Ain't that the truth! I saw a great sign at one of the games. It said "Universal sign for choke" and had the NYM logo.

I have been thiniking about the team a lot lately. Dykstra, Daulton, the Krukster, Mitch "The Wild Thing" Williams, Mickey Morindini, Pete Eisenreich. Was Incavilgia on that team? Good memories there.

I remember standing down by first base rail before a game with my unlce trying to get Eisenreich's autograph. He was all the way down by the box and my uncle shouted "Hey Pete - it's my kid's birthday!" and he came all the way back.


Ahh, back before baseball was ruined by cheaters.

You're lucky he came back...I'm surprised "Jim" responded to Pete

I can name every starter (including platoons) and starting pitcher from that team. Good times

I'm with you on this. I think the Ray's look tough.

Either way It will be nice to see a Non Yankees, Non Red sox champion. I think those two teams need to go sit on the bench for a couple of decades... ROFL.

One of these days the Rockies will do something crazy like back to back winning seasons... last year was such a tease lol.

The phillies managed not to choke. Hopefully tonight the Rays finish off the bosox so we can get on with the world series.

How exactly is going 4-1 in the NCLS "managing not to choke"?

I'd call that a damn fine showing.
