ROYALS vs Mets Game 5 for the CROWN
-
@Crimsonorblue22 How do you miss a mob of students headed to the stadium? Guess the campus police were asleep.

@VailHawk Old guys like @brooksmd & cut our teeth on Jayhawk basketball & sandlot baseball. We needed a pretty good surface & a tough leather ball for a decent basketball game, but a stick & a waded up piece of trash & you had a baseball game almost anywhere. Can’t speak for him, but it was my first love as a sport when a kid. I tried to make it that way for my sons too…Took em to countless Royals games when they were in diapers, pitching machines & catchers mitts for birthdays, and many springs & summers coaching & playing a young boys game. This is a special piece of history we’ll share forever. And as I’ve always told them; “The good things in life don’t mean nearly as much without some one to share them with.” So tonight we’ll all have dinner together to extend our love for each other & that crazy little kids game.

@brooksmd Man that’s pouring salt in a wound if there ever has been !
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I can believe they tore them down. They only tore down the ones in the end zone our football team goes towards right? Why would our pitiful team need goalposts?
(for you sticklers out there, yes I know the team goes the opposite direction in the 2nd half!)

@brooksmd Tomorrows World Series Parade is expecting to be attended their closet family members-almost a quarter million of them !!!http://fox4kc.com/2015/11/02/kansas-city-royals-to-host-world-series-parade-tuesday
-
@wissoxfan83 sorry, but I can’t bad mouth those fb players! Stupid to vandalize anything!
-
-
@Crimsonorblue22 That took some major league cajoles to pull that one off!
-
@globaljaybird ya know, big stick!
-
@globaljaybird Excellent, they’re gonna stream it live. Sounds like more chat fodder before Wed nite KU bb.
-
@brooksmd what will we do?
-
@globaljaybird It looks like it would’ve taken a perfect throw, low to the catchers left, to get Hos. But the Royals were in a can’t lose position anyway. Makes it, ties the game. Thrown out, just play again Tuesday back it the K.
-
-
Well what happened in KC last nite? Everybody just party and have a good time or did some take the op to tear stuff up?
-
@globaljaybird @VailHawk Think I’ve mentioned before, me and my buddy Pat Long spent summer vacations tearing up wiffle balls and stealing, I mean borrowing, mop and broom handles. He was always the Yanks and I was the lowly Cubs. Didn’t follow the KC A’s that much as they seemed like either a farm team or an old folks home for the Yankees. Not to mention my dad was in the Navy at Great Lakes NTC just north of Chicago and that’s where I first discovered and played baseball. But about 1 in the afternoon I would plop down in front of the tv, turn on WGN and watch the Cubs and listen to Jack Brickhouse. And my first trip to a ballpark was Milwaukee County Stadium to watch the Dodgers (Koufax) and Braves (Spahn). Just looked up Spahn’s stats; 13 years with 20 or more wins and 12 years with 20 or more complete games. At 42 yrs old he went 23-7 with 22 complete games. Back when real men played ball.

@globaljaybird I can’t believe they won!! Thats amazing for the team, the organization, the city and the fans. Way to go Royals!
The game went on too long for me, I had to wake up early and I live in the eastern time zone, so I woke up to very good news this am.
Rock Chalk Royals!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Gotta take your word for that girl…
-
-
@JRyman Glad to see the folks enjoyed the celebration and didn’t use it as an op to burn, jump on and turn over cars or loot stores. Down here in Nawlins when the Saints won the SB it was just one big party like they know how to do down here. Never could see the reason for destroying things to celebrate. ROCK CHALK ROYALS!
-
@globaljaybird You got a 15 ft level?
-
@brooksmd No Used a transit when needing larger than 4 ft like block or flatwork
-
@globaljaybird 12 ft curtain rod
-
From the NYPost:
No, this 111th World Series — and this 54th edition of the Mets — will forever be remembered by three haunting sentences, at least for the foreseeable future:
Two outs away …
Five outs away …
One out away …
-
@wissoxfan83 Did you get to see from the 9th inning to the end or tv never came back?
-
@brooksmd I watched on stream2watch.com Fox and NBC still are not working here on DirectTV, but only those two channels. Lots of Saints fans around here missed that epic game yesterday too I imagine.

-
@wissoxfan83 saw one said the darkest knight-ouch!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Another full page but it wouldn’t copy for some reason said “Amazin Disgrace” Got to love the NYPost! It’s actually pretty entertaining to read their sports page right now, lots of interesting stuff.
For example the Rangers, ie hockey Rangers, coach said that Cespedes disgraced himself by taking himself out of the game!
Another article ripped on Harvey’s “diva saga”. He should have ripped the manager for not putting Familia in. I’m kind of irked he didn’t because this was a World Series I didn’t want to end. Of course I’m no diehard of the Royals, so it’s easier to say, but I wanted more baseball, and Collins blew it!
-
@wissoxfan83 I’d like to the think kc media would not rip our own players! That’s why we are who we are, good, down to earth people that care about others. Dayton Moore is a strong Christian too, quite a few of the players are, nice to hear them profess their faith.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 And waaaaay over from the corner, all Gods children said…WORLD CHAMPS & AMEN !!!
-
