See a Grown Man Cry

For this I agreed to watch my cousin’s store for three and a half days?
Incidentally, the store is Eye Caliber. It’s on Tejon, one door south of Jose Muldoon’s. C’mon in – I’m offering a 10% discount to VodkaPundit readers, good Wednesday, Thursday, and until 2pm Friday.
After that, you’re on your own. I have to close up shop early Friday to get to Denver to prep for all the holiday festivities.
You have Bolle?
is the comic book store still there? how about recycle records?
i miss it all!!!
What better to renew The Curse of the Red Sox than to follow their miraculous comeback vs. the Yanks with a Choke for the Ages in the World Series?
Go Cards!
Don’t give up hope and tell the Cards to get their tales from between their legs. 2 reasons to think the Cards are still going to win, they’re discussing in Boston when to hold the parade, on ESPN it said the Red Sox are going to have the champagne on ice. They never learn.
From last night’s game – My 7 year old son knows to run home from third – And did that ball that Manny hit ever land?
Not much Bolle, John, but some. They just aren’t the brand they used to be.
Now keep your fingers crossed for the Cards tonight.
Go Red Sox! Heh.
Sorry, guys, but own preference would have been Cubs/Red Sox; but I’ve had respect for Boston since the ’75 series, possibly one of the best ever.
So far, the Sox have played marginally better ball and have worked for every win. I liked Pedro’s comment last night after the game, something to the effect of “We’re not relaxing (the way the Yankees did.) We’re shutting our mouths, and playing ball, and hoping for the outcome we want.”
Everyone else may have the champagne on ice for the Sox, but the organization itself seems to have its head screwed on a bit straighter. This series is by no means over, and the Cards are not going to just curl up and die.
This is the most exciting series since the DBacks beat the Yanks in 2001. I had the pleasure of attending Game 7 and routing against the Yanks, and it is a memory I will treasure until the day I die.
Thank God for October baseball and the respite it provides from politics.
I walked into the store this afternoon to pay my respects to Steve, and at first I was pretty certain which country I was in. But seeing him with a beard turned me into a disoriented Oriental!! The sound of his voice remained the same, and he said he would shave it off in a few days, but the sight is seared – seared! – into my memory.
Joan: “This series is by no means over, and the Cards are not going to just curl up and die.”
Sadly, that’s EXACTLY what my Cards did.
Congrats, Sox Nation.
Now I have to tell my boss I’m taking tomorrow off to go to the parade. Life as we know it will never be the same.
