Yup, that's what the SOX are going to think after being buried by the Rockies! Wee hee!

KC must be trying to get online to get tickets......

Nah, just reading (and ignoring) the ramblings of a highly disallusioned dreamer. Actually, Eng, I'd much rather be comfortably ensconsed at home in HD on the big screen - much more comfortale. Might be a little late to the game tonight anyway. We're attending a charity event for Central Massachusetts Veterans that includes lots of food, wine and a wine auction. I'll let you know tomorrow if I found anything worth bidding on. GO SOX!!!

I attended a wine dinner in Raleigh last night. At my table was a couple that moved to North Carolina from Massachusetts. The husband is a doctor that I have met before at wine dinners. His brother has had various distributorships in Boston area (I believe the father had Anheuser-Busch but sold the distributorship after some years) and has a box at Fenway. The doctor asked if he could have a couple seats in the box for the World Series and the brother said "Certainly--for $5,000." The doctor is not taking him up on the offer.

Okay, the first inning has kicked off. Time to unravel some SOX. [img]http://wines.com/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]

Kcwhippet · 10-24-2007, 11:01 PM,

Not much unravelling going on through the fourth inning.

~~Bucko~~ · 10-24-2007, 11:08 PM,

They just want to spot them a game so they don't look so bad...ahem... [img]http://wines.com/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]

Kcwhippet · 10-25-2007, 08:30 AM,

Now you're just rationalizing.

Innkeeper · 10-25-2007, 11:05 AM,

Heh! Heh!

~~Bucko~~ · 10-25-2007, 12:32 PM,

Not that the SOX has been lulled into smug complacency, it is time for the Rockies sweep. Watch and weep. [img]http://wines.com/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]

Did I ever say, "BOOMER SOONER!"

Kcwhippet · 10-25-2007, 12:56 PM,

Sure is nice to have a dream, impossible though it may be.

~~Bucko~~ · 10-25-2007, 09:28 PM,

Gimme a buzz and I'll send ya a Notre Dame crying towel. [img]http://wines.com/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]

~~Bucko~~ · 10-25-2007, 11:53 PM,

Wow, we finally have a good game tonight -- real nail biter in the 6th.

I'm flipping back and forth, enjoying VT knock off BC -- that'll move the Sooners up another notch in the polls.

BC is marching down the field in the 4th...

~~Bucko~~ · 10-26-2007, 12:08 AM,

Boy, BC made an amazing comeback! What a game! College football is where it is at for me in the sports world.

dananne · 10-26-2007, 12:27 AM,

Nothing beats college football, save perhaps the wonderful month of March in college hoops.

I will say, though, that this season of college football is unlike any I remember, with so many upsets and unbelieveable games. At this rate, I'd be very surprised if any team manages to make it through the season undefeated. Nice BC/VT game tonight.

She insisted on us watching Field of Dreams on DVD laast night, and when it finished, I couldn't reset the DirecTV remote back to watching TV. Dang! Still screwed up this AM.

hotwine · 10-26-2007, 02:27 PM,

OK, finally figured out the button sequence and the TV is back in business..... just no way to recover last night's games.

winoweenie · 10-26-2007, 06:32 PM,

Fergitabbouit HW, as I slept thru the whole bloomin' thin! WW

~~Bucko~~ · 10-26-2007, 07:32 PM,

The Rockies are toying with the SOX -- lulling them into a slumber before they whack them good.

That's my story and I'm sticking with it. [img]http://wines.com/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]http://wines.com/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]http://wines.com/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]
