    The sad thing about the World Series is that it means the baseball season will soon be over.
    What’s worse is this year’s two representatives will leave a bitter taste that the baseball season
    will end with one of these two teams as Champions of baseball 2018!

    One of the "experts" takes one this series is that Boston won 108 games, defeated two hundred plus season winning teams en-route to it's pennant. The 2001 New York Yankees lost the seasonseries to Seattle 3 games to six. Yankees won their division and defeated the 102 Game winners in Oakland, and the 116 Game winners of Seattle enroute to their pennent. Did they win the World Series heel no. I gusee the "experts" figure the fans are plain ignorant. The main thing that steams me about this series is that the Yankees did not make it because of Bumbling Boner, choking Sanchez, and Sonny Gray, lead culprits in failure. Since the '11 Season I have watched and rotted on the Yankees at every opportunity hoping for better than we've seen. Looks like Cashman & Boner will be back and watching the same thing expecting different results is insanity. I will be finding other things to do in '19 than swear at incompetence which seems to be the style of the franchise.

    I doubt I will get 2C this one.

    Dad passed away Sunday & Kim's in the ER/ICU Comatose after a series of Grand Mall seizures late last night...

    When it rains it turns into a disastrous blizzard bomb...
    I've been sitting in this hospital for 18 daze with a one day break in between...

    Holy smokes!! What terrible news for you Matt. Condolences for your dad and prayers for Kim to have a positive recovery. Lost my wife and dad within a few weeks a couple years ago so I know what your going through. Stay as positive as you can under the circumstances and just take one day at a time. Praying for good things to start coming your way. We're all rooting for you.

    Watching the post-game coverage, the Bums we're out managed by the rookie coach Cora, out played as a whole in every single aspect of the game. I cannot foresee the Blowsox losing this unless they put in their minor league roster.

    The amateur manager Cora has a good grasp on the game. He out managed our amateur manager baBoone.

    A mannequin could have out managed baBoone. BaBoone is nothing more than a ventriloquist dummy; outfoxed by a mannequin-(Cora), throughout the season...
