I sure as hell would. He settled in nicely after giving up those 2 runs

Agreed, but it looks like they're taking him out. I think it's too early.

**SkiBall** · 10-31-2017, 08:39 PM

Maybe next AB.

I agree that is a mistake, worst case he blows it. Then why not save your bullpen for tomorrow and have them fresh?

A used condom can go for a lot of money of money if the girl gets to the garbage can in time. That’s why I’ve heard a lot of athletes bring their own goodie bags home.

**SkiBall** · 10-31-2017, 08:49 PM

Well, ok then.

Bringing a glove to a game is just too much pressure. If you try bare-handing it at least you've got an excuse when you blow it!

Classic mistake of mistaking how far a ball is going to carry when it's coming right at you. Backspin's a bitch!

This has been a great WS. Personally I don't care which team wins, but I hope game 7 will be just as entertaining as the previous 6. From the phenomenal pitching in game 1 to the repeated comebacks in game 5 any baseball fan should have found something to like in this series.

You speak as a true fan of sport [thumbs up]

**zartagen** · 11-01-2017, 10:33 AM

I hope this game 7 lives up to my expectations of a game 7 like last year. No massive droughts on the line, but we've got juiced balls, so anything can happen.

unfortunately, think the Astros will get blown out today; kate upton's boyfriend and keuchel have been used up along with their best relievers; the dodgers have Kershaw and darvish and a much better pen. if they do, it was still a great year for the Astros.

Well, they have only been involved in three games seven, all while based in Brooklyn, NY.

Yeah, me either. As long as it's not the Dodgers

The LA Bustle would be a better name imo

Los Angeles Doyers doesn't do it for you?

Astros have never won a series, so that is kind of a drought.

Huh, just looked it up, established in 1962. I guess no one wants to talk about it because there isn't a curse to break.

Lots of teams haven’t won one. Astros, Rockies, Brewers, Padres, Rangers, Rays, mariners and Nationals/Expos

Established as the Colt .45s. Great fucking name. Team was jinxed forever when they changed to Asteroids.

Cheap malt liquor gets the axe, but Redskins lives on.
