Red Sox win game one of the 2007 World Series, ho hum
I decided yesterday to watch the World Series even though the Sox were in it. Fox does a great job with MLB and Buck/McCarver combo with their sideline guys are pretty good, especially compared to the AV washout morons on TBS.
Well, it didn’t turn out so well. The game was boring and Colorado never put up a fight. In fact, by the time the third inning rolled around, I was watching Fawlty Towers reruns on BBC. Then my wife came in and we watched Pushing Daisies. For Red Sox fans, a 13-1 drubbing is great, I know it would be great if the Yanks were in it and they were pounding the other team. But for me, who just wanted to see a good game, it was boring and predictable.
I’ll try again tonight but as I’ve said, this is going to be a joke of a Series and Loser Nation will have another championship.
BTW, I like seeing the stands at Fenway. I wonder how many of those wealthy men and women in the stands and spoiled rich kids had to go out and buy a ton of Red Sox crap, like jackets and ponchos, so they could look like they have been long time suffering Red Sox fans. For every 5 thousand dollar a seat fake last night, there are a million true fans barely scraping by watching the game at the Elks or some local watering hole who could never dream of coming up with the kind of cash or connections to get them into the game last night. It’s too bad, but supply and demand favor those with the wallet.
Dave out.
