The late, late, late show (continued)

We have a winner: Colorado Rockies over the Arizona Diamondbacks for a berth in the World Series. The result is posted at Bradenton.com.

Did you watch Game 4 of the NLCS to its conclusion? It ended after 1:30 a.m. our time, which was a far sight better than Friday night's Game 2. That one started at 10:12 p.m. and ended at 2:46 a.m.

And to the point made earlier about nobody watching baseball that late at night: Game 2 set a television low with a 2.2 national rating -- that's less than half of the previous lowest-ever rating for a league championship series game played in prime time.

The Rockies, who have won 21 of their last 22 games, appear to be an amazing story. Unfortunately, a lot of fans haven't been paying attention. Of course TV now has eight days off to hype them -- the World Series isn't scheduled to begin until Oct. 24.

Maybe we'll all be caught up by the time the Fall Classic finally begins in either Boston or Cleveland.

WHY THE BRADENTON HEARLD ENDORSES I DON'T KNOW. IT IS A KNOWN FACT THAT THE BRADENTON HEARLD NEVER KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT. THEY PRINT LIES AND COVER-UP THE TRUTH. WHY SHOULD THEY BE THE ONES PEOPLE HAVE TO RELY ON FOR INFORMATION. I THINK THAT PEOPLE SHOULD DO THEIR OWN RESEARCH. TALK WITH THE CANDIDATES THEMSELVES AND ASK ANY QUESTIONS THEY NEED ANSWERS TO. THE BRADENTON HEARLD ONLY PRINT WHAT THEY WANT, NOT WHAT THE PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW. THEY PRINTED THAT REV. GOLDEN WAS NOT OVER THE APARTMENTS IN WHICH ELDERLY PEOPLE WHERE LIVING HORRIABLY, BUT THEN GOLDEN REPLIED AND SAID HIS CHURCH WAS OVER THE APARTMENTS AND THE MONEY THEY RECIEVE FROM THE TEANTS, IS WHAT HE USE TO PROVIDE FREE CHILD CARE SERVICES AND AFTERSCHOOL SERVICES FOR LOW INCOME FAMILIES. NOW YOU TELL ME WHO IS THE OWNER. I JUST FEEL THAT PEOPLE OF POWER AND AUTHORITIES SHOULD NOT BE THE ONE TO SUGGEST ANYTHNG. I ALSO FEEL THAT IF YOU DON'T LIVE IN THE CITY YOU SHOULD NOT PUT YOUR TWO CENTS IN EITHER (LIKE THE MAJORITY OF THE FIRER FIGHTERS). NOW ON THE OTHER HAND IF YOU LIKE GETTING INFORMATION FROM THE PAPER THEN READ THE HEARLD TRIBUNE,THEY CAN CARELESS WHO WINS AND HAVE NO FAVOR, JUST THE TRUTH...... SIGN CONCERNED CITIZEN
