Dilemma

My dilemma? Blue Bloods was playing on WGN America.  Texas Tech was scheduled to play against Oklahoma State in Big Twelve Football,  on ESPN2 and the World Series  is on Fox Sports Network.. 

I had decided to watch the Texas Tech game, and flip back to the World Series during breaks.  Some entity, Suddenlink  or Big Twelve or ESPN, in their infinite wisdom decided to air the Clemson vs. Georgia Tech game in the Lubbock area.  Well, that helped, actually.  I tried to load the football game on the laptop, but it kept saying "needs re-authentication" and I did not know what to do or how to proceed.  So, I loaded the football game on my IPhone and have the baseball game on the TV. I had to plug the phone in because the charge was so low, and I needed an extension cord to allow this. I had to change that configuration, because the first plug in was not charging the phone, but I got it to work with the second configuration I used.  

Am I able to pay good attention to either game, no.  But, I can go back and forth. And even if I do not keep up with the action, I can keep up with the scores.

World Series Baseball

So even though I am not a fan of the Chicago Cubs or the Cleveland Indians http://mlb.mlb.com/home, this is such an historic World Series, that I have been watching it.  As with the other games, the game tonight has been very good, and I am enjoying the suspense of it.  Wrigley Field is a neat place.  I like the way there are stadium seats on top of the buildings outside of the stadium. 

It seems that Wayne Messmer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayne_Messmer often sings the National Anthem at the opening of the Cubs games. And, during the 7th inning stretch, they have had celebrities lead the singing of "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" and showed the Harry Caray video of the same.  I am glad to see the Cubs fans count with their fingers when it is time to sing "it's one, two, three strikes you're out." 

If I had a preference, I would like to see the Indians win, because my favorite teams are American League teams.  Also, I would like to see Terry Francona https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terry_Francona win the series and end the Indians' World Series Championship drought, just as he did with the Red Sox.  Think of it, ending two long running World Series droughts by one manager! 

The Cubs one game 5!  It is awesome to see the fans continuing to sit in the stadium, chanting.  People are starting to move but slowly. 

I actually would like to see a 7 game series, because the baseball has been really, really good.  I will try to watch the game Tuesday.
