Just because I love baseball and am following this series in particular, I am placing my Boston Red Sox and Oakland Athletics fan jerseys on sale for the next couple of days. Get one or get both, each for a whopping 1 L$. And George Busch where ever you are, I'm thinking about you.. even though I hope my boys clinch the series.  My store is located in Aqua 214 187. My items are script sale. Pay the box and receive the item. Edit.. I changed the title to reflect the conversation as it is progressing. |

Oh, yes, I miss George...
Well the Sockies sure had one luicky game yesterday, eh? The Gods of Baseball came down from Mount Olympous on that one; how often is it that kind of technicality happens? Whew, well anywho, I'll have to check out those uniforms, Mis.
P.S: The Fish beat the Giants out! OMG!

Go Cubs! Hey, if the cubs beat the braves tonight, going to give L$2000 to someone! Someone gimme an idea to give it out. And hey, if the cubs go on, all they got to beat are the "fish" so cool! Cubs in the world series will be fun! Wow I've never been so exited about baseball before hehe. The reason I am so concentrated on the cubs is because my great grandmother died last year at 100 years old. She had been a huge cubs fan for most of her life and she had wished she could have seen the cubs win a world series before she died and that didn't happen but if she were alive she would be happy. Just thought I'd share

Derek I tell you what.. If the A's clinch the division title I'll give out 2,000 Linden too. My method (if they win) will be a baseball trivia question here in the forums. Darwin, that was one crazy game yesterday. The A's should have won but they played some sloppy ball & gave live to Boston. Now they need to watch their rears. It's been some good baseball to watch  . As far as the Giants, I didnt watch the game but I saw the highlights. They didnt look at all like they've looked all season. What a gift they gave. |

Here's the question I will ask: Who was the president of the United States when the Cubs last won the World Series? If you get the answer correct and the cubs beat the Braves tonight, you're L$2000 richer Also, I too miss George even though I only occasionally saw him but he was a friendly guy when I did see him. That's why I gave him L$2000 for his monument back before the time of Route 66 or Americana. If you were wondering why I'm giving L$2000 as THAT specific amount, it's because that's what I donated to George. btw way want to start guessing cause cubs are up by four and got Wood pitching. I think Wood's a great pitcher.

Guess who just won: THE CUBS! Cubs go to National League finals to play for a spot in the World Series. They're against the Dolphins so we'll see how that goes. Answer my question and win L$2000! A quick click to Google to find out what year the cubs last won the world series and find out who was president that year. It's an easy 2000! lol

I'm glad I don't like sports, because if I had to give out the amount I donated! :^X It was like L$15,000, and that was when I was poor... eh... actually, I'm poor now too

I feel for all you Boston fans but I gotta go with the A's since the Giants got knocked off. As always, DOWN WITH THE YANKS!

Top of the 7th. Boston up 4-2. Anyway, ouch! That was the nastiest collision I've seen in the outfield in a long time. Full speed head to head collision. The center fielder definitely got knocked out.

Tomorrow we see how well we go up against the Dolphins. Who do you think will win the series, Cubs or Dolphins? EDIT: Dar, they're both in the AL (I think) so they both won't be in the world series, but you probably meant to see the two in the American League Championship right?

Ah yes Marlins thank you for the correction. I've said the marlins as so many different teams like the dolphins and another team that starts with an M (can't think of it now) Thanks Ironchef
