Is This a Reality?

Is this a Reality?

Did we just win?

Are we celebrating?

Are we really the World Series champions?

More from House of Houston

Yes!

What do I do now?

Do I celebrate or just sit in stunned silence?

Celebrate.

So I’m celebrating. I call friends to say I love you. My family and I were crying. My brother and I were crying. We won a championship, right? I go nuts on social media. I don’t rub it to Ranger fans or Astro haters because I consider this moment a blessing. There is no question this is the best playoff run in sports history. To beat three elite storied franchises to win the championship is unreal. I don’t think it will happen again.

As I’m celebrating, one question enters my mind. Will we win more and possibly become a dynasty?

Next: THREE reasons why it was the World Series or bust

I don’t know the answer to the question and I don’t care. We may never win another championship in our lives. We may win more. But even so, nothing will be better than in 2017.

So by the time I get to understand what we did, I’ll let you know in my next entry.
