Re: Final Exit Polls: For Those Interested (none / 1)

Let's see, Celtics up at the half, Red Sox shutout the Tigers and Obama blew out HRC in NC. On the down side the Yankees are leading by one in the seventh and HRC is up by four in Indiana.

Not for New Yorkers born in Boston;) (aren't sports loyalties weird - I feel much more of a New Yorker than a Bostonian in everything except sports)

Re: Final Exit Polls: For Those Interested (none / 0)

Oh my. How do you manage that being a Boston guy, sportswise? I thought they could tar and feather you for that.

My sports loyalties are wholly a product of my dad, except in baseball (he has no team and I consider myself a lame Braves fan).

Re: Final Exit Polls: For Those Interested (none / 0)

I was out with friends for a bachelor party during game 4 of the ACLS that year the Sox came back from 0-3. Needing to check what was going on I stopped into a biker bar near the West Side highway. Cheered for my team, but all I got were a few evil looks mixed with a lot of faux sympathy. Might have been a bit different by game 7...

Re: Final Exit Polls: For Those Interested (none / 0)

I reckon they might've been none-too-pleased with you by game 7. That was a hell of a series, wasn't it? Again, not a baseball guy, but that was one I really got into. The Sox were a thing to see that year.

Re: Final Exit Polls: For Those Interested (none / 0)

It's allegedly going to be another hour before we get final word in Indiana. Obama apparently stormed Gary, big turnout, which is why it's taking so long.
