Poll: GameThreads for all other postseason games?

by Randy Booth on Oct 6, 2009 9:11 PM EDT in News

Dear Over The Monster Faithful,

Simple question: would ya'll like to have GameThreads for all the other postseason games? It's really no problem for me to set them up, it's just an issue if you guys want to talk about the games.

Here's a quick poll. Fill it out using a No. 2 pencil and submit it. No cheating.

Do you want OTM to have GameThreads for every MLB postseason game?

Yes, I'll most likely participate

No, I won't participate in non-Sox GameThreads

Not sure what I'll do, but I think it's a good idea

For example...

I just checked the score of the Twins/Tigers “post season” game and would like to see what people are saying or perhaps say something myself.

This game could be a classic.

Agreed.

I'll join in if I can.

Would be nice – perhaps even just a general thread for other games of the day.

And boy am i glad

The better team moves on to wear out the Yanks a little for us, hopefully.

Buzzy posted a comment showing how the Tigres match up better.

Hence my anger.

Buzzy is right

I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.

I would suggest a "Wednesday Game Thread" for instance

And then a separate one for the Sox games of course.

This.

"Fill it out using a No. 2 pencil and submit it. No cheating."

Reminds me of the LSAT, which I took two weeks ago. Except there they ban cellphones, pagers, all electronic devices, and you have to get fingerprinted. And you can’t leave to go to the bathroom unless escorted by a proctor. And if you drop the soap in the shower, you better not pick it up…

Off-topic, but not far off topic from yours

Have you taken the GRE?…

No. Only the LSAT, SAT, PSAT and ISEE.

I do know the GRE has a math component, and that aside from maybe Library Science, getting a grad degree doesn’t make one more attractive to employers (especially PhDs, which actively hurt one’s job search).

Why? Feeling the need to abandon your burgeoning journalism career and go back to school?

Back on topic: I think other series threads is a good idea, but I’m not posting them.
