Does Anyone Have a Tape of Yesterday's Game (Game 7)?

If so, PLEASE let me borrow it to copy. If you have it on TiVO, PLEASE allow me to buy you a blank DVD or tape to make a copy. I'll also pay shipping and buy you a drink at the next CPF event. And if you were looking forward to smashing the tape into pieces, I can send it back to you after I make a copy.

For posterity? Because you are a masochist? Or were you caught on camera?

I wish you proposed this before the game. I coulda made the DVD 4 ya. That would be so kool if you were caught on tape during the game 88. Hope thats the case.

I have it on dvd, on four-hour speed. I could probably copy it on one of the newer desktops at work for you. I have a Pioneer dvd recorder, and for some reason some people can't see stuff I've recorded. I don't know if there is more than one format or if it has something to do with the speeds. We'll see if anyone else chimes in and if not remind me.

I still have it on my TiVo. I've already burned NLDS Games 1 and 3 to DVD, and I plan on saving NLCS Games 4 and 6, and maybe 1. I've been iffy on Game 7. Classic game, but lacks a happy ending.

The main reason I want it is Endy's catch plus all the reaction shots of the crowd. The second reason is that I have all the other 6 games plus the 3 on DVD (my TiVo for some reason decided not to inform me that I would run out of room when I set it for yesterday's game), so I want it for posterity. The third reason is that I have just a strange desire to have it, despite the loss. The fourth reason is that I want to remember being there. On that third one, part of me wants it because of the loss for some reason. not sure what's wrong with me. Plus I absolutely love pre-game and post-game stuff when it includes the Mets.

Classic game, but lacks a happy ending. If you still have Game 7, it'd definitely be worth the price of a DVD and shipping to me if you can burn it. And pick any beer from the I Love Beer thread at the March CPF party.

Wait, what March CPF party?

Usually sometime in March the regular members go somewhere for food and drink in the city.
