    Of course not. Otherwise, this would be the Globetrotters vs the Generals.

    Really? I want it to come down to the bottom of the ninth and a walk off grand slam...but that's just me...

    Dont know about Game 5 but the rest of them yeah.

    Nats play better when they have nothing to lose. We need to get to Strasburg early. Create some doubt and make them press.

    After watching the Astros play at less than their best at the plate all postseason, I don't see how anyone could not be confident. We're hitting fastballs near our season average. We're hitting breaking balls at a historic level. Nervous? Sure, it's healthy to be a bit nervous. But this series ends tonight.

    Video of him throwing. The delivery doesn't look great to me, but it's a big improvement from not being able to get dressed.

    The title is accurate and the add song is fitting. Makes me shed a tear every time.

    Going to try and guess on the 1st part.

    Mets, Marlins, Blue Jays, Royals?

    I feel you man, I think about my dad every game. Any my buddy's dad...our coaches for years. They're the reason I and my brother from other mother fell in love with baseball.

    I like to keep mine razor sharp. Sharp enough you can shave with it. Why, I've been known to circumcise a Nat.

    I'm more nervous about this game than I ever was before any exam I've ever taken in my life. What is wrong with me??

    Envy you lot, sorry I mean "you guys". Here in London I have to wake up after a couple of hour's sleep to watch. Can't wait, but very tired after all these night games. Even if I watch like the first hour and a half or so and go back to sleep there is so much adrenelin I keep waking up and checking the score anyhow. Dreaming it too and all confused on waking. Sure gonna miss it after but I don't know how you people keep your relationships going. If there were more afternoon games (your time) I'd be in trouble. Fortunately I usually only get a Sunday game that isn't in the middle of the night here. Astros addict! Got to do it today......….........….please.
