For me, I can't believe I actually go to see the Yankees and Mets in the World Series in my lifetime. Now Yanks fans (like myself) can go bashing Mets fans after we kick their butt. :)

I do care but can't watch because it's on @ 2 AM live and they rerun it @ 3 PM, no way Jose, on a weekday. :( I hope it will last till the weekend.

Yikes! Three Kids and a Wife. Sounds difficult!

The TV isn't for me actually. It's for the Television department, but it just happens to be right next to my desk at work. :)

You're doing the testing for them, right ? ;) It's not that difficult with two TV sets, but imagine me coming home @ 6 PM doing 2 hours of Heavy Metal F.A.K.K 2 or Q3A after that watch Baseball and off to bed.....
I guess I wouldn't live long enough to see the end of the subway series.

That's true. The games usually don't end till about 12:00EST and depending on where you live, that could be late. Yup, I'm testing the TV, VCR, and the cable box whenever there is a sporting even on or Dark Angel (jessica alba :))

That's exactly what the manufacturers use to stress-test their equipment. I can see you know what you're doing. ;) It's like RC5 for CPU's, if it's stable @ sports and Dark Angel it's always stable. :D

It's been providing a year of good service and counting for me and the television crew that occasionally uses it. :) Damn, are we the only two people up at this hour?! heh

Obviously not. ;) What do you mean, at this hour ? It's 12:54 PM(where I live), aren't you supposed to be awake @ that time of a weekday ?

sorry, but ever since the players' strike I've pretty much lost all interest in major league baseball. Still very much enjoy going to the city games and seeing people play ball because they love the sport rather then getting X million dollars.

................so who's in the series this year???? :p

As a Braves Fan It's hard to care. I think it's good for baseball so I kinda make myself care. I have alot of respect for the Yankee's tradition but their behavior this year is getting on my nerves a bit. I never thought I would pull for the Mets in this series but I am.

If I was a NY fan than it would be awesome. The energy in the city has to be huge. But I am not a NY fan so I couldn't give a rat's ass.

i'm in NY, so that's the reason why i'm asking... just wanted to get a feel if anybody else outside of the city really cared. heh. i do wonder about clemens and piazza though... seems like there is some bad blood.
