I’m looking forward to this series. The Yankees and the dawyers ain’t in it and that’s a good thing.

I bet the network exec's are crying in their beer because it's not the Dodgers and the Yanks.

Maybe, but maybe not. Remember the much heralded Subway Series with the Mets/Yankees  few years back? Worst TV ratings in decades for a World Series.

That had two things going against it. 

First was that both teams came from the same rather small geographic area which limited nation wide interest. 

 

Second,  and I think more important, was that there was not a long standing rivalry between the two teams.  Mets are a fairly new team, only going back to the early '60s.

 

Yanks and Dodgers have a rivalry going for over a century, it would have been a west coast  v. eastern seaboard as well as a CA v. NY series. Wide national appeal,  even if nothing but to see the team you hate the most get stomped. 

 

This Series will be TX v. DC.  Symbolic of rugged individualism against the political machine.  Or Wild West against staid and stodgy Eastern Propriety.

Congrats to the Colt 45s.  Heck of an ALCS!

I won't watch any of the games because when I do, the Astros (or whoever I want to win)  lose.

Wow, what a game. Great play by Brantley and a fantastic 2 run walk off by Altuve. That little guy is amazing. Bring on the Nats.
