Checking in with Halos Heaven, we appreciate the "enjoy the moment" nature of the celebration.

This might be the only time, this might be your last time; regardless, this is it. There is only now. Your team is in it. You have earned this, but it is all you have earned. There are no guarantees. A generation or more of your family can live and die under the same roof, going to games of a team that will never surpass second place, never know what it is like to live after a season has died. Your memory of this moment may be all they have, all that ever gives them hope.

Right now, all we know is that the Yankees really, really don't want to play Anaheim again.

Final Thoughts After Qualifying For The Post-Season [Halos Heaven]

Yep, the Indians had the good sense to clinch their title on the last home game of the regular season, but they've still got plenty to play for: Home field advantage in the AL (and therefore the World Series; thanks La Russa) is still quite up in the proverbial air.

It's the first postseason for the Indians since 2001, when Philly's own Charlie Manuel was the manager. They lost in five games to that great Mariners team. For the best breakdown of how the Indians got to this point, Let's Go Tribe! has an outstanding roster breakdown.

Here's hoping the Indians don't fall prey to this year's Ohio curse: The runners up keep coming from Ohio, from both major college teams, to the Cavaliers. Would Indians fans be happy with just a division title? Is the season a failure if this is all they get? No time to worry about that now: There's bubbly everywhere!
