Steve Phillips wants you to turn that frown upside down

Since I was busy watching the Rutgers/USF game for most of the night, I decided to just keep watching ESPN to quickly get the ALCS highlights. But of course you can't have just the highlights. Steve Phillips must drop some knowledge on you.

Neil Everett asked Phillips about the Indians' body language - which is almost as stupid a question as Phillips' response was:

I think the players' body language reflected their manager Eric Wedge’s body language. I thought Eric Wedge was frowning too much. He was head down, shaking his head too much.

Did I miss something, or when did the Indians suddenly become 7-year-old kids? These guys are pros, not impressionable kids. Besides, every time I flipped over to the game some Indians player was making an error or striking out looking. I think Wedge had legitimate reason to be upset.

But who am I to disagree with ESPN "expert" Steve Phillips? Turn that frown upside down!

I'll be looking for a maniacally smiling Wedge in Game 6. That's sure to get the Indians a win. They might want to try swinging at pitches too.
