Carlos Santana with his kid on piano and an alternative sounding rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. Very nice.

so best National Anthem so far is between this one and that milfy country singer in KC the other night. I'm gonna have to re-watch hers again...

i'm going to vomit, i'm so tense right now

the royals are doing so great.

riiight...ya, game 7's are fun when your team isn't in it. When they are, its just nerve-racking.

gtfo of here with this god bless america shit

#fedora

ohmygod we need this. we need to rally.

Yost is so bad.

I put it on during the top of the 7th.

I can get into it when it's this desperate.

Is bumgarner's arm gonna fall off

PEREZ SHOULD NOT BE HITTING

And that's what happens, KC kinda gave that one away.

Bum is god.

Ok, Joe buck.

That Perez at bat was one of the worst you'll ever see. Swinging at 5 straight nearly head-high pitches.

Josh Willngham on the bench not batting is insane, D.

MadBum just finished off one the greatest performances in postseason history of any sport, not just baseball.




How exactly did KC kinda give this away? What happened to Blanco in the 9th and then to have Perez kick it once more after that, is almost giving it away. KC had no blunder of that magnitude.


Bochy is God. Just sealed the Hall of Fame for him with this coaching job. In many ways, this team had no business getting this far.

Hell, can't even deny this.

Bunting with your best hitter. Sliding into first (that should be a fineable offense). Perez batting there.

Bochy is really amazing, 1st ballot probably.

It was a great series, pretty well played. Wish KC won but happy for Peavy.

I already miss baseball.

Game 7 was an instant classic. It had the two things that were looming over the series the whole time; the Royals big 3 in relief and Bumgarner. When KC won game 2, I was trying to figure out how the G's were going to get 2 other wins besides Madbum's starts. I couldn't see it and sure enough, Affeldt gets it on MB's back.

The coaching staff patterned out this very scenario after last nights game. If Hudson got in early trouble, they'd bring in Affeldt to clean up and ride Madbum for as long as they could. It worked, but only because they got to 3 before KC did and then the two looming aspects of the series squared off. great stuff.

thank god this is over

Hah, a FakeRayFosse tweet (a bitter A's fan across the bay):


"Technically its 3 World Series in 57 years"

C'mon Trots, even you can appreciate some of the numbers here:

...

Bumgarner, 36 WS innings 0.25 ERA Best ever for min. 25 innings.


5 innings in game 7 (on 2 days rest). Longest save in WS history.

...

Pablo Sandoval, 26 postseason hits. MLB record.

Hunter Pence and the Panda, 12 WS hits. 1 shy of the record.

Home teams were 23-3 in gm's 6 and 7 heading into these last two.

last WS game 7 won by the road team: Pirates, 1979.

nba league pass is free until nov 4 so i watched several basketball games instead

how'd the Warriors do?


or was that last night...


there's gonna be a million people in the city on Halloween for the parade, as if the city isn't geeked/fucked up enough. I went to the 2010 parade. that's plenty thanks.

i think i missed the end of that one, but i was watching it. sacto was losing it by the 3Q

They all were doing that shit.

Winning two titles is a dynasty? Who the fuck made this shit?

i wanted to come up with a smart ass response to that but i just can't believe how fucking dumb you are

Thx for the tip. I'm going to the T-Wolves/Bulls Sat night. Cheapest Bulls game I'll ever get to

You probably heard already, but he did that on his own

Yeah that was nauseating.
