2015 World Series: Mets vs. Royals

[Uli2001]

This WS is over. KC is a much better team and will likely sweep.

During the postseason, in those GEICO ads that feature Peter Pan going to his class reunion, does Peter look ridiculously like Jeffrey Maier?

Seems to match the attitude I probably wrongly attached to him.

You also said that you feared that the Orioles would finish the 2015 season at 4-32 when they were struggling in mid-August.

And now you're declaring that the series is over, and that the Royals are vastly superior when they are about to go up 2 games to 0.

You're either a front-runner, or you like to kick teams when they are down ...... or both.

The Second Time They Met, Jeffrey Maier Didn't Dare Mess With Tony Tarasco

Heh-heh :beerchug1:

How much money would you have paid to have watched Tarasco and the 17 year-old Maier mix it up ???

I really wish that that kid's friend had opened his mouth.

I guess it's enough that Meier almost literally pissed his pants when he thought that the kid would tell Tarasco what he had said about him

Would have been a rematch for the ages.

So far, this series is shaping up somewhat similar to the Mets' series with the Cubs in the N.L.C.S.

The Cubs had no answer when they went back home after the first 2 games.

The Mets' resolve will be tested in essentially the same fashion as was the Cubs'.

14 years ago, I asked a friend of mine who is an avid Mets fan how much money he would be willing to pay to watch Lennox Lewis fight Roger Clemens in a 12-round boxing match.

He thought about it for a few seconds, and calmly replied, "Seventy-five."

That was hilarious to me, because he didn't crack a smile, or show any emotion ....... he simply stated in the most matter-of-fact fashion.

I was probably more in the $35 range for Maier-Tarasco. But with a refund policy in case the fight was called due to soiled boxing trunks.

Is Ed Kranepool and Cleon Jones also playing?

The National Anthem in the World Series in Baltimore was done by the York High School Band.Shea had Pearl Bailey and Steve Lawrence in 1969.

KC is unstoppable. The Mets are out of their league (literally, it's the WS).

KC is unstoppable. The Mets are out of their league (literally, it's the WS).

But the Mets are at home so isn't it KC which is currently out of their league?

[Chavez Ravine]

The 'ol 0-2 pitch....against the pitcher no less.

Seems like there's a few more fans there tonight then there were in May when I watched Bartolo Colon beat Bud Norris.

The Cubs were unstoppable until they played the Mets.

The Blue Jays were unstoppable until they played the Royals.

Perhaps neither of them should have bothered taking the field in their respective League Championship Series.

And maybe the Mets should just give up right now, because they are down 2 games to 0.

You gotta point there. :vader:
