When Lance Berkman stepped up to the plate in the top of the ninth inning yesterday in San Francisco, I know I wasn't the only Astros’ fan thinking "home run."Berkman did just that, sending the first pitch he saw over the right field wall (and out of the stadium for that matter) and into McCovey Cove.  It gave the Astros an 8-7 lead and their biggest comeback since I can remember.With Berkman becoming as hot as the surface of the sun and with the addition of Miguel Tejada and Kazuo Matsui, the Astros' lineup has become downright predictable, not to mention scary.Astros' hitters have found a way to stay in each and every ballgame regardless of the early score and have come back late in 13 games thus far in the early 2008 season.

I happened across a VHS copy of the opening game of the 2003 season, which was also Bo Pelini’s debut as defensive coordinator at Nebraska.This game was interesting in a lot of ways and for a lot of reasons. Let him yell.  It's nothing more than a case of an excited kid.  And besides, he could've done faaaaar worse.Although this will pass, it's just a reminder of how stupid the talking heads of the sports world are.  But give them time, I suppose.  They'll come up with something even dumber to gripe about. . God forbid every athlete isn't as mundane as possible.Let the guy fist pump. Sabathia practically turns into a lunatic after a huge out, screaming several times on his way to the dugout.This got such attention that it required an interview with former Yankee great Goose Gossage in which the Goose basically said there was no room in the game for it and that if he had done it as a young kid, the veterans would've sat him down and insured he'd never do it again.Do what again? Act like a human being with emotions? Sorry Goose, but there isn't anything wrong with showing emotion. I'd like to thing that I have a pretty good general understanding of most things in sports.  I was absolutely stumped, however, when several articles sprung up and talking heads began spouting about Yankees reliever Joba Chamberlain."Are his celebrations too excessive? Is there a need for this in sports?" Those kinds of questions rang out.  I wondered what he had done.  Had he pointed and screamed at someone in defiance? Had he back-flipped his way off the field?Then I saw the clip of him striking out Indians outfielder David Delucci and immediately became perplexed.  Uh, did I miss something here?I saw nothing but raw emotion; a guy excited about picking up a big out.  Nothing wrong with a fist pump and a yell.  Hell, Cy Young winner C.C. For their part, they did a brilliant job. Yet many of us were left incredulous about the amount of drinking that was not only being allowed by the authorities, but apparently facilitated by them. By every big screen, there was a Carlsberg tanker, and in every area makeshift bars were placed to splash out as much lager as the Scots could handle. The entrances of the major supermarkets were crowded by discount crates of beer, and I imagine the staff of the local bars and pubs were about ready to kill themselves by the time the match actually started. Four large screens were set up around the city centre, and police were patrolling the streets from Tuesday afternoon on in order to try to keep the peace.

The police footage showing attacks on officers and violent crimes belies the stats, suggesting that a lot of guilty people simply got away with their actions. However, the media is blaming a minority of Rangers hooligans for what we might call this "mini-riot", and completely missing the possibility that at least part of the fault in fact lies closer to home. Many are praising Manchester city council in their treatment of the situation. As a hockey fan, the reason why people must set out to fight and destroy things after a sports game is completely beyond me. It’s indisputable that there were a number of violent idiots trying to cause trouble. That’s a given. But a mere 42 arrests out of 200,000, and only one stabbing, does not a Bedlam make. Don’t get me wrong: I abhor the mob mentality and inherent hooliganism of football more than anyone else. Trams were stopped, streets were shut off, and for most Mancunians, it was just easier to stay in. It was pretty obvious, then, that something was going to kick off after the match – the only question was whether it would be worse if the Rangers won or lost. However, the media seems to have done its usual job of sensationalising the situation to the extent that most of the truth has been lost in hyperbole. Sure, the city was rammed to bursting, and couldn’t cope on any level with the amount of people that turned up. As a non-football fan living in Manchester city centre, this week was always going to a be a tough one for me. Manchester United winning the league at the weekend was bad enough in terms of football fans going wild, but with the UEFA Cup final the evening before I had to sit an exam and a truckload of Glasgow Rangers fans on the way, I was apprehensive to say the least. It started on the Tuesday: on a train back into the city I was reminded of the upcoming match by seven Rangers fans having a "tin", or twelve in their seats and shouting at any girl who dared to stand up to get off. On arriving at the station, I could see that the place was already swarming with blue shirts, and groups of grinning Glaswegians were posing for photos in front of landmarks.
