This Week's UPDATES

I said in last week's updates that it was going get more busy all week when I had to deal with the schedule that I had in front of me. You'll be happy to know that I was right, and this is one of those times where I had being right. I can't talk about the week that I had, it would just take too much time to explain when we have other topics to get to. So with out any further ado, I like to get things moving with this week's 7-Day Round-Up, packed with some unbelievable news stories that will brighten anyone's day at the end of the week.

The matchup for the 2019 World Series has now been set, and the two teams who have advanced will meet each other in the World Series for the first time. It's going a many of firsts as the Washington Nationals who swept the St. Louis Cardinals in four games in the NLCS to secure their first pennant in franchise history as well as the first World Series appearance for a team from Washington, D.C. since 1933. Last night in ALCS, the Houston Astros beat the New York Yankees 6-4 to take Game 6 and punch their tickets to a third World Series appearance in franchise history and their second in three years. The last these two teams met regular season was in 2017 and both of them have made some big changes to their respective rosters and bullpens since then. To see when each game of the World Series will be on air, here's a massive Max Sports Rundown featuring also a look at Week 7 of the NFL season and NHL weekend games for all those hockey fans out there.

Our Main Story this week is about the 2020 Election as last Tuesday was the Democratic Party's fourth presidential primary debate. It took place at Otterbein University in Westerville, Ohio, aired exclusively on CNN and moderated by CNN anchors Erin Burnett and Anderson Cooper and New York Times national editor Marc Lacey. This debate would include 12 candidates on one night as some had assumed it would take place on two nights since it had more than 10 participants, but that was not really the case. The Democratic candidates who qualified for this debate were Tulsi Gabbard, Tom Steyer, Corey Booker, Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren, Pete Buttigieg, Andrew Yang, Beto O'Rourke, Amy Klobuchar, and Julián Castro. It seemed to be the same old same old debate much like the previous ones from this past summer, but the final question of the debate led to a lot of criticism online as it was in regards to Ellen DeGeneres who recently defended her friendship with former President George W. Bush. Most of the candidates had something to say about it and to hear them for yourself, take a look at political Web Choice playlist put together by yours truly.
