World Series Open Thread: Game 1
In case anyone cares to offer up their own favorite to win it all; I believe I'll be rooting for the Rays, though I'll probably be pretty sick of the bagillion references to our very own worst-to-first 1991 Atlanta Braves -- the year 50-percent of Atlantans figured out we had a baseball team.
Also, feel free to discuss the game, slam Tim McCarver, or talk about how nauseated you feel by the repeated ultra-close-ups of each manager.

Oh man
I was all excited about watching the game after reading this until I got to Tim “friggin” McCarvers name. Now I don’t know if I’ll even turn it on … maybe, but I’ll definitely mute it.
I know some people like him, but he’s just about as bad as Joe “back in my playin days” Morgan. OK – maybe that’s not realistic but honestly I think I’d rather trim my grandmothers toe nails all night than listen to either call a game!
what's the over/under...
of minutes before McCarver mentions the Yankees and/or Jeter?
Backstreet Boys butchering The Anthem, off to a great start
Baseball This Morning on XM had people calling in making offbeat predictions (not who wins), and one guy called in and said that there would be 50 shots per game of stars in the stands from new FOX sitcoms doomed to fail. That was a pretty good one.
Can we please...
just stop with that awful music they play going to EVERY commercial??? I understand it’s the world series but I don’t understand how a song that sounds almost indentical to the Jurassic Park theme makes it more magical.
Top of 9th...
maybe the best pitched game by both teams than I have seen in years. I’m surprised 5 runs have been scored so far.
I just can't
Get excited about this series. Yawn…
Time to dig out Season 5 DVD’s of “24” which I haven’t watched yet. But I voted for the Phillies.
Interesting...
I’ve been watching Season Five of “24” this week, too. Damn fine season. Can’t say the same about Season Six.
