I see from skimming through the FL (finally) that there is some excitement over some baseball game.

Obviously, I'm not a sports fan.

But the sheer level of excitement of people's entries has been highly entertaining me, and even though I have no idea what's just happened (something to do with the Red Sox winning something?), I love the FL and am vicariously excited by all the capital letters going round.

See here for brief explanation.

Ooohhhh I see. That makes a lot more sense now.

Cool.

Try living near it. I knew when the game ended even though I didn't watch it. Horns blared, screams were heard (the good kind). I was expecting the ammo dump to go up. It's great. Tomorrow people will smile more.

Except for poor Yankees fans. There is no joy in mudville from them, because the YANKEES SUCK!!!!!!

I love living in New England.

I somehow manage to miss all the sports to-do, except possibly the South Koreans in the World Cup.

Same here...I see 'baseball' and my eyes immediately slide to the next posting as I think 'wasn't all that overwith weeks ago?' but then I always think that about football, and it turns out there is still months of it ahead. That one never seems to come to an end.

I don't understand football at all, but that's probably because I am the annoying person who doesn't understand the rules and interrupts every time someone cheers to ask, "What? What just happened?"

Oh well.

Well, except the Olympics. I watch the Olympics avidly.

I know just what you mean. I actually didn't care who won the game, but it's sweet to see people so excited and happy about the Sox win.

I, er, had no idea the game was going on, or that it was exciting and kind of historic ;).

But I love the general excitement.

Heh, d00d, I knew it was on mainly because I mainline CNN and through my newslist. Otherwise, de nada....

Re: no joy in mudville

[oyceter]

Yeah... I sort of had some inkling once the excited posts started pouring in. Then I figured maybe I should check the NYTimes ;).
