The Friday Link for 10/24/25

Hi all! For all of those who have started reading these posts recently, I usually don't feature sports clips too often, but for the 2nd time in 3 weeks, the main one today has to do with baseball.

With the World Series here (Nothing against the Dodgers.  I actually like the Dodgers, but nothing would make me happier than watching Toronto win.  Trump would lose it!), let's revisit the greatest World Series ever played, 1991, Twins versus Braves.

I don't just say this because I am a recently suffering Twins fan, but because it actually was the best World Series of all time. I watched all of these games in the middle of the night in Germany.  I was stationed there in the military. My roommate Ben and I were the ONLY Twins fans there. So many of the military guys were rooting for Atlanta. 

Great pitching, great hitting, great fielding, and the greatest call of a sports play of all time ("We'll see you tomorrow night!"). This series had everything, but don't take my word for it.  The Jolly Olive has a breakdown of why exactly this is the best, and it might be a long time before we see another World Series that matches it. 

Also tonight, Mystery Science Theater 3000. I do feature them from time to time, and this video was linked to a story in the Minnesota Racket about the early days of the show. 

This video is 6 hours of PURE GOLD! Pod People, Manos: The Hands of Fate, Space Mutiny, and The Final Sacrifice could be the four best episodes of the show, period. This video is about the most quoted episodes, and they deliver.

Pick any place in this video and start watching. Enjoy! 

Have a great weekend! Make sure you get your flu shot and the latest COVID vaccine too.

I want you to be safe!
