I'm so happy Justin Bieber opened my World Series experience today
It's "FAMILY NIGHT ON FOX"!!!!
Then I am even happier that I tuned in late.
Sigh.

Political ads.
Beiber.
Chalupa.

Nolan Ryan....Again.
mlb.tv is so annoing, they cant get anything right

audio not in sync with video sucks.

Is there a worse ad slogan than "Grab some Buds"?

I’m not grabbing any of my buds.

I am!
Reply fail?
No, he's just thinking
Jeff asked who was up for baseball.

I am!

Does Colby Lewis need glasses?
That's his intense stare.

Scaring the hitters out of swinging.

It's not working
Worked on Pat.

But, it’s entirely possible Pat is just an idiot.

Wow, everyone but Pat Burrell thought that was gone.
I know I was surprised when it came down in the park, and even more surprised when it came down in Pat Burrel's glove.
My immediate thought was 'gone'

My second thought was ‘hard double off the wall’

Pat Burrell’s immediate thought was ‘I can’t drop another one’

So an 'early family start' is 8ish on the east coast, huh?
6:30
Normal anti-family start time is 8ish.
I have trouble with that whole counting thing.

so, 7ish— because goodness knows you wouldn’at actually want frist pitch when you say the game starts

Fuck no you wouldn't.
6:57 thank you very much.

That was the first pitch time they gave. Fuck you FOX, fuck you.

Wouldn't this type of thing make more sense for a weekday?

Like when people actually have to sleep?

No because then you would be starting while west coast fans are still at work.

They really want all the west coast fans to be able to watch this year with these too non eastern friendly teams.

But thats suggesting FOX cares about the west coast.

I’d rather just assume stupidity.

Nelson Cruz was scared by Francouer's crazy eye.
How is that a bad baserunning play?

He would be out at home by a mile

Throw a strike you idiot.
Not really his game.

He walks a NL worst 4.47 per 9 innings and he is 12th worse among starters with .98 HR per 9. This is pretty much what you get with Sanchez.

Goddamnit, you asshole.
I don't think Texas will miss Smoak. At all.
Texas can choke on it.
*Choak
Joak!
Ms goin for broak

we got Smoak
it’s a joak that it was so easy,
no more Sexson, no more Spiezy
Just a Lopey and trade piezies
Have a laugh
share a glass of sizzurp
watch Jack Z bring all the hizzurt
on our rivals when Cliff Lee returns to class

Does Justin Smoak get a World Series ring if Texas wins?
It's okay, this just sets up for an eventual Giants rally and soul-crushing meltdown for the Rangers.

All is going to according to plan…..

This shit better work.
They got them where they want them.
I don't want the series to end in four games.
I'm with you.

More baseball, please.

My ideal scenario is Texas with close wins tonight and tomorrow, Giants take game 5, Texas game 6, Giants game 7.
I like TX, SF, TX, TX,SF win Game 7 at home.
In reality I don't think it'll go more than 5 games.
Only reason I want Texas to win today
If it does, the Rangers lose at home.
How soul-crushing.
That'll teach them to get there before us.
I want it to end in 4 games so fucking hard.
Aubrey Huff may be a traitor.
SHUT UP KEN ROSENTHAL.

I don’t care about your “stories.”

Apparently the home crowd isn't used to this whole "World Series" thing

@stopthewave While Cruz was on 3rd with 1 out I was told to “sit down asshole” and “sit your fucking ass down.”

@stopthewave I’m in sec 318, crowd still mostly dead even after Mitch’s homerun.

Would our crowd be much different?
They figured it out in '95 :)

Actually during my one experience of the White Sox playoff series, there was much standing and yelling.

Yeah, I think the real fans would come out if our team were good
It was fun.
It was too young to truly appreciate them then

I can’t wait for a day like that to come again

Good.

I had a fear of Robert getting escorted off the premises for running around too much and becoming a distraction.

Funny story about Robert almost getting kicked out of a stadium at a playoff game for standing!
Funny story about Robert almost getting kicked out of a stadium at a playoff game for standing!
WS at Safeco would probably be even worse.

“Can you not cheer so loudly in my ear please?”

Can anyone figure out what shape this strikezone is?
isosceles triangle.
So, the more strikes called, the better the game...
Oh, how I wish it were November 3rd.
I hope they play those awesome political ads even after the election.
Dang, they've got good food.
Did they just blow both calls on that DP?
Looks like his foot hit the bag first, but it's close.
The one at second was barely an out

At first, it was incredibly close

That double play was equal parts ugly (technical) and gorgeous (results)
Am I to understand from that ad that it takes a lot of testosterone to wield a loptop?
I remember my first weighed like 20 lbs. Or felt like it. And I'm a girly man.
The more commercials I see for Due Date

The more of that movie seems to be spoiled

What are they chanting?
Texas-------Rangers
WALKER TEXAS RANGER
Most players would trade a bat for a hit?

No kidding.

You'd think that with the general hatred for these commentators, the league/networks would listen and do something about it.

You know, fan experience and all.

CFR...
He is a god among men.
Wow.

Ross. … Wow.

Now Ron Washington can manage the lead in to oblivion with his bullpen!

MORE RUNS GIANTS
Well I'll be_Martha has a nice voice
But she doesn't have any playoff experience
She now has more playoff experience than Felix.
Favorite Martha Plimpton movie line...to River Phoenix in the Mosquito Coast. "I think about you when I go to the bathroom."
Yeah but she's not a very good singer.

Really not. I mean, I do choral stuff and she was very mediocre. Many of the women who I sing with in choir would do much better.

I just… Can’t they get GOOD musicians? I mean it’s not like it would be hard to get an opera or other PROFESSIONAL choral singer to do one of these. They would VOLUNTEER for it.

I think it's because of a little thing called "ratings."
I know. :(

It still makes me sad.

They've had opera people do it. Martha just wasn't the worst version I'd ever heard.
Although now that I think of it, Martha Plimpton isn't usually known for drawing a huge crowd.

Puzzler.

Hey Fox, I want my sound back
OK this has been happening to me for like 5 minutes now.

Is anybody else experiencing this?

No, I have Buck and Timmy in all their glory- mainly because my douchey local espn station switched to Eastern Washington football in the 2nd---booo
My picture was screwy for a minute or two, but it's all good now.
Aaand I'm back.
TORRESS!!!!!!!!!!
Ron Wotus has an awesome last name.
Any time he flies into Seattle he has police escorts and a false limosines.
Wotus sounds like a system file of some type.

“My server log in won’t work and keeps giving me an error message”
“Did you turn your Wotus off?”

Lucky fuckin' catch.
Blow his house down!
Did I just see Birds of War?
Let's see sumo Cody mojo
What the

some. more. Cody. mojo.

I have rookie envy.
The guy with the Pedro Martinez hair is pretty good.
Alright

so we got ourselves a series.

And I'm okay with it
Sweet, no sweep.
Fuck this result.

Go away, fucking cokehead Rangers.

GO GIANTS!!!!
