2010 World Series: Rangers @ Giants

[VA Sox Fan]

They're even less annoying when I'm not watching.

 

[VA Sox Fan]

Your T.V isn't on mute? I'm not even paying attention to the commentary.

 

No but not really paying attention. It's amazing how tolerable they are when you aren't passionate about the game.

[VA Sox Fan]

TIM-MAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Congrats on the Roberto Clemente Award!!!!!

[VA Sox Fan]

Nevermind. McCarver just said something about Edgar getting a double play when no one was on base. 2004 "A walk is just as good as a home run" child please

[VA Sox Fan]

Cain is having a good night. As is CJ.

 

Pitching duel in game 2...imagine that.

 

Hits Rangers!

 

Did I spell duel incorrectly?

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

No, I think that's how you spell duel.

[VA Sox Fan]

Atta boy Edgar...dammit!

Duel vs Dual :dunno: LOL! Just making sure.

[Divinity]

Duel is used to describe a fight, meanwhile Dual means two

Thanks Divine one.

Cain is becoming the next big game pitcher. He's been dominant. If the Giants take the first 2, then I dont think the Rangers can recover vs their top 3.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Here come the Giants.

[jacksonianmarch]

Helluva game from Cain. Wilson coming in to close this thing out, the Giants are about to defend their home turf.

Rated lower than last yr and lower than 2008's Game 1. Sufficed to say, this WS is on pace to have the lowest viewership in recent memory, something I predicted if these two made it

Yeah, not too surprised. Rangers-Giants isn't exactly a marquee matchup for the casual viewer. Oh well, I'm still watching. All I want out of this series is for it to go back to San Francisco. Can't believe there hasn't been a Game 7 since 2001.

Texas bullpen fails.

Lmao and this is when I change the channel.

[redsoxrules]

god awfull decisions by Ron Washington in this game

Matt Cain is so awesome

Tim McCarver "Hamburgers were invented about seven miles from here (Arlington, Texas)".

 

Um, no Tim.....Ground beef patties were brought to Hamburg Germany by Russian merchants -200-300 years ago.

[Dipre]

Minced beef can be traced so far back as the 15th century, the "Hamburg steak" or ground beef patty was invented in Germany in the 18th century.

 

But the "Hamburger" or ground beef patty sandwich , which is what MCcarver was referring to, was invented in 1904 in Texas.

 

But thanks for the input.

[Spudboy]

So someone in Texas just decided to call it Hamburg?

 

That makes sense.

 

Google=Fail.

[Emmz]

Lol, so they take credit for the invention, since they put a bun on it? That's lame.

[Dipre]

Well unfortunately that's how patents work.

 

And US patent No. US3987718 agrees with me. But i'm wrong, and this is "google fail" since i wasn't alive when the patent claim was made.

 

Oh well, such is the life of whippersnappers such as MCcarver and me.

Mmmmmm Burger....

[a700hitter]

I thought the first place to serve a hamburger was in Connecticut. I saw it on the Travel Channel. It still exists.

Incorrect, it was created in the 1800's or some other time period when you were alive but i wasn't.

[a700hitter]

Incorrect' date=' it was created in the 1800's or some other time period when you were alive but i wasn't. [/quote']Here's a nice video on the Travel Channel's top 5 burger joints. The Eagle Deli in Boston is #2. The #1 place is Louie's in New Haven, Ct. which claims to be the birthplace of burgers in the U.S.
