The Really, Really, Really Long World Series Game

I was going to talk about ****e standing me up Sunday afternoon, but it's now past 1:30 a.m. Tuesday morning as I type this, and Game 3 of the World Series is now in the 18th Inning.

I have railed (maybe not here on WAF) against Penalty Kicks in soccer and the Overtime rules in college football to determine a winner after regular time.  I hate them because the formats are so unlike how the Games were played up till then.  It's gimmicky and just a way to get the thing over with.  Well, this ain't over, not by a long shot.  I have to admit that I don't think the players playing now are playing well now that the Game is approaching the length of two Games (and I hope that sentence makes sense).  But this maintains the integrity of the baseball Game, no doubt.  Hey, at least there isn't a ghost runner like there is in the regular season nowadays.  And I have to say that I want to know, for my own self, that I stayed up till the wee hours in the morning to watch arguably The Longest Postseason Baseball Game In History.  And like I complained about before, I have to wake up at 5:30 because I work early today!
