2. I could list it alphabetically or chronologically...
(I was only able to watch bits and pieces, but I've been told...ad nauseum...)

What it boils down to is this, though...

Two years ago I swore up and down that 2008 was going to be The Year.

I shoulda known better.

:banghead:


Well....that, plus walks'll kill you every time (game 1), sloppy defense (game 2) and couldn't execute (game 3). Plus, the Dodgers that they faced this series wasn't the same team that they played in the first half of the season. This is the team I was afraid of.

Next year.

:D

4. Thanks, darlin'
All the way home I kept thinking about how you must feel.

You're one classy dame and one of the best baseball fans I've ever had the pleasure to know.

:hug: :loveya:

11. I can't blame you!
Edited on Sun Oct-05-08 06:36 PM by deadparrot
Your guys are playing great. Never held out much hope for the Cards this year, but despite all that, there's something about baseball season that's inherently comforting. I've actually moved to Cooperstown, though, so there's a definite baseball vibe in the air year-round. :D

Looking forward to an entertaining NLCS...these last few, dwindling weeks of baseball are going to have to get me through three months of wall-to-wall football coverage. :bounce:

13. Cooperstown!
Most excellent! Heebus, if any single word says "baseball," that's it. Not to mention, from what I've seen of the area it's quite picturesque.

The Cardinals were a huge help to us. As early as mid-August, I looked at the schedules for us and Arizona, and I saw their four games in St. Louis Sept. 22-25. I thought, "That's gonna be the difference." Sure enough, you beat 'em three out of four, and in fact it was your win over 'em in the last game of the series that clinched it for us. :D

They pretty much came from fuckin' nowhere this year and are heading to the NLCS! :toast:

Now if the Angels can pick themselves up and dust themselves off, we might actually get a shot a freeway series!
