Boy, has this season ever been a train wreck in a mineshaft collapse or what?*

*Little known fact: a song by the Folksmen called “Blood on the Coal,” which was in fact about a train wreck in a coal mine, was recorded but never included in that all-time mockumentary masterpiece, A Mighty Wind. Why I should think of that at this moment can only be attributed to a cerebroflatular episode, which is pretty common at my age, especially within a few days of attending games at Macondo Banana Massacre Field.
