Caveat: that will be hard to do if you have to do a shot every time Tim McCarver goes on a rant about outfielders playing too deep

Ace, what kind of pussy beta male are you, that doesn't like baseball?

EST sucks for sports. And getting old I spose. My weekday bedtime is around 10.
I missed last night.
Since it's Fri I might be able to watch the whole game tonight. Probably will be a 10 to 1 blowout. Nothing beats a game 7 though. Even if it is two teams I don't care about.
I can't quite decide who I want to win which is unusual this late in a series. I normally root for the National League, for various reasons, the major one being that my team, the Rockies are in it, but I really like Nolan Ryan and what he has done for the Rangers.

Put that in the bank. He detests the entire state of Texas with the possible exception of Austin, and Rangers club president Nolan Ryan is a longtime conservative Republican

That's yet another example of how one "aw shit" can negate a thousand+ "atta boys!".
Posted by: Kratos (Ghost of Sparta) at October 28, 2011 03:50 PM (UR5vq)
Yes, but then again Tony La Russa and Albert Pujols are Tea Partiers who spoke at Glenn Beck's 9/12 rally.
So it goes both ways. At least it's not the Yankees or Sox playing in the WS.

I don't see a Chicago fan rooting for a St Louis team under any circumstances, not even a stumbling clusterf*ck of a miserable fan.

I stay up far later than that, usually. 2:30-3:00AM is my usual bedtime, 7:30-8:00 my usual time to rise. And then during the weekends I sleep like a log.

Obama isn't watching the game. Obama knows less about baseball than an unborn Zebra with an underdeveloped brain.
Yeah, I don't think his "single mom" had many "catches" with him as a youngster. He throws like a damn girl. If he wasn't ruining our country, I'd feel sorry for him.
Posted by: Delta Smelt at October 28, 2011 03:52 PM (8XHAK)
Remember when Obama, that die hard White Sox fan, said they played at Kaminskey Park.
Dumbass fake. Like it's not bad enough that he's a poseur as President. But to be a poseur of a sports fan? Sheesh. The American people have Zero standards.

What is Nolan's record in World Series games again?
If they do that, we'll just send Bob Gibson out there to the mound.
Posted by: Dave in St. Louis at October 28, 2011 03:54 PM (lG61b)
No they aren't. La Russa is fairly left leaning
I used to think that, but I could swear he made some statements that left me in disbelief.....about a year ago maybe...
Right leaning statements....
I could be wrong.

I am kinda like Jeff B, even though those damn birds handed my Braves their asses. Actually, my Braves handed their own asses over, but at any rate, I am rooting for Texas based on them being Seriesless thus far, and also on the fact that their players are better looking than the St. Louis players. But mainly because of them being better looking.
The way Ian Kinsler wiggles his bidness as he's batting is trophy worthy in and of itself.

I have Hank Aaron's autograph via my dad from an exhibition game played in Denver circa 1960.
Also have Eddie Matthews from a card show before he died. I got Don Larson's as well. Him being famous for his perfect game in 56. Without it, no one would know who he is.
(Don't tell any babes I'm talking about autograghs and card shows either. Thanks.)

In the days before technology somewhat reliable, often the radio broadcast would cut out, leaving Reagan (who was thousands of miles from the actual game) with no knowledge of what was going on at the game.
He learned to improvise, colorfully, adding his own commentary, many foul balls and strategy occurring before the feed came back up and he could resume "truthful" commentary.

Muscle relaxers (flexeril) and NSAIDS (Aleve, Motrin).
Also hot bath or moist towel under heating pad.
Laying on your back on a bed and doing bicycle peddling motion up above you, will help after you loosen up.
Posted by: ontherocks at October 28, 2011 04:17 PM (HBqDo)
True. The Cardinals are capable of putting a lot of runs on the board. This could be another high scoring game.

It wasn't Beck's 9/12 event it was his 8/28 event. Both LaRussa and Pujols looked very respectable. I didn't suspect a thing that they were lefties. It actually seemed to me that Pujols was quite religious.
The event wasn't political so there would have been no reason for them to even bring it up, it was more spiritual. I know, I was there. It kinda creeped me out a little being around all these true believers, I mean really really true believers, not just regular ones.
All the old Army dudes stayed way in the back and had their coolers full of hooch, I wish I was with them instead of up front with my nonalcoholic diet Pepsi.

