My predictions -

New money takes 3 out of the 4 from the "Greatest Team in History"

Attendance numbers will favor the St. Louis stadium, but there will also be noticeably more Blue in the two games held in St. Louis than there will be Red in the two games held in KC.

Nobody will get shot from a grassy knoll at either stadium.

Royals will blow one game thanks to the bullpen and Matheny will blow one game on some bonehead management decision.

That about covers it.

At least you have a team you can predict.

My team is, until seen otherwise AND managed properly, a .500 team. If we ever actually bring up and field the best players who support its starting pitching, this might change.

Which brings up a simple request, if we can only win 1 game of the four, let it be the first one. We haven't made .500 in 6 attempts since June.

Dog,

I'll wager with you $100 the Royals win the series this week with Cards. If I win the bet, I want 5lb. of Sandhill crane steaks sent me via dry ice. Don't send any freezer-burned birds...

Otherwise no bet.

If you were not on the cafe until 99 you were not among the originals. I think I remember I was member #31... I know for sure it was 1997.

By 1999 you would have had 1000 or so in front of you....just saying.

You were, however, one of the original bird brai.....er.....watchers on there.

When I was a kid we had an old tractor tire in the backyard filled with sand to play in. It was next to the dog pen we kept our White German Shephard named Frosty in.

It was a big backyard compared to most these days.

So let me get this straight.........I'm supposed to pack 5 pounds of
Sandhill crane meat into a box I have to buy or a smaller cooler,
With dry ice, drive it from BFE Texas to a shipping center so I can ship it overnight to God knows where in Nebraska. Overnight Shipping $100 minimum. Find dry ice in Amarillo and buy it. $20 Drive to Amarillo to ship the damn stuff $50. Smaller cooler for ice and meat. $15. Food and drinks in Amarillo's since I'm there. $50. I'm well over $200 before I scout fields for a couple days putting 2-300 miles on my truck finding them and then finding the X where I have to be. Ghuille suits for 5-6 guys hunting @ $70 each . $400/dz for decoys @ 3-5 dozen out.

5 pounds of breasts meat would mean 3-5 birds, so now we are talking two days of hunting, because I sure as fork know no one I hunt with is sharing their limit birds to send to some flatlander from Nebraska. My time spent cleaning 3-5 birds and preparing them to ship.......................................all for the chance of winning $100??????!!???!!?????!!??? My first question is, how damn high are you?? If I wanted to spend literally days of my time for $100, I'd go back in time to 1989 where I worked baling hay and I was getting to fingerbang and try to fork the farmers daughter before and after work. I knew I was getting forked for cheap labor, but I was making up for it in beardedclam trading.

Add another zero to your figure Homer. $1000 for the series win vs 5 pounds of crane. I'll even send some shitty red wine that Bailey picks out to Pair with the cranes. I'm gonna chill the chit out of that wine too, hoping it makes it taste worst than it is. So what say you big spender??? You get t o Piss away several days of my time for your bet or I get $1000.

If Carpenter is waking up from his 14 month nap this is a really bad time to be betting against the Cardinals.

Make up your damn mind. First we can't play. Then we can't win. Now we are going on a 20 game win streak because of Carp. Get on the bandwagon or get off. If you need help knowing how to do that, reach out to any of the west side bunch. They are quiet capable of showing you how to do it without getting hurt.

bwaaaaaaaaaaaaa..........I haven't made up my mind or should I change it like you every other day?

You still want Diaz at short? bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Get over yourself dude. You ain't that smart.

And since you don't believe in "stepping up" in sports ......bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..........why bother?

This team HAS the potential, HAS the horses......but play more like a horses ass better part of the year.

Yeah, that's it, they need to "step up".....maybe they can add the great infield tandem of Steen and Statsny.

Dog,

You'll hunt crane regardless of the bet. Mebbe 3# of crane would be more fair. Keep the wine, thanks anyway.

Dog,you rich. Don't you want my $?

I'll even cover the shipping cost dog. It ain't that much.

Royals down a game, got to win the next 3 for me to collect. Easy money, and I don't mind droppin' a c-note to you. Hell, Yer entertaiment value alone is worth it!
