It's That Time Again

Recommended Posts

Squeak, squeak, squeak... Okay - so history was made in game 1. Halladay joins a Yankee pitcher in the record books - half a century later! And with only a no-no, not a Perfecto. Once again the Phillies settle for second best. While the Yankees make history every time they step onto the field. How many more postseason wins does Halladay need to match Andy Petitte's numbers? Something like 18 or so? Hmmmmm... Philly pipsqueaks need to get a grip. Until they whup the defending World Series champs they're still chumps. Who's your daddy, Phillies? Huh? Who's your daddy?

Well..if we are talking records...how about Ichrio...10 straight seasons with over 200 hits!!! Just imagine if he had STARTED his career in the Majors!!!

Go Mariners!!!!

What???

They didn't make the playoffs??

Well....maybe next year...or the year after...

The Yankees own the Twins during the post-season, so not much of a test..and if Texas finishes off their stunner, there isn't a whole lot standing in the way of another Yankees WS visit (for the record, I'm a die-hard, life long Tigers fan..).

I sense Philly is on a mission and looking for a rematch..and I sense..they will get it.

I have to say, I was at the Phillies pennant clinching game last year, and it's always fun to watch another team's fans when you have no skin in the game...rabid is an understatement...

Every team and every city has loyal fans. But there's something different about the baseball fans in Boston, Philly, St. Louis, Chicago and New York. Not only rabid, but they know the game - I mean really know the game. Anyone can sit in the stands and cuss out a bum, but in those towns you and your mom not only get cussed out, but you get cussed out professionally by someone who really knows his stats and how to use them.

I, too would like to see a rematch of last Year's World Series. IMHO the Yanks are the only team capable of beating the Phillies this year. And vice-versa.

The only thing I miss in Baseball right now is Toronto smacking that ball for home runs.

Every club should hit 6 home runs in a game & add excitement.

Thank God Hockey started.

I hope the cup comes to Canada soon as 1993 was a long time back for Canada to win the cup......Montreal.

To bad they ran out of steam last year after shocking the world with two stunning upsets.

Be honest folks was it not exciting when the Blue Jays cranked out 6 home runs against Minnesota in that 13 to 1 game? 257 home runs...............tying the 1996 Baltimore Orioles for the third-highest single season home run total.

I just think hockey is exciting and like I said baseball needs lots of home runs and then it is exciting.

Hey Jeff - update your slogan. Unless of course that SWEEP is for the Giants :P :P

It's the Yanks way...

Winning is also their way. Doesn't happen every time, but it's sweet when it does. Lee pitched a helluva game - definitely deserved the "W". This time...

I still can't believe that Philly didn't want him...

Texas is one bad inning away from being up 3-0, and SF has two more at home, up 2-1. Both of these look to go at least 6...

A Giants/Rangers world series? Ugh..perish the thought...would anyone outside of Arlington (ok, maybe the state of TX), and the Bay Area bother to watch?

The only good news is that it looks like I won't be needing to waste any more evenings watching television between now and turkey day...
