My flatmate Seth, who is a Phillie fan from the Jersey side, discovered that the World Series would be televised here in Shanghai, and we could watch it "live" at 8:15am! So it was breakfast and baseball for the world series! We missed the last 3 inning "sprint" that was delayed due to the rain ... and was not televised here... so we had to get the reports from the web.Our other flatmates, Rich and Clare, didn't quite understand all the excitement, but were open to learning the game. They are from Liverpool, and are big football fans... soccer that is... which suits me, since it is also my favorite sport.
But the baseball was definitely an exciting addition to life here at 1501 tower 10, for the past week. Our huge flatscreen tv is like a movie theater. We can hook up caneras and laptops to it and show all kinds of media on our "Big screen." There is a website called youku (youtube knock 
off) that shows everything you can imagine. So we can watch all sorts of tv reruns, or movies, at any time. Of course, we are all too busy to do that, but the option is there when we want to see something.
