I predict they’ll get Charley Pride to sing the National Anthem for Game 3. He may even throw out a first pitch as well, he’s been a big Ranger fan for years, and he’s also a part owner.

COWBOYS WHO????

Mark Davis, an area talk show host (rather RINOish but occasionally insightful) had a good line a few days back:

All the Cowboys have to is declare bankruptcy and get Wade Phillips to start doing blow...and they'll be successful too.

We’re so damn confused here in Arlington, we’ve never done this before so we tried to act like other cities do and decided to riot and loot. My whole neighborhood just charged into the Wal-Mart and we all bought Big Screen TV’s......I’m not sure we did it right.

That's one of the things about the Rangers now.. they are owned by a bunch of fans and former players, not just investors. Can you get much more Texas than a baseball team owned by Nolan Ryan, Charlie Pride, Ron Washington, Chuck Greenberg & Eddie Chiles?

A good series, and a great win tonight--especially the game ending A-Rod strikeout.

Oh, how sweet was that to see A-Fraud be the last out?! Woo Hoo!

What was the deal with the talking head dressed in purple? He looked like a goofy pimp.

Oh that's Craig Sager, TBS and TNT sportscaster. We've seen him over the years on TBS during the baseball post-seasons. He's well-known for his wacky pimp-like outfits! Have you seen his yellow and orange suits? The guy's a piece of work... LOL.

I loved how one of the Rangers targeted him in the club house after the win and doused him with champagne. Then Sager came back for another interview (with pitcher Cliff Lee) and the player (I don't know who it was) shouted: "I'm still here, Sager!" ...and doused him again! He was completely wet and disheveled while interviewing Lee. LOL

Oh, this is just too sweet! I've seen far too many dips-t kids walking around my neighborhood with sideways Yankkee hats on.

I can't stand these morons - not one of them can tell you the Yankee lineup, let alone anything about the team.

I've met any number of dingbat New York girls in Boston for college cheering on the Yankees who can't name one player other than ‘ Like....um...Derek Jeter ‘.

Rot in hell Yankees.

Let’s not be rash. One of my favorite FReepers is a Yankees girl deep in the heart of Texas. Let’s show her some love. ;->

‘I thought the Yanks were playing Loser Ball when they issued two intentional walks in the 7th, and it backfired on them anyway.’

Never would have happened if Steinbrenner was still alive.

I have nothing but respect for the Yankee organization. It’s great to beat the best. Steinbrenner was a good man (and a big UF Booster),

I thought for sure you would say Sager's painful outfits were a careful distraction from his bad rug. I guess everyone needs a gimmick.

I’m a Yankee fan for life but these last two months, we’ve sucked! Meanwhile, I hope GWB throws out the first pitch like a real man should I’m thrilled for the Rangers and hopefully they win it all!

Heh. Wonder how many of us here on FR get that?

I switched right over to "Diamond Talk" right at the end of the game. I liked Norm's segment since he had such a long run with the Rangers on HSE back in the day.
