I went all the way to Iceland last December and I didn’t see it there. But I did see some high quality blizzards.

You don’t realize that Pete Hegseth’s feelings count for more. Because his warrior. And not fat.

Joel Klatt was showing the proper respect by the great call by the back judge in the IU-PSU game.

They appreciate the effort though.

I couldn't decide between watching Liverpool vs Real Madrid or PSG vs Bayern, so I did the next best thing and I'm watching Bodo/Glimt vs Monaco.

Not this German Catholic raised guy. We had Mary. We had Margaret. And if you got fancy, you might see a Mary Ellen.

Although it's just pronounced like Mary + Annette and I assume her parents wanted a cute spelling. Although she is Catholic, and in general, we don't do stuff like with our names. Especially if Mary is part of it.

Chicago won 1-0 and Dodgers manager Walter Alston went through so many players that he had to use pitcher Larry Sherry as a pinch hitter in the 9th.

Neal, a right handed batter, still ended up hitting a fly ball to right where Rivera was able to handle it to end the threat.

Presumably, Lopez thought Rivera could cover the huge right field at the LA Coliseum and deal with finding any fly ball among the sea of humanity that right fielders saw. Shaw started off with a wild pitch, moving the runners to 2nd and 3rd

Chicago manager Al Lopez left his starter Bob Shaw in. But he put in a new right fielder, Jim Rivera, moving Al Smith to left and taking out Jim McAnany.

In Game 5, the White Sox were clinging to a 1-0 lead in the 7th trying to bring the series back to Chicago. The Dodgers had 2 on with 2 outs with Charlie Neal up.

This reminded me of a similar outfield sub back in 1959.

Pages didn’t need to use his arm, but he did make a game saving running catch to end the inning.

In the 9th inning last night, Dave Roberts pulled Tommy Edman from center and put in Andy Pages, presumably because Pages had a better outfield arm.

First World Series to end on a GIDP since 1947. Bruce Edwards of Brooklyn did it on a 6-4-3: Rizzuto to Stirnweiss to McQueen.

I suggest it is a good time to pinch hit Cooney and Blake.
