What up, sports fans!  Tonight, Life of Dad is having our very first LIVE chat.  Tommy Riles here, and I’ll be giving constant updates on what I’m thinking about the game.  Humorous, serious, everything.  But I want YOU to be involved too.  Leave comments of what you are thinking about the game on Life of Dad’s Facebook page, and I’ll post them here, on our LIVE chat.  Let’s go!

4:45PM PST  Watching pre-game coverage while drinking a cheap “Simpler Times” beer from Trader Joes.  Wife and baby are at a Halloween Party, so I’ll be able to focus on the start of the game!  What are you doing right now?  What are you drinking?

4:55PM PST  Daughtry singing.  He looks kind of like a white Albert Pujols.

5:01PM  Joe Buck has a clef in his chin.  I was once on an elevator with Tim McCarver, and he was wearing a cowboy hat.  Both true stories.

5:05PM  Chris Carpenter on the mound.  Impressive beard.  First pitch.  Ball 1.

5:08PM  Big double play, followed by a walk.  Josh Hamilton’s up.  What a story he is.  Heavy addiction problems, and then he hit that bomb last night.  Run scoring double, Rangers in the lead.  Carpenter not looking sharp.

5:11PM  Michael Young with a big hit.  2-0 Texas is in the lead.  Young is a great player.  I recently read a great article comparing Young and Derek Jeter.  Similar numbers, similar leadership skills, one of them is on the Yankees.  By the way, Jeter was born in my hometown, Pequannock, NJ!  Read the Young/Jeter comparison here.

5:14PM  Rangers up by two runs.  Sound familiar?

5:17PM  Watched a Taco Bell commercial, and just texted Lucy asking if she’ll make a run for the border on their way home.  I could go for a chalupa.

5:23PM  The Freese man is up for the first time after his HUGE night last night…they love him in St. Louis.

5;27  DAVID FREESE IS A PIMP!  Two run scoring double, which ties it up in the first.  It’s gonna be a long game.

5:28 (JASON PUGSLEY COMMENT)  Big hit by Freesey!

5:28  I don’t like Yadier Molina.  He quietly hit a go-ahead homer in game 7 of the 2006 NLCS against the Mets, which broke my heart.  And he almost just hit another home run.  Caught at the warning track.

Allright…our awesome web developer, Ryan Hamilton, just implemented a real LIVE chat.  This chat is no longer… Join us here:  https://www.lifeofdad.com/worldseries.php
