Who will be the hero? Who will be the goat? Track the game right here with your fellow fans: Pre-game, in-game, post-game. Be the first to offer the analysis. Have at it!
The Mets call Al Leiter to come back from game analysis to pitch after the injury bug takes out both Ollie's, Heilman, Traschel, and Glavine in the first 2 innings.
Easy--if they perform like they have throughout the series, McCarver and Buck beat Luis Gonzalez to every chance to speak. Thus, we all lose.
(Seriously, he seems to disappear for innings at a time. The #1 announcing team, cough, should throw him a bone once in awhile instead of blabbing between every pitch.)
You know, Game 7's are supposed to be exciting. However, when I think of the probability that whoever wins this game is just going to get slaughtered by the Tigers, then it doesn't seem so exciting anymore.
Beltran. I said to my wife just before that pitch, "HU-UGE hanging curve, frozen pizza, K." I kid you not. Good thing the Astros got rid of him. Coincidence that he still hasn't been to the Series?
I think for one of the games next week I need to watch the game of FOX but listen to ESPN Radio. I heard a little bit of Tim Kurkjian tonight and he sounded pretty good.

Tigers in 5.

I'm rooting for the Cards tonight, but whoever wins, I'm rooting against a sweep by the Tigers. I don't want a 3 straight drumming by the AL.
Not that a switch to the NL would help since they've lost on the AL side in 4 of the last 5 years. And only Aaron Bleepin' Boone sent them on in '03.
The Fibonacci sequence! Nice.
Man, these pitchers are horrible. Why couldn't we have gotten more effective pitchers for a Game 7?!?
Oh, and in case you didn't know, I was being sarcastic!
ENDY CHAVEZ FOR MVP!!!!! WOW!

I love the photo of Chavez' catch in front of the 'The Strength to Be There' sign on ESPN. I'm making it my desktop at work tomorrow, win or lose.
AARRGGHH!!
Ok Mets. Valentin and Chavez get on base, and then Julio Franco hits a 3-run HR for the win. I can feel it.
Cliff Floyd could work too. LETS GO METS!
Or Jose Reyes. I'm really not picky. (That was one sweet breaking ball to nail Floyd)
Damn
Ah well. Back to football.

I don't understand all these complaints about McCarver. We know he sucks, why is anyone watching the game off of mute?
I was unaffiliated until that catch. After that I was rooting pretty hard for the Mets so that play wouldn't get forgotten in a week. Oh well...

Wow, talk about a late night at the WWL ... not only do they have Simmons' Game 7 Diary up, they even put up a new Page 2 line.
What a great game. this is why it's great to be a baseball fan.
To avoid a choke, blame the ump?
Difference was the Mets getting two hits in the first...and two in the ninth. That, and Heilman hanging a changeup.
Is Beltran still frozen at the plate?
