B2: Wandy  doubles scoring Spaz and Kepp. Bourn K's, Matsui doubles scoring Q and Wandy. HOU 4, PHI 0
B3: Spaz HRs to right scoring Miggy. HOU 6, PHI 0

Both the Texans and Cowboys are playing.

Its 8:45 in Houston on a Friday night and SnSers are out at the bars razzing Oregon fans (oh wait, thats me in a couple of hours. Nevermind...).

No one realized the Astros were going to match their run production for the last umpteen hundred games tonight against Cliff Lee.

Cecil Cooper is still managing.

Bench isn't online so the Bench-girls decided not to come out and play.

Etc...

My video feed is really erratic, and Gameday is always a lot slower than the real action.  GZ is always the best way for me to follow what is going on.

I'm keeping half an eye on Gameday, but otherwise it's a work night tonight.

Yes, I posted in the beer thread earlier.  These two statements are not inconsistent.

Wait a minute. It's tomorrow there already?!?! It's like you're in the future because it's September 5th there and September 4th here. At the same time.
