Re: I watched 2 of those classic games this last week...

I was MORE than pleasantly surprised. I thought I'd get bored after a while, knowing the outcome... but that turned out NOT to be the case. It was darn near as good as 'live'.

I know what you mean. A couple of weeks ago we watched game 6 of the 3011 World Series (considered time be an MLB classic) and game 5 of the 2006 World Series. Even though we watched those games As they occurred live, watching them again was just as thrilling. It has been so long since we last saw those games that watching them again we saw and heard things we swore we'd never seen or heard before. So that made it fun. Throughout both games we kept saying "I don't remember that!" We knew the outcomes, too, but it was still exciting to watch as we were often on the edge of our seats.
