OFFICIAL World Series Game 4 thread!
GO SOX!!! Though if the Astros with this one I won't be TOO devastated.

Bottom of the first, two outs, Biggio on second.

1. Come Backe
(sign in the crowd)

Let's hope so. One win in the Series would be enough for me. *sigh*

3. He's up now.
It's OK. There's no shame in losing to the best. :D Plus, you guys have made every game a nail-biter. Especially last night.

2. Here's hoping to a good game though hopefully not as long as last nights
I am a sox fan thru and thru, but Houston's making us work for it. :D Thanks Houston for making this a good series.

4. I'm sorta hoping the Sox drop the next two
So they can win it in front of the home folks. Also because I don't want the season to end. :cry:
But a sweep would rock, too. :bounce:


(Crap. I hate to see a triple get wasted.)

5. I was conflicted about rooting for any "Sox" team...but I got over it!
I always root AL, without the Yankees. So go WHITE Sox!

23. BoSox are my other team...
Edited on Wed Oct-26-05 10:31 PM by ZombieNixon
since last year's win, but I'm a Chicagoan now, so White Sox are my main obsession. This is the first year I've started giving a rat's ass about baseball at all, and it's a good one!

the city must be electric

28. Last year I only started caring toward the end with the election
and Kerry being from Mass. Also, I'm a huge Dropkick Murphys fan, and I like Boston as a city.

Now, however, I'm in the heart of the action. Win or lose, they are expecting riots tonight. There are seriously barricades along the sidewalks outside my dorm!

48. Hey, small ball is good. ChiSox are known for it. But they can also
hit the homer, and kill you with great starting and relief pitching.

46. I was thinking the same thing
Not "sporting," but not very good fans. No arms up, no nothing.

Who knows? Maybe they were Sox fans.

47. That's what I was thinking.
I was surprised to see so many Sox fans in Houston.

Of course if it had been the other way around, I would have interfered and tried to keep him from making the play ;)

50. You can't actually 'interfere'
Like you can't shove a guy or somethin'. But if the ball's in the stands, you've got as much right to it as the players do, so if your team's at bat, GET THEM HANDS UP!

:evilgrin:
