Anyone willing to bet on the NL side winning the WS?

Detroit looks unstoppable.

As any every non-New Yorker does, I root for any team that's playing against the Yankees. (My boys went home early this year.)
GAH!

Only north of the Raritan, as those counties are for all practical purposes "New York." (They are also Giants football fans, because of course.) Down here in Real Jersey it's Phillies (and Iggles and Flahrs) country.

Well, after their dispiritingly pathetic performance last night, the Giants once again have their backs in the customary position...

Pressed firmly against the wall...

It's do or die time tonight...

Oh, and as I promised Strop, just a reminder....

First pitch in the game will be at 11 AM Canberra time.....

Be there or be square... :)

That's sort like a New York version of "Debbie Does Dallas" is it? "Sue Does The Mets"?

Having redeemed themselves with 5-0 shut out performance on Friday, the Giants now meet the Cards in game six, due to start in a little over an hour....

I actually agree somewhat with rube about this....

As red hot as the Tigers have been, I think they're going to be very tough to up-end, no matter who wins the National League banner...

The one thing that either the Giants or the Cards will have going for them is that they'll be going up against a Tigers team that will have had a five day layoff to come down from the high of their performance against the Yankees....

If Jim had said "2½ innings" that just would have confused you even more. :lol:

It's supposed to rain.
Good luck to the Giants (not that I'm a fan, just don't care)

They're calling for some lingering showers in the area, but it shouldn't be the kind of sustained rain that would cancel the game.
