Score board watching

Here's the thing. Kershaw is currently scheduled to pitch Saturday, which would line him up for Game 1 of NLDS on Thursday. He would not be available to pitch in the tie break game, and would still be available for Game 1. Beuhler is scheduled to go Sunday. He's their likely game 2 starter. So if it comes down to a 1 game playoff, they will likely have to go with Stripling. They'd still be lined up fine for the NLDS.

What I really want to see is the Rockies/Dodgers/Cards all tied at the end of the season. Therefore you get your 1 game playoff for the NL West. The loser plays the Cards to get the 2nd WC spot.

That would be cool. How is homefield determined?

I would be very interested to see what MLB would do in that scenario because there would be 3 games before the NLDS could begin, yet right now the WC game is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 2. and the NLDS begins Oct. 4.

So would they push the WC game back to Oct. 3 to allow for games on the 1st and 2nd? Or would they try some kind of insane double-header? I have to imagine they would just push the WC game back.

Jonah Hill played Paul DePodesta.

Plus, black actors need to be cast more, and if we remain intent on only casting lookalikes for non-fiction success stories, black actors will continue to be out of work.

I wish I had unlimited cash for a number of reasons.

One would be that the next time I hear hollywood say the term "whitewashing," I would green light a movie about the writing of the Constitution and establishment of the Government where all the characters are different races than they were in reality.

You know: Washington, Franklin and Jefferson - black guys
John Adams - Chinese
John Hancock - Japanese (his signature would be a Kanji Haiku)
John Jay - Arabic
Alexander Hamilton - Undetermined
Samuel Adams - Irish (oh, wait?)

It's all comedy to me, especially the fact that so many can't see that there's money, influence and power to be gained by keeping racial tensions alive.

So, like, a movie version of Hamilton.
 
Rockies up 3-1 in the 6th. They would have a 1 game lead entering the weekend. Rockies play the Nats while the Dodgers play the Giants.

I have a feeling LA will need to sweep.

If Colorado holds on today I like their chances a lot better, partly because Bumgarner is going in game 1 vs the Dodgers and the Giants while terrible might be able to take one game. That might be enough.
