To Bill Roper

World Series.

I will cheer for the Cubs if you cheer for the Blue Jays - for both to get to the World Series.

I am happy to cheer for the Blue Jays.

I will be less ambivalent about the Cubs in another couple of days. :)

You have my condolences. Of course I was rooting for the Cubs, but I understand that the Cardinals were pretty beat up. Things might have been different if they had been healthy.

[billroper]

Thanks. The last two injuries (Martinez and Molina) were the killers, I think.

I'm in. I love the Blue Jays.

I can remember the first time the Jays won, on Oct. 24, 1992 (a Sat.). Judith & I were in the OVFF hotel. I went up to our room to catch the last few innings. And the result - WOW.

I watched at home in 1993 (Oct. 21 - a Thursday) when Joe Carter hit a 3 run homer, in the 9th.

I have been to only one Blue Jays game. I took Mike Whitaker to the opening in 2010 (the Monday after he was inducted in to the Filk Hall of Fame)

During 1997-9, I was in Montreal, for work and went to a few Expos games.

Last night's game - was unbelievable.

Thank you to those who say they support "our" (Canada's) Jays.

We took in a game shortly after I famously proposed to the_sheryl from a point about a thousand feet above Rogers Center. Though I think she may have spent more time staring at her hand than watching the game. And giggling every few minutes.