Jeff B. and others: I apologize for being stupidly obnoxious last night. 10 people were laid off at work this past week. My job is safe (for now) but I've been watching people cry at their desk all week. So, after a few beers, I flew off the frickin' handle last night during that game, but I don't think that the game was really what was upsetting me.
That said, GO RANGERS!

You need to keep the Advil up on a regular schedule (better with muscle relaxer combo) to reduce the inflammation on the Sciatic nerve.
The "bicycle" is better after initial relief. You'll need to support your lower back with your hands while bracing forearms and elbows on the bed.

It was a good time though, I met up with 5 people from Texas at my hotel. They were just hanging around in the lobby and we started chatting. Stuck with them all weekend, it was fun. I just never saw that many overly religious people in one place at one time though. We were on the left side of the podium right in front of the screen next to the reflecting pool. We were lucky and got a cab that took us right there about 6:00 a.m.
Did those ex-military folks have a cooler. The ones I spoke with afterwards were pretty shittered and they were having with an Iraqi vet with only one leg.

They were older Ex military types. I talked to some overtly religious types, but mostly what I confronted was the unrealistic, Ron Paul types who, even at that point were all gung ho to impeach OWaffle.
Hearts were in the right place, but had no understanding of politics and how it works. Also had no idea of how the demographics and political winds had blown leftward since their formative years.
I tried to gently explain otherwise, but met with quite a bit of resistance.
Kind of like Jeff B at a....well on every thread here.

Posted by: MissTammy at October 28, 2011 08:33 PM (iBll1)
I've only had it on one side, usually from twisting or reaching improperly (or too quickly) without bending a knee.
Or from playing hoop.

I want the Rangers to win because I want to see if the team gets the customary invite to the White House, since SOAMF doesn't like Texas it might be funny to see how many of the players and owners don't show up.
Rick Perry should beat Obama to the punch and invite them to the Governor's mansion.

Be careful of heat and exercise- often can make it worse; different for everyone. For me, pillow inder my stomach and cold packs for a couple of days, with pain killers [Rx stuff] and Baclofen [muscle relaxant, different than flexaril], along with rest.
Hope it gets better for you soon, with whatever works for you.

Stan's the man, but in my 48 years a hitter like Albert only comes along once in a generation. Gibson was great and would be great still, but he had the benefit of a higher pitcher mound back in the day.

Fidrych was working on a truck and got his clothes tangles in a spinning shaft, suffocating him.
Spinning shaft sounds more like a tractor power take off shaft.
I've screwed up a couple trivia items tonight. It was a truck.

So many baseball players have the weirdest damn names. The first time I read the name Albert Pujols I thought he was Bulgarian or something like that. Prince Fielder. Elvis Andrus. Ngyer Morgan. Rollie Fingers. Starlin Castro. Robin Yount. (Robin had to learn how to handle a bat, or he wouldn't have survived 3rd grade.) Honus Wagner. Yogi Berra. Those are only the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

So the Cards have sense enough to toss the pitcher as soon as his weakness shows. That's how you win games.

_______________________________________________
Yeah, unlike Washington and Ron Roenicke (Brewer manager) LaRussa isn't worried about hurting the delicate feelings of his pitchers. They start to screw up, they're pulled. They'll get over the hit to their self-esteem when they get fitted for their WS rings.

I really do like the Cardinals but I'd love to see the Rangers win. They never have before, they are owned by Nolan Ryan - one of my favorite all time players - and they're a favorite of George Bush.
So I guess whichever way this goes is fine by me. I expect Motte to come in and give it up in the 9th, Rangers win.

Okay, there are far worse things than a CArd win. Coulda been the damn Yankees. I like the CArds. They had a great run, and by God, they have just outplayed the Rangers.
Arthur Rhodes gets a ring, that' way cool.
And did I mention at least it ain't the Yankees?

Well, Cards fans, I can't say your boys didn't earn the win. It kills this Brewers fan to say this, but congrats to you. At least I can say my boys lost to the best.
(And it is always nice to have a Yankees-free WS. The only time in my life I ever rooted for the Yankees was in 2001 - and they lost that year. I started crying when that eagle flew across the stadium, because, damnit, a month after 9/11, they were playing baseball at Yankee stadium. The WS seemed like one big fu to the terrorists that year.
