World Series Game 2: Who wants to rock?

And we're off with a clumsy combination of FOX cross-promotion and patriotism -- Kiefer Sutherland, Barack Obama and John McCain? What the bloody hell is this? It's Game 2 of the 2008 World Series!

Anyway, I'm joined at the BMFS Live-in Shoebox by the same (refilled) mostly empty bottle of water, three smokes left from yesterday's half-pack, official T!!! co-mascots Grover and Pidgie, and my new Obama/Biden-branded BumperNutz, which, later on tonight, I will affix to the tow hitch on my Texas-tagged Volvo LiberalMobile.

The telecast has begun, yet it will still be another half-hour 'til the actual game. So, in a pointless ritual of superstition, I shall go about recreating everything in the BMFS Live-in Shoebox exactly as it was 24 hours ago, even if it involves stapling a 17-pound long-haired male cat to the ottoman.

Meanwhile, I will be viewing the Dallas Stars' likely-hilarious attempts to kill off a four-and-a-half-minute 5-on-3.

And wishing I had a '73 Valiant like a tr00 pimp. My family used to have a '73 Scamp (metallic brown!), which was basically a four-door Duster, and it was a heap of junk.

I think you knew things weren't going to go exactly like last night when the Stars not only killed off the entire 20 minute 5-on-3, but then Ribeiro went on to score 5 points and the Stars whpped up on DiPietro and the Fishsticks. Bad omen there for the Phils.
