Someone wrote in with the subject line If Jays finish 17- 2 they make the playoffs 9 out of 10 times. The writer provided me with this link here (which is updated daily) stating the Blue Jays' case.
In any case, Toronto lost, and the 10-game streak is over. Boston also lost, despite loading the bases with none out in the last of the 14th in a game that lasted just over five hours.
The Jays are faced with the same scenario as the 2007 Phillies: now 7 games out with 17 left.

Teacher Runs into Bear!
Speaking of teachers, yup - once again there was this bullcrap moment in the staff room. I stepped in there to use the computer for five minutes, and there was Catherine in her "I'm-more-superior-than-Asians" rant, and she and Claxton then were criticizing a Korean for not knowing how to pronounce "Jorge." I was there for only five minutes and those people were talking that kind of nonsense. Wonder how much of that crap actually gets said when I'm not around.
"Showing Their Scales" and "The Hockey Farmer"
We are pleased to introduce the works of local B.C. authors KP Wee and Farhan Devji to you:
"Showing Their Scales" contains three tales of lies, lust, and deception. These are short novels which deal with betrayal and revenge, with three main male characters and how they end up hurting the women in their lives.
**Catch an episode of BlogTalkRadio here with KP's interview on his books, recorded Dec 29, 2008.**
"The Hockey Farmer" is a story about Logan Watt, who hails from Cochrane, Alberta, and has to decide whether to rehabilitate the legendary family farm or pursue an unlikely career in professional hockey. The story also shifts to Vancouver and contains numerous Vancouver Canucks references.
