It is going to be a fun World Series! Smile

"Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be' - she always called me Elwood - 'In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant."

It might be played in the snow! Should be fun.

That should be the case in both venues, but it was 65 degrees when Dice-K threw the first pitch last night. That's just WRONG for Boston in October. You won't find any of the players complaining about global warming though, playing baseball in really cold weather's not a whole lot of fun.

Unfortunately, WJAB can't play the red sox broadcast, they need to play the ESPN broadcast. Which means that there is a high probability that I am not going to like whoever is going to call the games.

Actually, Dave O'Brien does a lot of work with ESPN, so who knows, he might get tapped. I know that I'm going to have some weary days in the office this week and next ... why do they start the games so damn late?

Money. An 8pm East Coast start is still really early for the large (and therefore lucrative) West Coast TV markets. I was bright eyed and bushy tailed this morning though. That was because I overslept by three hours. It's never a good thing when the first thing you hear to start your day is your boss's voice. Oops.
