Your World Series Game Seven Open Thread
Breathe in, breathe out. It's baseball time in America. Not baseball night, really, because it's Friday night, and no one assumed this series would continue to this Friday night. But you've cancelled your Friday night plans in hopes of watching this game, because this is One Of Those Games. ...

Rain kept them from playing last night, but it looks like everything's a go this evening in St. Louis. Colby Lewis is pitching for the Rangers, while Jaime Garcia is going for the Cardinals.

Your World Series Game Five Open Thread
C.J. Wilson hears the voices. How could he not? You hear them too, and you don't live inside C.J. Wilson's head. They're whispering that he can't get it done, that he isn't worth the $90 million he might earn in free agency. They're saying that he's nothing but Randy Wolf in New Age wrapping paper. ...

In his last appearance, St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Edwin Jackson ceded four earned runs (via three dingers), lasting just two innings in the NLCS.

Should the weather permit it to occur, the third game of the 2011 World Series will be played tonight. On the mound: Kyle Lohse (0-2, 7.45 ERA) vs. Matt Harrison (1-0, 4.22 ERA).

You will see lots of iso shots of both in their dugouts, perhaps talking to someone next to them, per...

Are you excited? Because we are excited. ("We" in this case refers to the Editor Emeritus of this webspace, who writes in that style, and not too many current staffers, because this series is to be played between two mostly uninteresting teams from the middle of the country that don't wear the right...
Your Dolphins-Jets Monday Night Football Open Thread
OK, we could go through the farce of pretending that this is an interesting game between two division rivals, and noting that although the Dolphins are 0-4, they've beaten the Jets in New York each of the last two years, and that Matt Moore is a semi-competent quarterback despite the lack of fanfare...
