FOX shows us how motherfucking stupid they are (I know, I know) by declaring that the winner of tonight's game will win the World Series.

So let me get this right...the Rangers tie it up tonight, making it a 3-game Series withOUT home field advantage, that's it, it's over, hand them the trophy?

Alkie · « **Reply #1 on:** October 31, 2010, 08:16:05 pm »

Wow, quite a turnout in the GZ tonight.

What an exciting Series.

I really never expected to like the Giants as much as I do. At least it isn't the Dodgers against the Rangers.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #8 on:** October 31, 2010, 08:55:56 pm »

I always liked Huff. I don't hate the Giants and they're N.L. -- that trumps the A.L. DFW Rangers of Arlington.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #10 on:** October 31, 2010, 09:08:58 pm »

The thing that pisses me off the most about the DFW Rangers of Arlington is those five letters across their chest. I get the Arizona Diamondbacks, I get the Minnesota Twins, but come on, the fuckin' Rangers, the 2nd MLB team in the state, have no right to claim that name on their jerseys. It's the stupidly fueled arrogance of claiming those five letters that makes me hate them. Not their proximity, not their league, not their Cub-like history of futility, not even the insufferable fans, it is the fucking state's name, that's what I really hate.

Rangers can't afford to lose Ogando with that shaky pen.

I wouldn't want to bet on keeping them scoreless, but I'm happy to see it.

roadrunner · « **Reply #15 on:** October 31, 2010, 09:18:38 pm »

I don't mind either team. There really isn't one player on either team that I particularly despise, so I've decided to root for the Giants mainily because I like Posey a lot, they're an NL team, and I don't want the Rangers to become another annoying franchise for the DFW fanbase.

How awesome was that couple's high-five in slow motion in the seats behind home plate?

Gizzmonic · « **Reply #16 on:** October 31, 2010, 09:29:55 pm »

Hey, what do the NFL and Brokeback Mountain have in common?

They both feature Cowboys that suck!

Did anyone go to the WS games in Houston? If so, do you mind saying how much you paid for tickets? Just wondering because my inlaws are at the game tonight, and they say they paid $500/ticket. I seem to remember looking online during the Astros Series and seeing $2000/ticket and up.

Incredible performance from a guy who is just barely 21.

I went to game 4 and had tickets for game 5. for some reason i'm thinking they were 125/each in section 330 something.

Ron Brand · « **Reply #24 on:** October 31, 2010, 10:31:17 pm »

Maybe Fox was right about the winner of Game 4.

Fuck the metroplex right in the goatass, but "Texas Rangers" is a kickass team name, sorry.

They could be the "Dallas Texans", ya know.

I went and paid $125/ticket. That was face value, and was set by MLB.

I don't have a problem with just the name. But, as the junior team and 2nd team in the state, they were being giant dicks by assuming the mantle of the "states" team. I thought that the day they announced the name.

Alkie · « **Reply #30 on:** November 01, 2010, 08:59:19 am »

Seems to me, we spent something like $800/ticket for Game Three and $300/ticket for Game Four, but I could totally be making that up.

Astroholic · « **Reply #31 on:** November 01, 2010, 09:10:23 am »

I spent 300 for SRO. I did not win the lottery.

Ty in Tampa · « **Reply #32 on:** November 01, 2010, 09:11:11 am »

In '08, we paid $225 apiece for lower box outfield along the 1st base line, about 15 rows up. I also got high upper deck about the same area for $100. Both face value.

Andyzipp · « **Reply #33 on:** November 01, 2010, 09:14:17 am »

I paid $185 in 2005 for a field box seat in section 109.

Game 3 I paid $800 for two tickets. Game 4 I paid $0 for two tickets.

Yeah, I had already bought my Game 4 tickets. My friend who I dragged along at the last minute bought a seat in 419 for $13.

A friend of mine used to date a girl who worked in promotions for Fox and she hooked us up with the two comps. The price wasn't lack of market.

In from the "no one gives a shit" department, sunday night football had better overnight ratings than the world series.

OregonStrosFan · « **Reply #39 on:** November 01, 2010, 10:49:45 am »

2 tickets for Game 1 in Chicago (approx 15 rows up behind first base) cost me $0.00 (although I did have to spend about $700 for a plane ticket and $150 for hotel). Gotta love happy ex cleints with connections!
