    I just have no words....

    I've never felt like this after watching a sporting event before....not even when the Rockets won their ships.

    Soaking it in....

    Several years worth of joy and despair in watching that one.

    I can only imagine how Dodger fans feel (there are some legit ones). Losing 2 of these epic nerve rackers

    But f**k em, this city has been on the wrong end more than enough, we've earned these tasty W's

    Yeah it's like last year, with the 69 or however many years-deprived Indians going against the 100+ years-deprived Cubs. On one hand you feel for Cleveland/LA, but on the other hand...we deserve it more.

    Should someone also make a Joc Pederson appreciation thread for watching his double thinking it was a homerun but should have been a triple.

    Not sure if this is the greatest game. But this has to be the greatest world series ever, even after only 5 games. Every game was a nail biter all the way to the last inning.

    What's blowing my mind right now is this:

    We were unanimously in agreement that game 2 was the greatest game in Astros history.

    This game was SO MUCH BETTER.

    It's a great world series, but man there are some amazing ones - like 2016 in that game 7 thriller. The Toronto-Phillies series. The Braves - Twins in 91. The Red Sox - Mets in 86 - do you remember the ball going between the legs of Buckner? 1975 WS was pretty amazing as well - that Fisk shot was iconic.

    This is definitely one of the all time great WS games - up there in the top 10. And if the next two games are anything like last night - then ya, this just might top all those previous series.

    It's the greatest game I've ever been to without a question!!!

    I told my brother we'd win 3-2 before the game. I guess I was a little off.:D
