I'm working a meeting in Chicago, and I stayed up to watch Game 5 even though I was dead tired. I thought, "I'll just stay up to watch the 10th inning and will catch up tomorrow if they go longer."

Wilfrid Posted October 20, 2024 Author Share Posted October 20, 2024 So glad to be off duty until Friday. Will watch the second half of the WNBA tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollywood Posted October 21, 2024 Share Posted October 21, 2024 Go Dodgers! How about a 1981 redux? But these bullpen games make me nervous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted October 21, 2024 Author Share Posted October 21, 2024 That result worked for me. If we lose to the Dodgers it will be sad but see you next year. If we lost to the Mets we’d never, ever hear the end of it. Hope to win of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloviatrix Posted October 21, 2024 Share Posted October 21, 2024 As many of you know, I'm a die-hard Yankees fan. My brother, on the hand, bleeds Dodgers blue. This is going to be fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilfrid Posted October 22, 2024 Author Share Posted October 22, 2024 Well, Hinds isn't best of seven. I am only in trouble if the Yankees are on the brink of sweeping the Dodgers in game 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilfrid Posted October 22, 2024 Author Share Posted October 22, 2024 Of course, but I would like to be leaping around watching win 28. But if I am watching “Boom Boom Back,” well, what a problem to have. 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloviatrix Posted October 23, 2024 Share Posted October 23, 2024 In '96, we went to see the play Taking Sides. Show ended, we ran out and found a bar on 8th Avenue just in time to see Charlie Hayes catch the pop fly to end Game 6 and have the Yanks clinch their first World Series since '78. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted October 23, 2024 Author Share Posted October 23, 2024 My first living here would have been 1998, probably at home. The successive wins, at least two of them and maybe three, would have been in the company of Mr Manitoba in his eponymous bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilfrid Posted October 25, 2024 Author Share Posted October 25, 2024 Yes, it signals that the Dodgers will lose in five games. Not four because I am busy during game four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
