Met police have more powers but them royal mail lads have some swagger. They can show them boys in blue how to get the arse end out on a roundabout in the rain.

The Kansas City Royals came from behind to secure a 5-4 victory over the New York Mets in a dramatic opening game of the seven-match World Series.

So not a world series at all then. Does it really matter? You could say the same for the Rugby League World Cup considering it's only really Yorkshire & Australia play it to any kind of standard. |

Seem to recall the " World Series " tag had something to do with the newspapers who we around when these play-offs
were established in the late nineteenth century. So the tag has a historical basis not a tag based on the facts
of today.

Well done - an informative article.
Well we do play in the National South - names for leagues do come out of thin air.

Same as the people who claim American football is called football because the ball is a foot long I guess.

That is my usual response to said poster in general although I have never actually written it. Still he seems to have stayed away from the main forum a bit and lo and behold there seem to be more posters posting on it. |
