And afterall, its not if you win or lose, its about how you play in the Series! Just kidding...the game is a pleasure to watch and play regardless of who wins.

Oh wow, you could sit in my section......we are a bunch of has beens, I've concluded, like I said always waiting on next year. You see, I was even watching the little leaguers.....I just love the game. I have 41 games taped so far (that I have not seen) to get me thru the winter.

Yup- you and Hunter are my kind of baseball people!! Damn, I gotta get some taping equipment! That is a great idea for winter viewing! I follow some college football and have a spot in my heart for the Steelers (mainly because of memories of my Dad and watching them with him), but, baseball is my game.

Thinking as we go through September- the Dbacks might very well be a major force in the play-offs as a team with a lot of spirited scrappiness! Might be some good coverage of their history. LOL, if my guys are not in, I do temd to go for underdogs. Yet, for the AL, I do have another soft spot for the Red Sox.

OK, I am getting excited about October- and play-off ball. No matter the teams that get in, it is always some damn fine baseball being played. It will be fun to have fans here that might have their team in it all- will make my play-off and WS experience more fun.

Wow, what a cool idea...taping for winter! I love it.

A respectable .293! They are playing Boston right now. Losing though. :(

I should be in bed, but instead I am torturing myself by watching the Astros continue to beat us......

The Pirates have a late afternoon rain out make up game tomorrow (one game) My darling lover said she'd leave early if I wanted to go to the game. We are both off Friday.......

Initially I said No, and she came right back and said No pouting all evening because we aren't at the game. (lol) I'm so predictable.

Good job on that batting average!

Got to go to the Tigers-Royals game last night in Detroit with some friends who scored some fabulous tickets (friend knows someone who works high up in the Royals). Tigers won in 10 innings! It was such a good game. Our pitcher had a no-hitter going into the 7th inning.

Given the crap I have been going through at work lately, I was glad to have this little escape.
