The Washington Nationals are the World Series Champions

I would have preferred the Boston Red Sox were the World Series Champions but I'm glad it's not the Astros.

The Nationals deserved to win.

This will be quick because it's Halloween and the candy beggars are beginning to make their way around my neighborhood. Most of them are arriving in cars but I don't blame them for that. It's raining and windy out there.

And for the record, I picked all the $100,000 bars out of the bucket. I'm not giving those out to the little urchins. They can have all the peanut butter cups.

My daughters classmates are good people

Today was my daughters birthday and she spent it on one of her many rotations, taking care of people's pets. Her classmates found out it was her birthday and one of them brought in a cake.

A little celebration is a good thing when you are 1,300 miles from home.

The Bruins won last night and are now in first place in the Atlantic Division. They are in second place in the Eastern Conference, one point behind the Capitals.

They are now off until this Saturday when they will play the Ottowa Senators.

As for the World Series, the Nationals, won last night and forced a game seven. The amazing thing about this World Series is that no home team has won a game yet. All six games have been won by the visiting team.

That's kind of weird.

Go Nats!

Here are some links for you to look at:

• Well, duh...



• Oops.



• Hey, that's a lot of money to carry around. He just wanted to get it safely into a bank.



• Krazy Kim is still trying to get nuclear information.



• I'd like to read the police report on this one.

Steelers managed to squeak past the Dolphins

Last night's football game was a display of bad football.

It initially appeared that the Dolphins were going to beat the Steelers into the ground but apparently, once I went to bed, the Steelers decided to play some actual football and they overcame their deficit to win the game.

To be honest with you, it was a boring game to watch. I probably would have been better off watching some DVRs.

As for tonight, The Bruins are hosting the Sharks at 7:00 and the Astros are hosting the Nationals at 8:00.

I will be watching the Bruins play the Sharks and hoping that the Nationals beat the Astros.

Enjoy these links:

• Those things should be outlawed.



• Yes, the Japanese are the craziest people on the planet.



• I'm sure they're a lovely couple.



• Attention ladies: I know this may shock some of you but if you walk around with your girls hanging out, people will stare.

Let's look at some sports.

There is no baseball and no hockey tonight. There is a football game and since it's the Steelers, I may watch a little bit of it.

The Astros beat the Nationals last night and they are now in the lead 3-2 games. This is not how I wanted this to go.

The Bruins beat the Ranger last night, earning the two points and moving to one point behind the Sabres in the Atlantic division.

I think that's enough sports for today.

Now that we're done looking at sports, let's look at some links:

• They have a semi-problem.



• I would do this for Bud but not Bud Light



• There's gonna be a bunch of fat cats and dogs.



• Only in Florida.

World Series is tied at 2 games each.

I was really hoping the Nationals would finish off the Astros at home but that's not going to happen now. Depending on who wins tonight, one team will be going to Houston with a 3-2 lead.

I'm hoping it's the Nationals.

Go Nats!

The Patriots hosted the Browns at 4:30 this afternoon and it was raining pretty hard for the first half. Brady played pretty well considering the football was soaking wet.

I can't imagine holding on to a soaked football, never mind throwing one.

So anyways, the Patriots beat the Browns 27-10 giving them a 8-0 record at the halfway point in the season.

Not too shabby for a 42 year old quarterback.

⧫

The Bruins beat the Blues last night 3-0, picking up 2 points and giving them a 7-1-2 record & 16 points. This moves them within 3 points of the Sabres in the Eastern division.

They play the Rangers at 7:00 tonight and if they win, they pick up 2 more points and be within easy striking distance of the Sabres.

So now I'm going to watch some hockey. I'm hoping to watch all three periods of the game before I fall asleep but chances are slim of that happening.

It's good to have stretch goals but I'm also a realist.

While I do that, you can do these:

•  This is Double Top Secret so don't tell anyone.



• It's a car-catching rock.



• This whole "gender reveal" thing is the dumbest thing I've seen since the Pet Rock.



• I take that back. This is the dumbest thing I've seen since the Pet Rock.



• Oh Canada.
