Yeah the first half was a little slow, but we had fun. We had great seats, we actually sat behind Pat Shurmer's wife and family. They were really cool, we just had to watch what we said about the play calling and suchNot the most exciting game for you so far.
This World Series is absolute bonkers. Unbelievable games.

They were REALLY trying to get everyone in the stadium, I suppose to make it look good for TV. The bars outside the stadium in the tailgate area closed like an hour and a half before the game started, and they started making announcements that you could buy beer in the stadium, haha.
It was a really cool experience! If the Vikings come back here in 3-5 years, I f see myself doing it again!
I think it's essentially non existant. Mainly because these stadiums are literally packed into neighborhoods. Like from the train station, you're walking through a residential area and then all the sudden, boom, stadium.Wow, that is a lot of dead time before a game. I couldn't imagine that going over well for a Badgers, Brewers, or Packers game in WI. How big of a deal is tailgating in England?

So there aren't big parking lots or anything to tailgate in. They had a makeshift one set up just outside the stadium with events going on, and a couple bars, but yeah they mainly wanted everyone to get in and drink inside the stadium.
Apparently there is a feeling amongst players that the WS balls are different. Shinier( perhaps a top coat to keep the logo intact longer?), and with a tendency to flatten out breaking pitches.
I've seen lots of ugly swings resulting in long balls being hit, and it seems like pitchers can't control their ball, or throw an effective slider. I think it's ridiculous baseball, myself. 5+ hour games? Really?
The balls are totally jacked - I totally believe that. If that means they are "shiny" or whatever the HR total is just absurd and I wouldn't for a second put it past the powers that be that it's a scheme to get more eyes on the TV.
That Springer HR that still hasn't come down - well I guess it was "just" a coincidence it hit a fireworks thingy and turned to dust. Ok. That dust still hasn't settled he creamed that thing so bad.
The Wolves are 7-3. I honestly am shocked. Two of those wins against OKC.
Bradford is quite easily the best of the three, but yeah... it's too bad he's almost never healthy. If Teddy's still in this team's plans, I don't see any way they bring Bradford back next year.So with Bradford on IR, and Teddy back activated, how good does Spielman look for not giving Bradford a contract? I remember some public pressure for us to sign Sam in the offseason.
He's a fantastic receiver. He's finally starting to get some more credit as one of the better receivers in the league. This game certainly confirms Teddy won't be seeing the field for another week.Thielen is insane.
