Jaxom must be imbimbing heavily right now. ;)
Still hope for my Cubs vs. Red Sox hell freezes over world series!
There's no way the As could possibly fuck up three 2-0 series leads. :)
so how about those Senators?
I think I heard them say on Fox after the game today that the A's were 0 for the last 8 post-season games where they could've sealed up a playoff series. So I still have hope! [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
You and Fox can just shut the hell up!! :P
I'm not an avid baseball fan, but I've been a Sox fan since childhood who comes from an extra large family of Sox fans. I can't help but root for them.
It should be a good game tomorrow night. I don't have much hope for the As against the Yankees if Hudson's pulled up lame. Without Mulder they've limped into the playoffs. At least their third ace is going up against Pedro. :)

Almost all the games in all the playoffs so far have been really good. I'm very happy.
The first As/Sox game was one of the best I've seen in awhile. Both teams have played their hearts out. The Cubs and Atlanta took it to the wire as well. Whoever ends up in the WS deserves to be there. No doubt!!

Psssst. KiSA, you're supposed to say, "Just wait until next year!!".
"There's no crying in baseball!" ;)
*sniff*
"Just wait until next year!"
"Psst, but did you see them play? That would make anyone cry..."
SOX WIN!! SOX WIN!! WOOOHOOO!
*sobs*
Correct me if I'm wrong here, but aren't Wrigley and Fenway the two oldest ballparks in MLB? If nothing else that would make for a cool series. [img]smile.gif[/img]
These threads always amuse me because you may as well be speaking martian, [img]tongue.gif[/img] if you asked anyone down here to name 20 sports nobody would even mention baseball.
By the way Rugby World Cup starts this weekend.
Go the All Blacks! [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
Baseball is the heart and soul of the US. Some people hate it, prefering the more contact sports, but those of us who love it are diehards.
And Baseball teams have more character I think. There are no football teams that have the charm of the Cubbies.
*brrrrrr*
Is it just me or is it getting cold in here?
I think we need to get Jace drunk to console him. [img]graemlins/martini.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img]
(what a game, though)
<font size="2" face="Comic sans ms, Helvetica, sans-serif">They're also the two most cursed teams in baseball...the Cubs with the Billy Goat and the Red Sox with the Bambino...Seeing the two teams play in the Series would be so cool...it's just too bad that the Red Sox curse would have to continue when the Cubs wipe the floor with them...heh...Quote:

I know all about the Sox and the Bambino curse... but what's the story behind the cubs and the billy goat?
I saw on tv a black cat walking on the baseball field, walks between the batter box and the cubs hitter... it said they dropped from first place since or something like that...
ANYWAY... if these two teams meet, brace yourselves, the end of the world is coming...

Some of the story is buried in the article in the attached link...
Feh. At least I got to watch them choke in person instead of on the screen.
*will also root for a Sox/Cubs series because he hates the Yankees*
I hope J.Damon makes it back to beat up on the Yankees. That was a nasty collision. Could hear it all the way up on the third deck.
Oh yeah. I almost forgot...
JUST WAIT UNTIL NEXT YEAR!!!!!
I litterally gasped when I saw that hit. Certainly one of the nastiest things I've ever seen on live television. Probably #5.
Worse than the Theisman tackle...?
Jeez. The Cubs are teeing off tonight. The Sox are up as well. Curses, shmurses. :P
Don't jinx them! [img]graemlins/whatever.gif[/img]
<font size="2" face="Comic sans ms, Helvetica, sans-serif">That'd be #3Quote:

Hey, Rich! What's that shadow looming over Fenway...? [img]tongue.gif[/img]
I think a Cubs/Sox series would be great...Chicago would have to total edge...
Sox lose. Sox lose. [img]frown.gif[/img]
Interesting curse heh.. turning away Billy Goat... well, if ever I owned the Reds and the Astros decided to bring their Billy Goat up to GABP, I would let them in and give them free Reds stuff...
heh heh heh... ah isn't knowing history just plain evol...
Yup, it hurt! Ouchie!
But not as bad as that idiot "fan" getting the choke hold from a really large cop! Lol! Just a few minutes later.
Cubbies! Cubs all the way!
(ps: hate those Yankies and the Red Sox)
Didn't realize how deep this rivalry went.
*still pissed at the shitty baserunning of the As*
GO SOX!!
Tuesday night should send the Cubs to the World Series for the first time in 58 years...oh yeah...
GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm with you, Jax. GAH!!!!!!!!
suicidal fans!
What a idiot, I can understand if it the other team you are interfering with, but your OWN?!?!
stupid fans!
I bet that guy left Chicago for good... but the rule states that the batter should have been called out in that interference...
GAHS along with Jax and others...
