Probably fine. After all, the Cubs were bludgeoned into submission whereas they usually lose by inches in the big games (1984 and 2003 NLCS)

They not only lost, they got spanked...Me, I am holding up okay,,,,I guess........

I live in Southern Illinois, grew up close to St. Louis, so I am a very spoiled Cardinals fan. I was afraid that if the Cubs won the World Series that Chicago would burn to the ground in all the celebration rioting - and then that my state tax dollars would go to rebuilding the city after the Cubs championship even though I'm a Redbird fan. I can breathe a sigh of relief. For now. Because the Cubs are looking like they might be strong for several seasons to come.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but I just saw Larry Manetti on an episode of Emergency! this past week. I'm pretty sure it was him. He was a captain or somebody important on a boat that caught fire or something.

Yeh, it was Larry. It was episode 6 of season 6 - "Rules of Order" - November 1976.

Great to see Larry on occasion on the newer Hawaii Five-0

Sporting the team ring!

A bit of trivia for you....Larry's son, Lorenzo is also in the business, but behind the scenes. He has even been a writer's assistant on Hawaii FIVE-O and a few of the episodes had Larry starring in them.

As I was reading this post, the classic Five-O theme (an extended version) came on the radio. Damn, that was weird.

WOW!
What are the odds of that happening?
It's some sort of sign Styles!

Don't know if this has been posted before or not, but if it hasn't, for those not on FB here is an interview (of sorts) with Larry Manetti:

Thanks for posting. Interesting reading. Though not mentioned in the interview. Did I read somewhere that Larry and Robert Conrad were actually half brothers in real life ?

Happy Birthday, Larry....Hope you sneak on here occasionally to see if we are talking about you and your team ring appearances.....

I was doing some cleaning an look what I found!...
