so the WS starts on Wednesday, right? That means game three will be Saturday night. How come everytime I go to Burlington, the Red Sox are playing.


I saw them win the WS in Burlington in \'04 at Nectars.  It was a good time.  Good to be with Dobz celebrating, smoking a joint watching the blue moon.

Wolfman, where are you watching Game 1 on Wednesday?  I\'ll meet up with you if you\'re going to be at a sports bar.


I\'m going to be in Boston that night as well. We should definitely meet up for a drink.

Oof.  This has been in the back of my mind for weeks though for obvious reasons I didn\'t discuss it openly...what to do if this incredible 3-night Breakfast run conflicts with the Red Sox in the World Series?

I have been planning on all 3 nights of Breakfast, although I was kind of screwed for Toad\'s from the start because due to an event for work I can\'t get out of work until 8:30-9 that night which puts me in New Haven around 11.  I was all about doing it anyhow, but I think Game 2, in Boston, will be enough incentive to keep me here.  I mean, I\'d have to listen to the first 6-7 innings on radio, then miss the end of the game outright. Meanwhile, I\'d probably miss Breakfast\'s opener and worst case whole first set all at the same time.  I mean, that\'s a shitty night.  I\'d rather commit to one activity that I can enjoy every minute of (in this case, the game since the show isn\'t really an option for that) than to just get bits and pieces and an incomplete experience from two events.

I will NOT skip FF9 for game 3.  It\'s FF for crying out loud.  Count me in for Games 1 and 2 and shows 2 and 3.  Seems fair enough.

Sounds like you have it pretty well figured out. :)

good luck to all you sox fans. I WAS rooting for the rockies because they swept the phillies but after learning they are all Jesus freaks and are claiming all their success is thanks to Jesus my allegiance to them has been seriously diminished.

8 days off is what is going to beat the Rockies. A team with that much momentum did not need 8 straight days off to cool off. Shit, you can gain 20 pounds in that time.

So it begins...

HA! Amen to that... wait.... Anyways, try on Arizona and Houston while you\'re at it. Like Jesus Camp for athletes. My brother got picked up by the \'Stros organization this past year and got to know Berkman, Burke and some other personnel really well through nightly Bible study. He told me as if I\'d get excited. Instead I threw up and dreamt sweetly of Satan hitting dongs off \'81 Nolan Ryan.

Anyone seen Christopher Hitchens\'s recent debate with Dinesh D\'Souza? I\'m on Team Hitchens, the man is brilliant.

Oh, and Sox in 5.

Yeah, actually. Ummmm, so how\'d you pull that one out?

Josh Beckett -- 28 IP - 34 SO - 2 BB - 1.29 ERA - Best Postseason Pitcher of Our Time.

I felt the wrath of his venom in \'03 as a Cub fan in his breakout year. Then he shutdown the Yanks. The kid is incredible. Ice cold.
