I'm stir crazy. I don't know what to think or how to act right now. So many emotions. Sports tears are coming. I just know it. I'm excited. I'm anxious. I'm nervous. I'm ready. I'm just about ready to explode trying to contain every emotion.

I was too young to really appreciate the rockets championships. This is so different than those were.

I was really confused because when I first saw that photo for a second I thought it was

someone, Altuve, Bregman, someone and Marwin dressed up as the backstreet boys. Which struck me as odd but hey whatever if it that's what it takes to stay loose it is halloween...

So I got really confused when it actually was the backstreet boys.

Now that you mention it you really could pass them off as Bregman, Altuve, Correa, Reddick, and Marwin dressed as the Backstreet Boys.

I have had some Dallas friends tell me today that they feel this series is very similar to 2011 Cards/Rangers. They were very confident going into Game 6 as the Cards went home down 3-2 and won the last two at home after the terrible collapse in Game 6. Remember to close it out tonight guys.



Was Justin ****ing Verlander on the mound????



Nope. Let's gooooooooo
Im looking for Ray Finkle.... and a clean pair of shorts. Im just a very big Finkle fan. This is my Graceland, sir.

I know they don't do throwbacks in the postseason. But it would be awesome if we didn't win tonight to break out the rainbows tomorrow just as a sign that it's our destiny to win this series.

That was very insensitive to the mascot culture. Hopefully Lasorda was suspended for that....

I think that's what makes good hitters so impressive - they can pick the pitch up off the spin of the ball out of the hand and process it so quickly.

I was thinking the same thing. Halfway there, there is very little difference

If you ever want your mind blown watch the documentary Fastball on Netflix.

It's incredible how talented ML hitters are.

Can someone explain why that every time I see them advertise for the next game in the series, it has said 7:xx ET? Or am I just crazy? Is it standard time vs daylight saving time? Because that's confusing as hell.

It seems I've seen it every game so far.

Just heard Kevin Millar introduce Gattis as a Texas A&M Aggie? Then Kevin said "whoop whoop"

So tired of the talking heads making excuses for the Dodger Bullpen. Overworked, mismanaged, slick ball.
No - it's the Astro hitters that are raking "the best bullpen in baseball" just like they crushed the Yankees and "their best bullpen in the American League".
Let's do this boys. Bring it home!!!!!

I've had some NY friends tell me this is exactly like 2003 when Marlins were confident and won game 6 at Yankee stadium.

If I were him, I'd tip my helmet like I was acknowledging a warm welcome. That would be classic.

That's when FOX starts their coverage...they want you tuning in early.

Why the **** does it matter what this reminds people of? Haven't we learned that no one has a ****ing clue what is going on in this series?

that's happened in the WS twice in the last 35 years

1992, 2003

once has an away team up 3-2 dropped game 6 and come back to win the series (2014, using Bumgarner for a five-inning save)

8 times has the home team won game 6 and 7 (2011 being the latest occurrence)

so yeah
