2011 World Series Thread
QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 27, 2011 -> 11:28 PM) I've mentioned this a few times now...the books here have a ton of exposure on the Cardinals because their odds were so ridiculous at the beginning of Sept. There's some guy from St Louis who put $250 on the Cardinals to win both the NL and the WS. The NL was 500-1. He already cashed $125k there. The WS was 999-1. I think there are a ton of people who put between $10-100 on the Cards in the beginning of Sept when the odds were that long though. Well where the hell were you to tell me this back than?

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Oct 27, 2011 -> 11:23 PM) In a video game you might try that. Real-life, no f***ing way. You're not letting a single lose the game for you. It was a good career move for me. And against all odds I would have done it anyway. I'll take my chances with Allen Craig over Albert and Lance in that situation. You're a funny guy.

So my buddy just showed me his gambling ticket from September 12th when he put 10 dollars on the Cards to win it all...

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Oct 27, 2011 -> 10:54 PM) I'm sad that it's over and I have to think about being at work in eight hours. Ya. I couldn't care less about either of these teams but there's no way I can go to sleep right now, too much adrenaline, that was too much fun.

Was I the only one that would have walked Albert and Lance in the 10th? I know it goes against pretty much everything but I wouldn't have even thought twice about it, would have walked them both.

Well that was awesome. Momentum doesn't mean s*** in baseball but Texas is going to have to score a lot of runs with Harrison on the mound.

If it gets to game 7, stupid move to start Harrison.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Oct 27, 2011 -> 01:07 AM) I was in Watterson Towers at ISU drinking Keystone Light with my good friend IamPabloOzuna. I literally sat in my dorm room by myself, no booze, I bought 2 large sprites from mcdonalds and ate pop tarts while I watched the game and all the post game coverage. I was such a cool freshman.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 26, 2011 -> 11:23 PM) Holy f*** that is him. I always knew that voice sounded so familiar but couldn't figure it out. Goosebumps every single time. It was talked about on here when the DVD was first made available. You sir are a disappointment.

Halloween Costumes
QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Oct 26, 2011 -> 10:04 PM) It would be one giant drunken brawl. For as much as you like to make fun of me for my drunkenness have you ever known me to get into "drunken brawl?" I've been in plenty of fights before but they're out of necessity, I don't go looking for problems. Anywho, since I know a bunch of you were worried, I found my sweet TMNT hat from when I was like 4, it's a flex fit and I can still make it fit my head. It's now a must use for my costume this year.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Oct 26, 2011 -> 08:41 PM) Yes, because you have thousands of Rowand44's running around. Agreed on all points Rock. If there were thousands of Rowand44's running around the world would be a much more fun yet scarier place.

Halloween Costumes
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 26, 2011 -> 05:36 PM) You don't need a costume for any of those! Well ya, Halloween gives the excuse for those though. I like to make people laugh with my costumes but me personally dressing up is no where near one of the top reasons that I love Halloween.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 26, 2011 -> 03:56 PM) I'm with you. Once you past like 15 years old and/or don't have kids, I don't get Halloween. Parties, parties, slutty dressed girls, slutty dressed girls, slutty dressed girls. LOVE.

LHolmes670 Laurence Holmes Bryce Harper with an OMG moment. Leaned into one and drove it 440ft over CF wall. Every scout here said "Whoa!" at the sound of it. #AFL

LET'S MAKE A LIST OCTOBER '11 - FAVORITE SPORTS MOVIES
QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Oct 26, 2011 -> 02:05 PM) Why wouldn't it be on your lists, though? I mean, even I voted for it despite hating Notre Dame. Is it weird that I've never seen Rudy?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 26, 2011 -> 01:06 PM) Anyone see the "Real Rocky" on ESPN? Awesome show. Sly came off like a douchebag. Haven't seen the documentary yet but ESPN through out the years has done a ton of pieces on Wepner.

Ya, Jordan Danks blows. It certainly doesn't hurt to protect him but I'm not going to shed a tear if we don't.
