"Let
the right one in, Let the old dreams die, Let the
wrong ones go, They cannot, They cannot, They cannot
do what you want them to do". The 2009 season
has reached it's midpoint. The shadows of the darkness
begin to rise as the season enters the critical second

that go into a season begin to build with each passing
week as the postseason gets closer and closer. Working
through the layered ins and outs, ups and downs of
a season can be like putting together a Rubix Cube
or translating Morse Code. It is at times horrifying
yet there is also a gentle tenderness that comes with
the acceptance of a seasons failures and success,
as well as the need to continue - or even survive

move forward to the quest for eternal reward. The
first half only set the stage for deciding this. The
unknown journey ahead is one all teams teams take
together. While this is a shared and tender connection
of the leagues ten teams, it is rooted in a desperate
mutual need above all else. "Let the right
one slip in, Slip in, Slip in..."
