I actually watched and enjoyed the game. Not having a rooting interest allows for stress free viewing and just enjoying the game for itself. Tough loss for Arizona as they had a won game, except for that pesky 27 outs thing. Maybe consider pitching around Garcia. Red hot is red hot and he is. -- Al

Amen to that. Drinking and driving is potential murder. The acceptence and light sentences that accompany this crime is a real pet peeve of mine. I'm very extreme in my view on the subject, so suffice it to say that I feel punishment should be biblical in the case of drinking and driving that...

I suppose I have to congratulate Arizona for taking a series the Phillies had in hand. They never gave up and they win the NL Pennant. Have to admit that they were never on my radar and I never expected them to win, even down to Game 7. No horse in the finals so Good Luck to both teams. Play a...

Congratulation to Texas. Impressive series win for the AL Pennant. Houston has playoff yips on their home field again, just like 2019, when they lost all 4 of the WS games on their home turf. Odd series with no home wins for either team. Texas can hit. -- Al

First thing that went through my mind when the 'missle hits hospital' story broke was that Hamas had done it to themselves, probably on purpose, maybe by accident, but it was a Hamas missle for sure. It is how Hamas operates. -- Al

JMO, but if a player hits a Hr, and must show up the pitcher with some ridiculous display of dramatics ie., bat flip, or stare, then I think it should be expected that someone is going to pay, either the next batter or whoever gets elected as the pay-back pegion. Just be professional, hit Hr...

Ran across this while channel-surfing. Watched it and was fascinated. Highly recommend. An incredible story of destruction and the ultimate saving of the species. -- Al

That is a very interesting fact. Never realized it. Thanks. -- Al

Watched some of this game. Saw a 29-0 lead blown and then watched Stanford drive from their own one-yard line, with less than 3 minutes left, to position for a game tying FG at the gun. Didn't watch the OT but was pleased to see Stanford won the game. Great comeback and well-earned win. -- Al

Keep an eye out for the two you are missing, the SE-5a and DH-2. They are, IMO, John's best work. Either of the DH-2 versions are brilliant with outstanding detail. The SE-5a is also excellent and I am surprised that it has never been added to John's production line, being as how iconic it is...

There are more aircraft in the pipeline. I can't get specific, not at liberty to do so, but at least one of them will be a real crowd pleaser and falls in line with a theme John followed in the past. Just a matter of being patient because I'm sure John's production schedule is jammed. This is...

JMO, leave the call with the umps, for good or bad, or go to a foolproof ball/strike system that takes the ump out of the decision. -- Al

I would posit that the NFL has sucked as a product for quite a few years now. I know it is wildly popular, but I believe that is because today's fans, especially the younger fan base, have no idea what real football from last century was really like, with running games, defenses that were...

Sammy, don't believe there are any originals left. There are one or two with the name that have a vague connection to the original, maybe name only, in Towson and/or Glen Burnie. Never been to them. Another lost landmark of days past. -- Al

The Braves have a tall order, to win on the road, but at least they can throw MLB's only 20 game winner at the Phils. Won't be surprised if the Braves pull out a win, but I think the odds are with Philly and the bat and intensity of Harper. -- Al

Read somewhere that someone on those old Colt teams used to deliver coal part-time. That was a team tied to a city, time, and place. Never see it again. More's the pity. -- Al

Harper comes up big and the Phillies have pushed the Braves to the brink. If Atlanta goes, no 100 game winners left to play for the WS. Something of a bad joke. At least 3 of the 4 will have 90 wins, but Arizona? At least we are spared a possible Minnesota v Arizona WS. -- Al

Due to the demise of the O's, I now will follow and root on the Philly Nats. I would like to see Harper rewarded with a title. Love him or hate him, Harper competes to win with all he's got. Go Phils. -- Al

December? -- Al

No. But no one is. JMO. -- Al
