Opps! Philly Paper Jumps Gun on World Series

PHILADELPHIA (Nov. 2) - A Philadelphia newspaper has apologized to readers for mistakenly running an ad congratulating the Philadelphia Phillies on winning back-to-back World Series titles.

The Yankees held a commanding 3-1 lead in the championship as of Monday, the day the ad was printed in the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The three-quarter-page Macy's ad is on the back of the front section and features a T-shirt with the Phillies logo, the commissioner's trophy and the phrase "Back To Back World Series Champions."

The Inquirer released a message to readers saying the paper deeply regrets the error.

Karan Thapar interviewing Chairman of IPL Lalit Modi

Indian Premier League or IPL as its most commonly known has clearly changed the scope, reach, face and impact of cricket as a game in a country (India) where the same game is also referred to as a second religion for many.

The reasons for the league being loved are different for different batches of people. Some like it for its format, some enjoy the same because its great entertainment for a few hours, for some it might just be involvement of some of the famous and favorite celebrities and also for some maybe its just the love for the game of cricket. I'm not a big sports fan or a cricket fanatic but I do appreciate how the league has taken the country and also the world by the storm.

I found this video interview (read: verbose ;) ) on the website of CNN IBN. Here's Karan Thapar grilling (almost literally) Lalit Modi, who is the Chairman of IPL. I'd not tell you more about the four part interview besides that if you like cricket as a game and IPL as a format you'd not want to miss this one. Your comments on this four part video is anticipated. I'm sure fans, viewers and people who do enjoy watching interviews would have at least something to say after they're done watching this one.

プロ野球日本シリーズ Baseball World Series in Japan

Many people are "freezed" or taken their souls to baseball infront of TVs in home electronics retailer. They don't move or I wonder if they breathe.

Baseball is like American Football or Soccer in Japan...big deal sports...To watch it, they stop working, walking and talking. They are just in a group and cloud to watch baseball.

Unbelievable!! My husband doesn't listen to me when baseball game is on TV. I cooked deliclious meal but he stopped using chopsticks to watch baseball. How about your husband???
