when he said in an interview that one of his goals was to become a well-read person. I don’t think I have ever heard another professional athlete express that sentiment. And he comes across as personable and genuine — an overall likable guy.

Huh, I’d never checked out any of his entries. Street as waterboy.

And a class act, too. It’s really a pleasure rooting for guys like him.

It was tough to watch, but I wouldn’t have had it any other way. In the end, it came down to our best vs. their best. This time, their best won. Tip your cap to Howard. I hope beyond all hope that they re-sign Huston Street. Next year, our best will beat their best.

You know, I feel for the guy and everything, but, “I wouldn’t want it any other way”? I read his blog and it seems as though he had made sense of this whole ordeal through some philosophical, but to say you wouldn’t want it any other way is just not right.

Hearin him hurt like that makes me feel bad too, but also increases my respect for him. He already gave up that homer to Magglio Ordonez in the 06 ALCS….now this. Hopefully he can grow from this experience and keep takin’ names next year!

he was rushed back in late Sept due to Morales implosions in SD, SF. He was not the same when he came back with less velocity and less bite on the slider. As a result he worked only outside and got burned.

He’ll be in top-notch form next year. I have no worries about that whatsoever.

because sometimes we feel like we are the only ones that hurt or care like we do and that the players are just money hungry and don’t care that much about the outcome or other people. This just shows that many of these guys still do love the game, want to win more than anything, and have strong character. I hope to have Huston back, and I think the 2010 Rox are going to be WS Champs!
