Of course smoltz doesnt understand a ball hitting the yellow line and coming back into play isnt a home run regardless.

I've got to work tomorrow and will miss game 2 so I am drinking too many beers and enjoying Good Braves as long as I can.

Holy poo poo I was 12 last time we won the series. What a drought.

Was the Joe Carter walkoff the first or the second title? I was watching live and it was incredible.

Braves Fan agrees.

Also, I think you're an A's fan and, as a legitimate lifetime half-A's fan, I hope to one day see an A's title again. :emo:

All they have to do is win in four before his spot in Game 5 comes up again.

I'm very jealous. That's probably one of the most underrated sports moments in history and you saw it live, in person! drat.

I've always wondered why that doesn't get more play in the replays of MLB history. It's always Fisk or Thompson or whatever.

I would be perfectly happy if, for instance, playing the Joe Carter clip completely supplanted all showings of the Kirk Gibson clip

I’m sure I’ll never be to another WS game either. Cost, location, etc. Buffalo to Toronto is 1h30 drive, and $58 CDN for a ticket? My dad couldn’t go wrong, haha.

Though, he did have tickets for the possible Pittsburgh WS appearance. When Bonds couldn’t throw out Bream in game 7.

Golden Goose, etc.

I watched that live too, because I'm old, and my dad and I jumped around like assholes in our living room when Cabrera hit that diving liner to LF.

My best in-person claim is that I saw Chipper and Javier play against the Jax Suns at Wolfson when they were both briefly in AA with Greenville. Also watching the Marlins pre-season debut against the Royals when Jeff Conine nearly murdered himself on an insanely unsafe wooden outfield wall from the 60s. Charlie Hough knuckled himself to the win.

gently caress, I'm old.
