Repeat of the '68 World Series!

No :angry:

Unless you're just talking about the matchup. Remember the deal: Giants, Cards, Giants, Cards, Giants...

The Minsky Moment

Beltran was a machine.  The only thing he didn't do was pitch.  He's been my favorite player the last couple of years.

2-3 more healthy years (which would get him over 400 HRs), he will be a decent HOF candidate.  400 HRs isn't quite what it used to be, but Beltran isn't a roider and he does lots of other stuff well.
The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Goddamned playoff games make me so nervous.  HURRY UP & BE OVER WITH ALREADY

As helpful as he was in the NLDS, Jon Jay is doing his damnedest to help the Dodgers in the NLCS.

But I'll be honest, I watched that pickoff of Nick Punto 7 times.

Cards.  Win.  Went back & watched the Punto pickoff a couple more times.  Matt Holliday is born again hard, to quote Sgt. Hartmann. 

Cardinals need to win one out of the next three to put this pesky Dodgers team behind them & advance to the World Series.

Just saw some footage on MLBTV of a dejected Yasiel Puig.  Boo-fucking-hoo.  Hopefully after tomorrow afternoon you'll have all winter to practice flipping your bat.

I got a congratulatory text from my mom.  God love her.  Nobody else in my family ever displays such tact.

Also, Ron Darling sounds like James Woods.  That is all.

I am absolutely amazed the Red Sox are winning this series, the Tigers have had the best starting pitcher I've ever seen in my life.

Damn.  I was in the evening then went to sleep early.  Didn't see it.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017
