Those birds are amazing -beating tigers and all. My brother and sister-in-law were at tonight’s game. Twenty rows (and thirty feet towards left field) behind home plate.
By the way – Happy Birthday, Bethany! I should have posted that earlier!
Update:
I don’t really have much to say about the World Series games. Most of the Cardinal fans I talked to were, “Just hoping we don’t get swept.” So it was really a fun series (but then, the whole playoffs were good if you happened to be a Cardinals fan). And the Tigers have pitchers to blame, so they don’t have to feel bad about the whole mess.
But, and I say this with nothing but caring in my heart, Fox Sports Suck. Watching the broadcasts made me wish they (and by they I mean anyone who has ever in any way been associated with Fox Sports) were dead. They missed pitches, showed interviews on the screen while showing at-bats in little picture-in-picture windows, never showed enough of the field to get a sense of the game, jumped from head shot to head shot (Pitcher, Hitter, Manager, Pitcher, Catcher, Hitter, Owner, Other Manager, Then the pitch). I hate them.
From David Letterman’s top ten list: How to make the World Series more exciting. Number Two: Oh, I don’t know — shorten the game by 2 or 3 hours
From the comforts of my own home, I was right behind the mound for most of the game!
I’m a little disappointed that Lloyd has not already put a post up in celebration of those beloved Cardinals. You’re slackin’ Lloyd.
Yeah! What Beth said!
I’ve been too upset with Fox to post. I worried that I would post something too extreme. But now that I’ve calmed down, I ‘ll post an update.
