Nevermind the guy behind home plate in the Astros jersey screaming random names - that's just my father communicating with his grandkids.
We are streaming the game to the Upper East Side - we are truly living in the modern age of communications
I just lost my stream here in the jungle. On a perpetual “commercial break, your game will resume shortly.”
I've had that happen, you might need to go back to the select game screen and restart.
See you in mid-November. Hope you packed your malaria meds.
More worried about dengue.
Sounds like everybody needs to start worrying about typhoid.

Meanwhile, the Rockets are down by 18 with 5 min to play.
They're stinkin' the joint up.
They don't have the heart of a champion. It's the one thing they're missing.
Is that Tony Sipp on the hill for the ninth?
That first championship heart didn't start beating until they went to Phoenix down 0-2. That despite a 58 win (then franchise record) season. So we'll see how this crew handles things. I have my doubts, but that may simply be because my brain can't comprehend that this is what basketball has become.
What it’s become? A game about ball movement...dribbling, passing, and shooting? This is the golden era of professional basketball.
Yeah, Keuchel wins his first of the year after getting a sum total of 4 runs of support over the previous 4 starts.
I don't dislike the current game, it's just different, No post play and mid range jumpers are anathema. Rockets set the record for 3 point attempts multiple times this season and were correct in doing so.
When they allowed tackling in the game it changed things, but not for the better. I love basketball and will probably always watch it but a lot of things drive me crazy about the NBA.
Allowed tackling?
Hard fouls and 'earn them at the line' have always been a part of basketball. But in the modern game, players are allowed to wrap up players (tackle them) and not even try to make a play on the ball. Pin the arms and hold them down. I know that NBA and FIBA rules are different but a fundamental of the game is you are not supposed commit fouls, that’s why it is called a foul I guess. I haven’t seen any ‘hack-a-player’ lately, that shit just about makes my head explode, maybe because I am old enough to remember when ‘intentional fouls’ were a thing.
Oakland's Manaea just no hit the BoSox.
