Looks like someone's getting a little ahead of himself. I might respect them if they actually get there.

Yeah, there is a lot of knocking on wood going on around here today.   It's making me nervous....
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

It's raining right now, though not too hard. I really hope we get this game in.

I was hoping to hear from you soon.   You realize by posting that, you took away the bad mojo I created by commenting too early after game 5?    :smiley:

I'm not saying anything about that. I'm just buying my friend a drink and getting fuckin' stoked for our Game 7. That is all.  :lipsrsealed:

:grin:   I'll be watching the MNF game ( GO BEARS ) and switching over to BB game.  Maybe I'll dvr the debate just to see if they get in a fist fight or something.

Wow, sports can be painful.   Just another example of why music is better.    I leave sporting events unhappy 50% of the time.   I'm rarely unhappy after a show.

Congrats Bbill and Ms Y!    Beat those Tigers!

Thanks Dave.  :smiley: That was a really good series, and I was really happy to see our starting pitching step up for those last 3 games. I'm nervous about the Tigers, they're a really good team, but so were the Cardinals and Reds. I'm very curious to see what we can do against Verlander. 

Man, I've never seen rain so hard during a baseball game. I thought the umpire was going to call it after Lopez got pulled with 2 outs in the ninth. SO glad he didn't.

I was really hoping for just ONE ground ball to see what would happen.

I think it got to the point where they wouldn't have been able to field and throw. I was pretty happy to see it end when and how it did.

Going back to your first point...music is better, I agree with you on that in general. But, the best that sports can offer (especially live) are greater than the best that music can offer, imo.

thanks for the congratulations, BH.  you're good sportsman.  :beer:

i was nervous about our team facing verlander last night.  we may have caught a break catching him on an off night. although, the giants hit him pretty hard in the all-star game, too.

what a huge night for sandoval!  and timmy!
and even though he didn't get a hit last night i love seeing huff in the batter's box.  i'm pulling for that guy. :thumbsup:

and Zito!! 

I just like seeing almost every national sportswriter get it wrong with how Verlander was going to bring the Giants momentum to a screeching halt.
