WS Game 2

A light mist, temperatures in the mid- to low-40s. Gotta like our chances at home. Bellhorn back in the two hole?

...and a triple to start things off.

Decent ballgame. Schilling is already a legend, and he says the right things. Stat that's sure to jinx it: Since Varitek's sac fly to score Roberts in the bottom of the 8th of Game 5 vs. the MFY, the Red Sox have been leading or tied. Not that I'm worried about this team being able to come back... Orwell/Kafka in '04

A tiny leather globe travelling at 60 mph, covered in water and spit (you know pitchers...), bouncing at you in 40deg. mist. Yeah, Little League flashback.

Tom Hanks, Jimmy Fallon and the cast from "The 70's Show." What?!? These are the people that get to see the possibly last ballgame at Fenway Park of the '04 season?

This has been bothering me a lot lately, with all the news of ticket prices, etc. Plus, the people that I know that got to go to games have all been connected to someone or wealthy. It's so lame that the Fox broadcasters can pan across the stands of a bunch of postseason posers and talk about Boston's fans. Then, after the game, they show some opportunistic vandals (that also most likely aren't really fans) and again talk about Boston's fans. I'm taking it a little personally. Tom Hanks probably didn't have trouble sleeping after game 3 against the MFY...

I won't claim to be a diehard fan. Sure, I watched Game 6 in 1986, but that was the only game I watched, but, it is ludicruous that the postseason for all major sports (well, maybe not hockey) has turned into an event for the glitterati and not the people who follow the teams all year. Heard that all of the arrests from last Wed. rioters were out-of-staters. (your subjects are showing)

You can say you're diehard, Terry. It's cool.

...and think it's gay, hence, my subject. Keep up, tgl. It's gayer, however, that in the absence of one the first N characters get put in there.

Posted by tgl on 2004-10-25 18:34:55 +0000
How about the first N-1 characters? There is an administration configuration to turn off comments at entry, but it still displays them with the nodes, should be a quick fix.

Yeah! Yeah! He and that stupid '70s show (I don't think it was actually them, it didn't even look like them-- they probably hawked their tickets for drugs) pissed me off so much! But the worst one-- did you watch Hanks' buddy's interview-- the one also in the movie with him about die-hard redsox fans? He was wearing a sweater, and a fancy new-york style white cotton shirt underneath. HEY NUTJOB! It's effing October, at night, in a drafty stadium in Boston. WHAT, ARE YOU NUTS? Go buy yourself a stupid sweatshirt! He obviously didn't do enough research for his movie... ________________________ Screw all y'all. I'm not stuffy! (stamps foot)

no subject.

...and the winner of the Best Fake Boston Accent During Game 2 of the World Series is... Jimmy Fallon!

Die Hard fans dont have the scratch that celebs and wealthy folks do. $$$$$$$ talks. Just to be an annoying asshole (devil's advocate I guess) Should we advocate redistributing their wealth so we can all go? ___________________________ If you can't respect that, your whole perspective is whack Maybe you'll love me when I fade to black
