Anyone watch West Wing last night?

Does anyone here watch the West Wing? Well, two things happened last night. First, Leo McGarry, who is always dressed very well, might have died. He always had terrific DB suits with a very colorful pocket square.

Second, the "Israeli PM" was on the show last night. Did anyone see the DB suit he had on at the end of the show when he was leaving Camp David? I have never been that big a fan of DB suits, but this suit on him looked awesome. It was charcoal grey with white or light blue pinstripes, tapered at the waist, and a very natural shoulder. He had a plain white pocket square with a straight Presidential fold. It really did look great. I might have to buy a DB suit someday just because of the way this guy wore his. Sadly, I can't remember what shirt and tie combination he had on, but it didn't matter (probably white tie and some sort of blue or red tie).

I'll see if I can find a picture on the internets.

How could you be watching the West Wing and not the Red Sox?

I am actually an avid West Wing viewer, but my priorities were elsewhere last night. I too had never been much of a DB fan, but you should check out the suit A. Harris is wearing in his picture on the "HOF: members pictrures" thread (I think he's on page 3). It really made a convert of me, but I'm still not convinced everyone can do it.

I flipped back and forth between the game and WW. The Israeli PM's suit struck me, too, as being notably nice. Â Ironically, at least with respect to authenticity, Israeli politicians tend to dress down. Â With the exception of Benjamin Netanyahu, one does not regularly see Israeli public figures in suits and ties, much less really nice suits and ties.

Aha. Two televisions. And once I saw the Sox score the run in the first, I knew the game was over (3 hits, 0 runs for the Cards. If not for Larry Walker's meaningless 9th inning homerun in game 3, they would have gotten shut out twice at home. Ouch.).

I did see Fontana on Law & Order. They are portraying him as a clothes horse, albeit of the flashy variety.

Was there a baseball game last night?
