Payback time for the Dodgers#
  • Well we know who the Mets are facing, starting tomorrow, in the National League championship series. #
  • Last time we played the Dodgers in the postseason we kicked their ass. And now they have the nerve to show up again. Geez some people never learn. #
  • And we haven't forgotten how Chase Utley broke Rubin Tejada's leg, deliberately, basically ending his major league career. We thought he should have been arrested for that, no kidding -- it was a vicious un-baseball assault. He and the Dodgers showed no remorse. #
  • The only payback that matters is victory.#
  • Update: The Jankees are playing Cleveland in the ALCS, and while some people with limited imaginations wish for a Subway Series betw the the two NY teams, I do not. I have a rule, I always root for the team the Jankees are playing. Thus I hope to see a World Series between the Mets and so-called "Guardians." And of course the Mets would be heavily favored in that contest because the Cleveland team has changed their name to something impossible to pronounce, ethically. When you change your name, like tearing down your stadium (something that took the Mets a long time to recover from) you basically put a hex on your team making it virtually impossible for your philosophy to prevail. So Mets v Guardians, while not necessarily what I predict, rather is something I hope for, and as long as the game is played with philosophy, that's the real victory! So get em METS and never forget there's always next year. ❤️#

You know those obnoxious sites that pop up dialogs when they think you're about to leave, asking you to subscribe to their email newsletter? Well that won't do for Scripting News readers who are a discerning lot, very loyal, but that wouldn't last long if I did rude stuff like that. So here I am at the bottom of the page quietly encouraging you to sign up for the nightly email. It's got everything from the previous day on Scripting, plus the contents of the linkblog and who knows what else we'll get in there. People really love it. I wish I had done it sooner. And every email has an unsub link so if you want to get out, you can, easily -- no questions asked, and no follow-ups. Go ahead and do it, you won't be sorry! :-)
