Anti-climactic.

That’s how I’d describe Game Seven of the 2017 World Series. Still, though, one of the greatest series of all time.

To be honest I’m not sure I could have taken much more drama, following the five-day candy bender that was Halloween. As I wrote last week, Halloween on a Tuesday seemed like such a good idea at the time… but with parties starting Friday and continuing all weekend I was limping through the final stages on Tuesday night.

The past two days, of course, have been what we call the Halloween Hangover. Oh, those candies still look so good. Then next week… the jawbreakers, the gobstoppers, and finally the bubble gum.

And then it is Christmas.

And it all begins again.
