dam, 10:00 est start tonight. I hate these late games

Joey Slugs 10-05-2005 01:50 PM

ESPN Triple-header. Gotta love playoff baseball.

Hardkore Kidd J 10-05-2005 01:51 PM

ALDG

White Sox > Red Sox 3-2 [ The first round is a best of five series I think. Basically I'm actually cheering Chicago in this match up at least frankly I would cheer anyone who is facing the Red Sox just to get Boston out of the playoffs]


Yanks > Angels 3-1

NLDG

Braves < Astros 3-1

Cards > Padres 4-0

ALCS

Yankees > White Sox 4-3 [Chicago is a real good team but the way I see Yankees are going to take it in game 7 sorry Joey Slugs]

NLCS

Cards > Astros

WS

Yankees > Cards 4-3 [Once again another real close one]

Loose Cannon 10-05-2005 01:53 PM

LOL, scroll down to Game 3 and watch the 4th video.

My favorite playoff moment ever

Joey Slugs 10-05-2005 01:56 PM

He should of stayed with the Reds. Not because of the HR against Boston, but because he ended up being a thorn in our side with Cleveland.

The Miz 10-05-2005 03:57 PM

VEL you can't tell me you are honestly picking the Angels. They are awful.

BCWWF 10-05-2005 04:06 PM

LC, with other sports I don't think its the same for a couple reasons.

1. Basketball has been dominated by L.A., Sacramento, Texas, and other western teams.

2. As for the NBA and NFL, they are nationally shown on other networks.

The NBA on TNT is awful, mainly the playoffs. When you start a HOME game at 10 p.m. on a weeknight, you are just bad.

But yeah, Yankees/White Sox ALCS, Yankees probably win, lose to Cards in WS.

Awful enough to make the playoffs and win their division.

Yeah, there my pick... not a strong pick, honestly I think it's a crap shoot and wouldn't put money on any of the 4.

Based on season performance, their pitching looks the best.

Yanks starters have been shakey, sox entire rotation and pen have been shakey and I just don't see the White Sox getting it done.

Don't have "all access" so can't see it.

Was this before or after one of my favorite moments when Byrnes missed home plate, then rather then trying to go for the plate, pushed Teck (who had the ball and tagged him out).

Still one of my LMFAO fav's :)

Nervous Ferret 10-05-2005 07:11 PM

yeah, it is when Byrnes slid right over home plate.

Loose Cannon 10-05-2005 07:14 PM

I don't have all access eathier. All you need is a real player. Unless I somehow magically have all access

Nervous Ferret 10-05-2005 07:16 PM

works for me, but I thinks yous gots ta have Real Player

OssMan 10-05-2005 07:57 PM

WOOO LETS GO BRAVES

Joey Slugs 10-05-2005 08:22 PM

Let me ask you a question because I was almost positive you were a Red Sox fan like a month ago did you like lose a bet in which you had to put a Yankeees avatar up or something? Becuase I was almost positive you were the one who had the avatar of David Ortiz getting drencehed with champaine from last year's world Series. Like I said I could be wrong. If I am then my bad.

Happy early Birthday. Since I'm never gonna remember to say that on Friday. I hate the fact that Yankees aren't playing till ten.

Joey Slugs 10-05-2005 09:52 PM

Thank you much HKJ. Yeah, I hear ya on the late game... just be glad it's not on Fox. They turn quick games into 4 hour epics with all the breaks.

Joey Slugs 10-05-2005 10:11 PM

I just love how pissed Wells gets when he is taken out of a game.

Joey Slugs 10-05-2005 10:20 PM

Big Bad Bobby Jenks :love:

What did Wells do when he was taken out? The way you said it he did something to show how pissed he was what did he do? I'm not watching the Sox game which is amazing because as of now I want to watch the Red SOx game so I could watch them lose 2 in a row to the White Sox.

he did the same thing he always does... yells out to himself and then turns his back on the manager.

LOL:lol: Sorry! As you may know I do not watch too many Red Sox games. I still can't believe they payed so much for Wells I mean how long he got 1 year, 2 years? I'm just waiting for that guy's arm to fly off with the ball. And LOL at those two people dancing in the crowd when Chicago won for the second time.

That's pretty understandable. When was that last playoff game that the White Sox won? I heard the announcers mentioning it so many times. It's been a while since the White Sox won their last playoff game right?

Loose Cannon 10-06-2005 12:46 AM

I wish I could take those fucking red sticks and bash that stupid monkey in the face with them. Let's see them rally after that.

Loose Cannon 10-06-2005 12:50 AM

I swear most of these Angel fans are mentally challenged. literally. just watch when the camera go on them.

We were swept out of the playoffs in the 2000 ALDS by Seattle, won 2 road games against Toronto in the 1993 ALCS, and won once in Baltimore in the 1983 ALCS.

The last home game we won was game 1 of the 1959 World Series against the Dodgers.

The last playoff series we won was waaaaaaaaay back in 1917, which is the last time the White Sox won a championship.

The announcers were refering to the last home game we have won before yesturday's white wash, that of course being in '59 (which was an 11-0 win).

Blame the new owner. The first thing he did after he bought the team was to lower the beer prices by 50% or something like that.

So... they aren't mental... they are all fucking smashed.

Joey Slugs 10-06-2005 02:17 AM

Angels win. Series tied 1-1

As long as it goes all five, I'll be happy.

Lost a bet to LC, there's a thread further down.

VonErich Lives 10-06-2005 05:18 AM

Well, not the best situation.... But, we've been here before... down 2-0 vs. Oakland in 2003, down 3-0 vs. NYY on 2004.

That being said, you can only do it so many times till it catches you.

That and this team (red sox) is not where near is as good as 2004, flip side is this White Sox team better then 2003 Oakland?

I dunno, Wake on Friday, Schilling on Sunday, both at home, Sox are strong at home (except against Toronto!) Could easily see this going back to Chicago for game 5. Of course, we saw what Contreras did to the sox in game #1.

That and as of right now, the sox don't have a game #5 pitcher. They already announced Clemment to the pen.

They could save Arroyo, but using Papelbon tonight, he might need him over the weekend. The most likely option is Wells on 3days rest.

There's also a chance that Saturday may get rained out. They're saying this would give Wells an extra day of rest? Wouldn't they just play Sunday/Monday rather then Sat/Mon?

Dunno, Tip my hat to the White Sox though, the "small ball" that people make fun of them for is what kept runners in scoring position and w/o that the error wouldn't have mean't anything.
