The help is real friendly there too.

Back row, 4th from the left, please

Good choice

So tired this morning. I'm not going to make it through another game like that. How the hell do you top that one, 'cept with a blowout

Amazing game to watch. I'm happy for all you Cards fans especially for wiping that fuckin grin off of Nolan Ryans mug after Hamilton went yard. I'm glad Freese was the hero, he almost became the Bill Buckner of St. Louis after he flubbed that routine pop up. What a fantastic finish. I'm glad I didn't buckle to my wifes sexual advances during the commercial break before the 11th. NO RAIN CHECKS.

:o If I was rooting for the Cardinals, that would have been right there with greatest game I've ever witnessed. It's been one of the best World Series I've seen and I only wish that a team that I can really get behind was in it. Carp is gonna get rocked

OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!!!!!

::Wakes up behind the dumpster of a strip club called Chicas Locas in East St. Louis. My JaMarcus Russell jersey that I'd been wearing last night is torn to shreds, laying on the ground nearby. Wonder if this place serves breakfast.::

That game was amazing. I'm not going to claim "best ever" (though I could easily argue it), but I really don't think you can deny that it was the most dramatic WS game. Ever. Unreal. Down by two and down to the last strike, twice, in the fuckin' 9th and 10th innings, and the Cards tie it both times, then win it on a walk-off shot to center field in the 11th. Just writing that out gives me goosebumps! Congrats to you Cards fans - that was a special one.

GAME 7!!!

The story of the Cardinals fan who returned David Freese's homer:

"....what I did was shove it down my pants right away. I don't think anyone realized I had it."

I guess that's one way to make sure that no one steals the home run ball you just caught. Way to use your head, dude.

I really really hope he gives up like 7 runs in 4 innings and gets pulled early and is the reason STL loses

Man that game was fun to watch! Unfortunately, Buffalo Trace grabbed me by the boo-boo and I fell asleep in the middle of the 11th. :embarassed:

Yezzir!

I'm still speechless.

Best WS game ever? Maybe. Craziest fucking world series game ever? Hands down.

That was an emotional roller coaster like I've never been on before.

Heading downtown in 20 minutes to watch it at a bar across the street from the stadium.

::Just finished playing sloshball underneath the Gateway Arch. Freshened up in the Mississippi River. Currently walking around across from the ballpark, sippin from a bottle of Buffalo Trace, shouting "BH!"::

I am STOKED for GAME 7!!! :o

I thought Macallan was Scotch?

Game is pretty even so far but Carp has settled down since the first inning. Glad TEX got out of the bottom of the 4th. If Feldman falters, Ron will put in Wilson if he's smart. I wouldnt trust Ogandu after last night

Smacks forehead...

Scotch is whiskey from Scotland and by international trade regulations, only whiskey distilled in Scotland may be called Scotch and drop the 'E', hence BBill spelling of MacCallan as Whisky
