2008 World Series: Chicago (A) vs. Chicago (N) [The Windy City Series]

[browntown653]

Memo to White Sox : DO NOT WIN GAME 3 IF YOU WANT TO WIN THE SERIES

Going up 3-0 on the Cubs is a bad thing.

[Kingdom]

If you want to do live sim the rest of the way, DMB told me he'd be home in about an hour. If you just want to run it out, he said he was okay with that too, and I'm definitely okay with it. So, whatever you want to do is fine.

How about this, if we go to a game 7, we'll do that live.

PLAYER OF THE GAME: Roy Oswalt
Game Notes:
Felipe Lopez was ejected in the 2nd for arguing a strike three call. 33 minute rain delay in 3rd inning. Geovany Soto was injured being hit by a pitch. Roy Oswalt sets a career high for K's in a game!

Oswalt was obviously pissed off that game three went to the cubs.

[browntown653]

See, the Sox listened to me and now they're up 3-1. It was a brilliant strategy.

[Dam8610]

How about this, if we go to a game 7, we'll do that live.

That works.

[Slyder]

*cue the goat* . CUBS WIN, CUBS WIN.. Hey I can dream cant I .

Buerhle vs. Broadway is game 6

[Dam8610]

Damn, Roy must have been pissed. That's probably his best game of the year. And Prior loses it yet again. Valiant comeback attempt by the offense though.

[browntown653]

I was just about to type "I predict a Cubs win" too. DAMN

[Kingdom]

Here we go..

[Dam8610]

I was just about to type "I predict a Cubs win" too. DAMN

Prior sucks in the playoffs for the most part. Hey, if nothing else, I have my ace going for me if it comes down to a Game 7.
