    Not Watching World Series, But a Question ..

    All my friends who are on the bandwagon in Texas are bitching about a blown call. How bad was it?

    Pretty bad. Ump calls the dude safe before he even touched the bag. But the blown call was a tag on the runner going to first that was tagged like 4 feet b4 the bag and ump called him safe.

    Ah okay. Nice. They are all blaming the whole game right now on that one call. Not that their pitchers couldn't get any outs after that apparently. Only 5-0 in the 4th though. Still hilarious though because that is all anyone will talk about if they lose and I will LMAO. Cannot wait for the Series to be over. Every friend I have only talks Rangers and I could give a rat's teste.

    Yeah that will be the blame but they botched a throw to the plate and with 2 outs that goes to first and inning over.

    I'd just as soon see them take the lead or tie it and then blow it late to see how they spin that. I don't even bother talking to most of them until the playoffs are over because I'm tired of everything they have to say.

    I don't even bother watching MLB really now that the Phils broke my heart. Black Ruth let me down. I'm not over it.

    Howard should not be compared to Ruth. Not even close, Ruth greatest ever.

    Don't think that missed call means much when you're getting pounded and making errors right and left. Will be a fun night of comment reading for me. You can always tell when the Rangers lose in the postseason, comments on Facebook/Twitter go from millions into cricket mode.
