Yes I did. Did you know that the Giants played at Shea Stadium in 75 (I believe that year is right) while Giants Stadium was being built? I had season tickets to the Jets at Shea for four years (High School) while living on Long Island back in the day. The gentleman I sat next gave me a history lesson on NY sports each game. Amazingly I remember almost all that he taught me.

I'm impressed. You are correct.  That was actually one of then answers/questions on Jeopardy a couple of weeks back.  That may have been the year just before Giants stadium opened.

Still that’s a pretty cool memory Cuz. Did you know the jets (Titans) also played their first few years at the Polo Grounds? That old park saw a lot action over the years. 

Did you know the Polo Grounds name was given to a few different parks in NYC?

I did not. You win. I knew there were 3 or so Madison Square Gardens.  Went to an ice show when I was a kid at one of the older ones.

You don’t need to give me anything ***** Astro’s going for the epic comeback, word has it they have another sign stealing strategy that is reaping benefits.

I can’t believe the Rays are going to lose four straight...that is a killer.

Cash lost this series when he pinch ran for Zunino in the top of the 9th in a tie game in Games 5, and didn't send him in any of the next 3 at bats. He played it scared. Then starting Lowe in left last night when he had only started and finished 2 games there and can't hit an underhand pitch right now.

I know people are in love with this guy but the pitching and analytics are the competitive differentiators for this team, not this marble mouthed fool.

Haven’t watched much since they beat the Yankees (which was all I cared about). However, I would have liked to have seen them win. I’ll keep my eye on the game during the commercial time from the Bama vs Georgia game.

Dude.  I was trying to be understanding and empathetic.  I totally get where you are coming from.

Yet you want to just be an ass!  F off!

Yes however the one negative is do we have good coaches? Jury is out, it is early but I don’t have the warm and fuzzy’s.  We shall see

You never have any warm and fuzzys.  You cold fish!
