It's good to stick with classic material.

Wow: I completely forgot about that.

Roy Halladay = first ballot HOF.

So far, so good.

By coincidence I'm actually going to be in the Philadelphia area next weekend when the Giants-Phillies series starts. I could use the opportunity to go root against the Giants on the road but so far it looks like that would cost me at $200, which is more than I'm willing to pay fro that privilege.

Giants and Ra . . .

cough, cough. Excuse me. Frog in my throat.

Giants and Rangers in the World Series. Giants win.

From bankruptcy and being sold off at auction to playing in the World Series all in the same year. That has to be some kind of record.

Looks like Nolan Ryan made a hell of a deal.

I wonder if Fox will jump off the Golden Gate Bridge in despair if it is Rangers-Giants. They could provide a bus so all 15 people watching the games outside of those cities can see.

Nonsense. This series is pure culture war. San Francisco's ragtag bunch of Gay Jews, poets and unemployed sous chefs like Cody Ross and Brian Wilson vs. a bunch of secessionist Rednecks like Vlad Guerrero.
