JALLENWorld Series
One team is going to be disappointed after tonight, but unless there is a complete meltdown somehow, neither side need be ashamed.
It’s a terrific series.
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

P250UA5First pro sports that's been on in my house, outside of Formula1 or the Tour de France, in a long time.
Have thoroughly enjoyed it so far.
Edit: Also, GO STROS!

kingfish0072 great teams so it's anybody game tonight. I'm hoping the Astros will prevail. Very proud of their accomplishment even if they fall short...

TwistDefinitely looking forward to the game tonight, though that 3:15 alarm might suck tomorrow.
Side note, the Houston Chronicle had been asking around about interviewing a fan and apparently a few people mentioned my brother, so they ended up doing a phone interview with him and then went to his house and took some pics. I think it’s supposed to be printed next Wednesday if I recall correctly but it’s up on their site now. Pretty cool.

prepsheriffKind of conflicted...so I'm just looking for an exciting game. George Springer hits a 3 run homer in the top of the 9th. I like both clubs, outside of Puig, their all class acts
Airborne ! All the Way!!

Yeah but California, specifically Los Angeles is a disaster every day of the year, so this one is ours

tatortoddGo Astros!
This is been an incredible World Series. Perfect timing for MLB since the NFL is shooting themselves in the foot repeatedly.

bald1I've never been much of a MLB fan. That said I'm watching tonight.
Having flashbacks to my youth with both attending our local Triple A farm team games and in junior high being able to go into the auditorium during class breaks to catch the world series being broadcast there. And yeah, that was a l-o-n-g time ago.

StorminNorminI don’t watch sports much. I watch some football, but that is about it. I decided to watch game 7 tonight for some reason and so far it is good. Of course I am rooting for Houston.

Either team winning is fine with me.

It's early, and the pitching is thin. Stros can't back off now.

JALLENDarvish had that tendency with the Rangers, to get beat up the first inning or two, then settle in and be unhitable, or not.
