World Series

[navane]

Hi!!

Because I'm 8 hours ahead of Pacific time, last night's game 7 of
the World Series was on from 12am - 4:30am. Doh! I couldn't afford to
lose that sleep because of all the reading I have to do for class (gotta
be alert to read). So, I went to bed instead. Buuutttttt....I woke
up this morning to hear the good news......


WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! CHA-CHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ANGELS WIN!!!!!!!!! ANGELS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!


Hehehehehehehehe!!! That is so exciting!


Of course, I'm a big San Diego Padres fan; they are my *favorite*
team. But, after living in Long Beach for 7 years, I adopted the
Anaheim Angels as my "second" team. FYI - I lived about 10-15 minutes from
Anaheim. Though I lived in Los Angeles County, Los Angeles itself, and
the stinky Dodgers, are about 30 -45 minutes away. Make that 2 hours
during rush hour!

Hey, the announcers during the pregame show on the channel over here
(one English guy and one American!) mentioned that the US ratings for
this World Series is one of the lowest ever. They were surprised
because they were getting tons of e-mails from people writing in to the
station in the UK. They, and I, think that has to do with the Series
being between two California teams. Humph! The Midwest and East coast
people just have no respect for the West!

I already have plans to host a Super Bowl party. I have NO IDEA how
I'm going to work it out since it's probably going to be in the middle
of the night on a SUNDAY. But, I know a few English people who want
me to have the Super Bowl party (because they think it would be cool to
do something "American"?) I know I'm looking forward to it because it's
being hosted in San Diego!!! Yay!!! I get to watch Super Bowl AND show
off my hometown at the same time. And if the Chargers make it to the
Bowl.......someone hold me back!!!!

Ok......I just wanted to share my sports enthusiasm....

Thanks GiantsChic for being so cool! SAE, man, you are too funny!

Way to go Halos!!!!!!

Of course, I'm really upset about the Giants loss, but I'll get over it eventually. To make it to the 7th game of the World Series is something to be proud of. Who knows what will happen to my team now, but for all its worth, I had the time of my life this postseason. The Giants were 8 outs away from the title but couldn't hold on. The Angels deserved to win after that comeback. Even me, a diehard Giants fan will admit that.

I'm just upset for those players who may not get another chance at a ring. Santiago, Dunston, etc....

Way to go Giants!! See you next season!

Did anyone realize the fan that got ejected for hitting Reggie Sanders with one of those thunder stick things was a girl?

[DeltaSigStan]

I knew that, whats your point?

[The1calledTKE]

Just thought it was a guy. Does there have to be a point???

[DeltaSigStan]

Good point.

They're parading the Angels down Disneyland's Main Street and then rallying over at Edison Field today. I hear they're expecting thousands of people...wish I could be there! It was a great Series and I'm SO happy for the Angels. They deserved this win!
