Hey--baseball fans, who is going to win the World Series?
Personally, I don't really care as neither team is the one I root for. I root for the Chicago Cubs--but we know how their seasons always turn out.
So, I will root for the Cardinals.

Cardinals!!!!!!!
Tutu, I couldn't figure out why you would be out numbered. Then if finally dawned on me the northeast, where we know 95% of lyme cases are.
Admitted area, the rest of the country are Lyme Loonies?

Probably true, map! Yes, we have tons of Noreasters here. Posted by merrygirl (Member # 12041) on :
RED SOX
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
Now WHY would you say that, merrygirl?? Posted by lpkayak (Member # 5230) on :
Is merrygirl just teasing? No one can tell where shes from.
I dont really care one bit about baseball...but it would not be safe for me to say im not a red sox fan...given where i live and all
I had 2 kids here in boston land...then move to ny to teach for 20 plus yrs..and had 2kids there...so 2 kids are red sox fans and 2 are yankee fans. We dont watch many games together
So really...im the only red sox fan on here...really?
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
She lives in Boston.
I can't imagine that you and merrygirl are the only ones, unless everyone is a Yankee fan.
I'm really an Astros fan, but that is getting me NOWHERE this year. They've lost most of their fan base because they changed to the American League and also because they were AWFUL this year! Rock bottom! (new and stupid owner)

Tutu, so funny you should say that about Astros. In the crossworld puzzle yesterday, it was AL west and I had the As_ _ _ filled in.
I kept racking my brain, no they're in the National league? So I tried to rework part that had the a s. I just gave up.
Sorry I missed the end of that game last night. I turned off TV top of the 8th, thinking SL had it wrapped up.

That's funny, map!!
I bet you could find that final play on You Tube or a sports website today. It was a very weird ending!! At least there was no real question about the call that was made.

like i said above i really dont care much about baseball...on the other hand i really get upset about ducks and idsa and the national news shows
so tonight i hear that sox fans are all mad about that call...when all day i have heard over and over-even from kids...that it was wierd but if you read the rule book it was right
why do these news guys want to stir up trouble where there isnt any? cuz there sure is plenty of real trouble around to talk about
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
I guess they like to stir it up for their own ratings. If you watch the video above, you will see that it was the right call.
As for the news... they like to keep us distracted from the REAL ISSUES.

Hey!!!! I thought there was to be no POLITICAL discussions here!!!! Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
Baseball is political?? Who knew? Posted by Kudzuslipper (Member # 31915) on :
Ha ha ha. Politics, religion, dog food and baseball! Sure to be heated!
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
We'll talk about football then!
Posted by Told you I was sick (Member # 35068) on :
So, are you suggesting the Pats, then?
Still...getting back to baseball...Red Sox fan or not, no hitter is more clutch than Ortiz!
Posted by map1131 (Member # 2022) on :
YEAP I love a power hitter and David Ortiz is the man. MVP of the World Series.
Pam
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
Ortiz is something else!! I agree!
Told You... Well, I WOULD be bragging on my Texans, but they aren't having a very good year thus far!
Posted by lpkayak (Member # 5230) on :
im watching my first game. kinda impt and all. i went out and bought lots of bad, bad food...
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
I'm so glad you are watching it... looks like a good one for the Sox.
Posted by map1131 (Member # 2022) on :
It didn't even dawn on me until last night? What a glorious victory for a city that was so heartbroken just a few months ago.
TBTG!!!!!!!!!! It makes Boston Strong's heart glow!
