Nice! :up:
I don't know how to hide big pictures in the "spoiler"
Anyway, everyone here is excited about this Wednesday's wild card game.
I'm glad it's in Pittsburgh, I don't think the Pirates would have a chance if it were at San Fran.
This is the second year in a row the Pirates have been in the wild card game.

Do you have any memories of the 1971 NLCS? I have no memories since I was only three years old.
I remember it a little bit. I was really into baseball cards back then, and I was worried about Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, and Bobby Bonds. I played Minor League Baseball that summer, and my glove was a Bobby Bond's glove.
I remember Bob Robertson hit 3 home runs in one of the games, but most of all I remember that song, because we sang it everyday for a week, and it was a local beer commercial on TV all the time leading up to the series, and during the series.
In case you didn't know, the song was a parody from the following song:
| California Here I Come | |
Well.....you got it.
It wasn't even close, Madison Bumgarner pitched like an ace.
Hope your Giants do well against the Nationals.

Lots of memories of Willie Startrek in 1979, we are family
The Pirates, "your" Pirates-losers, like Preterists, like you, Craigie.
Do you know how many World Series Championships both teams from Texas have combined?
ZERO!!!!
Texas is to World Series Championships, what Ohio is to Super Bowl trophies.
I grew up in St. Louis, punk. I've been to more Cardinal games, than those sap Pirates have won(which isn't many).
Any other questions, loser?
"teams"
That would exclude the Pirates in our conversation, sweetie, "teams" being the operative word. Can you dig it? Good.
Any other questions, loser?
As a franchise the Pirates have won 10,143 games. Only 6 franchises have won more games
If you went to every Cardinal's game (including the away games and the post season games), it would have taken you about 63 years to go to 10,143 Cardinal games.
You ain't that old.
