What a horrible Birthday

[Bulldog Bruce]

My Birthday was Saturday. So all my teams are bad. We all know about MSU, but my Mets get eliminated and the Jets just keep falling apart. Thanks fandom gods.

 

[Dawgg]

But your Liberty just won the WNBA, which, really when you think about it, makes it all worth it! Congratulations and Happy Birthday, Bruce!

Starrrrrrt spreadin’ the neeeewwwsss…

I feel ya padres go knocked out last week. And the two least favorite teams in all of baseball are in the World Series. All my football teams are terrible too.

The sports apocalypse is here!

Also, go Dodgers!

Also, go Dodgers!

Kirk Gibson . . . what a big-time HR. First game of the '88 World Series, both legs injured, hobbled up to the batter's box, two outs, bottom of the ninth, down one run, facing Dennis Eckersley (HOF closer), count quickly went to 0-2, battled back to take the count to 3-2, then . . . BOOM! Clutch 2-run HR to win the game.

I remember watching Gibson's HR on the TV at CS's in Jackson, beer in hand.

I was 8 and that was the moment I fell in love with baseball and I've been a Dodgers fan ever since.

You're kidding. I was at CS's too. That was a fun night.

Last night was the first game I watched Rodgers this season. He sucks.

According to Tommy Lasorda, the HR hit by Scioscia in the 88 NLCS to beat the Mets was more consequential than the Gibson HR. We just remember that because of the visual of him limping around the bases (which he later admitted he exaggerated for the moment).

He definitely doesn’t have the mobility back, and it’s affecting him in and out of the pocket. Also doesn’t seem sharp with his throws in general, though that could be argued as rust.

Happy birthday anyway, fellow Libra!

Happy birthday anyway, fellow Libra!

You two must have the same personality!

Fun Fact (Dodger version)

It was.

Much more fun than the Mississippi State-USM football game that I attended earlier that day. (1988 --- Tech and 10)

That’s been my Fall so far. State fan first, then Titans, plus teams I root for situationally are all crapoing the bed except for UK, Ark, and Vandy those one off times. I’m like a combined 5 for my last 40. Lots of nature walks.
