Gonna watch it?

If so, who ya rootin' for?

I have a place in my heart for the series
with Grampa and Dad
...and Dizzy Dean with Peewee Reese
and the Yankees
and the Dodgers

Diz brought it;
"Diz, you've watched this pitcher out there for four innings, and he's doing a great job. What would you say he's been throwing out there?"
"Well Pee Wee, I have been watching him for four innings and I believe that's a baseball he's throwin."

...anyway, I have another place in my heart for the Astros, as I changed out beer kegs in the dome and the hall for a season
 

Enjoyed when the Astros won the World Series two years ago ... hoping they can pull it off again.

Can't say that I know much about the Nationals, but hear they have a super pitcher on the mound tonight. ... will be watching

I used to live for the Game of the week every Saturday with Dizzy Dean and Pee Wee Reese.

The Dodgers were my team.

But these days I don't even know whose playing or care. Today's players are just a bunch of overpaid prima donnas puffed up on steroids or whatever performance enhancing substance is now the flavor of the week. .
 

GO, NATS!!!!!

When the Cubs were in it, I watched, a little. When the Sox were in it, I watched, a little. Other than that, I can't tell you who's playing, for the most part, and I have no idea who won it, over the years, except when a Chicago team did. Yeah, I'm pulling for the Astros, because of my Texas connections, but that's it. I won't be watching, except, maybe, the deciding game. In truth, watching baseball games puts me to sleep.
 
Pulling for the Stros. Great pitching battle to start. Should be a great series. For those that have not heard we have a furniture owner of three stores that bet 3.4 million on the Astros. He is our favorite guy "Mattress Mac". He does things like this offering free furniture if he wins. You buy $3,000 worth of furniture during a period before the series starts and if the Houston teams wins you get 100% of your money back!

From the 1950's onward,
Washington was first in defense of this country
First in honor, justice yada, yada yada
and last in the American League

Once Washington lost the Senators and eventually obtained another franchise, they too were supposed to finish last.
Now, there is a baseball team alleging it is from Washington, playing in the World Series.
Culture Shock, something is dreadfully wrong; the world has spun out of control, nothing is as it is supposed to be...
It can only be that these guys are from the state of Washington, not Washington D.C.-Right? Right.
