UConn hoops, Red Sox and some poker talk as well. If you're here because of something I said about the New York Yankees, or because I replied to you praising a college hoops team (men or women) not named UConn, I was probably trolling. South NJ via CT

As we prepare for the game tonight don't forget that #Yankees ownership contributed to Donald Trump and #RedSox ownership supported Kamala Harris and contributes to liberal causes.

It's the 1979 expansion ALCS

Oh it certainly was.

I have a good friend from LA. I very calmly told him before the series: "I'm not talking smack, I'm telling it like it is. This Red Sox team is the best team I've ever seen and you'll be lucky to win 1 game." Ian Kinsler was their luck.

To be clear, of course I understood that it was a must win, but the thought of being surrounded by 50,000 screaming fans while the Yankees were in a pile at home plate didn't register until that moment.

Yeah, but from around May 1st 2018 on, I never doubted for a second that they were winning the World Series that year.

True story: I was at game 6. It literally NEVER OCCURRED TO ME that I could see the Yankees celebrating until Tony Clark came up as the potential winning run with 2 outs in the 9th.

This game makes me wonder how I survived games 4, 5 and 6 of the 2004 ALCS.

It's only happened once, and the guy was a joke.

Correct

Steve @redsoxhuskies.bsky.social · 1h

That's because it was a foul ball.

I saw only one that I liked... He claimed he was going to do an entire Beatles album, but he skipped over the hits because he admitted he'd heard them before... Only one I ever saw that felt genuine.

I hate those things. They all feel very staged.

Hey look! I never heard *insert incredibly popular song here*!!! Now watch me go crazy half a second before the guitar solo that I shouldn't have known was coming!!!
