Re: Totally OT: YAY CUBS!!!
Uhhhhh. I'm 30 min from Cleveland.... Go Indians!!!
But really, I'm a cross stitcher first, sports fan second, so of course if the Cubs win I'll be happy for you.
But as the World Series hasn't started yet.... GO INDIANS lol

Re: Totally OT: YAY CUBS!!!
Baseball?
Like softball?
Oh. Yes I remember now. The World Series of North America (or have the Toronto Blue Jays been chucked out for daring to be a winning non-US team? It looked as if might happen last time I heard of this 'World Series' in 1987).
Good luck to the Cubs in their bid for world domination of.. Rounders, was it? I always cheer the underdog.
I wonder if I should start cheering the England cricket team after their hugely unlikely win. Not sure if I can manage more than 2 cheers for their performance.
Regards
Richard.

Well we are cheering for Cal Crutchlow British rider from Coventry.
He's just won the Australian Moto GP. First Brit to win there and only the 2nd Brit to win two GPS in a year since Barry Sheene. Amazing race especially as the conditions on Phillip Island have been dreadful this weekend.

I used to cheer Shaky Byrne - the only famous person ever to come from the town I live near. However since MotoGP has migrated onto one of the minor channels I tend to miss it, and have completely lost track of the championship.
Well done to Cal Crutchlow though.
Regards,
Richard.

Re: Totally OT: YAY CUBS!!!
I was SO happy to see the Cubbies win - I've always liked them and have always hated the Dodgers. (The Angels are my #1 team and the Rockies my #2 - sad, sad season for me.) I also like the Indians - that started because for awhile, we (the Angels) let a lot of talented players go to the Indians - and my daughter-in-law is from Ohio, which is a definite plus on the Indians side. But I like the Cubs because Maddon used to be with the Angels and he's a class act.
So, I think I'll be good with either team winning because I just cant decide who I want. (I'm having the same decision-reaching problem with one of the races on my voting ballot - it's ready to be mailed, as soon as I make that one last decision.)
I just read this - some good points here:
