here at the University of Oregon, a bunch of students started a Beirut league at the beginning of the school year. There were 30 teams and each team chose a name of a MLB team. Me and my partner chose the Giants of course.
For the regular season, we had to play each team in our division 4 times, and everyone else in the league twice, plus playing the AL West teams twice each as well. Total, that is 46 games for the regular season. After winning the NL West by 6 games and finishing with the best record in the NL, we played in Cardinals out of the Central because the Dodgers won the Wild Card. We beat the Cardinals in a sweep and the Dodgers beat the Mets in 4. In the other league, the Red Sox beat the A's in the first round in 4 and the Yankees beat the Twins in 5.
Tonight, we played the Championship Series' for both leagues. The Yankees beat the Red Sox in 5 and the Giants (My buddy and I) swept the Dodgers.
On friday, we will be playing the World Series against the Yankees. These two guys are actually from New York and me and my buddy are actually from the Bay Area. So, we will both be repping really hard.
Anyways, I'm drunk and going to bed, I have class in 6 hours.
Go Giants!
