Kdog of NH

Ya know I feel bad for Cubs fans but good for Dodgers fans - glad to see class act Joe Torre getting his due and in his mind laughing at Steinbrenners! Also glad to see Manny happy and going for MVP - he always had the talent and most of us fans really loved having him here - just the Ahole Boston sports writers who always put him on the fire and he finally had enough(although I don't agree with the way he went about leaving). One player I can't stand is Zambrano! Big cry baby! Red Sox coming out tonight with another of their Aces, Dice K - Go Red Sox and also Go White Sox - Rays will not win WS! K-dog

But there is no question that the dude has maturity issues and can be his own worst enemy. And ours. At least he kept his composure last night. Despite all the stupid errors.

And there have been four instances in the NLDS when a team was down 2-0 and came back to win the series. It ain't over until the fat lady sings!

Well, I hate these playoffs! I've seen little league players who can play better d, and they play for FREE. Is there a manuel available for the Angelsoutfielders that stresses the importance of actually CATCHING a flyball? They don't seem to grasp this concept. To much to ask for a timely jump here orthere as well-right my bad? Oh well, good luck RedSox fans, you earned it. JD Drew? You've got be kidding me. Biggest free paychecker earner in the leagueto never amount to squat. ANYBODY BUT THAT AZZCLOWN!!!!! Dodger fan should pray for this one, since that team will not look like it's current state next year, when they have to actually pay for the players ontheir roster who actually do something. Manny FOR free, and he might just hit you into the big show. Unreal......

The White Sox could have easily won both of their games, my only consolation is that they go back to Chicago for the next 2, (for some REAL baseball, F*** thatdome fake grass s***!!!!) and hopefullly back to TB for the 5th......... The Cubs and Angels? What a joke both teams are, but at least the Angels made a game of it last night, but they're still 0-2, just like the Cubs, bothhaving the best records in Baseball during the regular season........ Wow.........<img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/sick.gif" alt="image"> Well, i've dusted off the ole White Sox cap, and i'll be right there tomorrow, rooting 'em on to victory!!!!

Well, like i said don't count out the Dodgers. Before the first game. But i also said LA Angels of A would win it all. So wrong there too. Just goes toshow you. In a short series, anything can happen. That's why Baseball is the best. Not always the best team that wins. I did'nt forget the New YorkFootball Giants. Not the best record, but still won. Now, to me it looks like the Dodgers and Redsox. For what ever that is worth, lol.

Dave, From tales of your culinary tastes that you've recently shared with us, a Fenway Saasaage n' Paappaa (translation: Sausage & Pepper) sandwich might give you a reason to head to the park. <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v109/jototh/Red%20Sox/TheSasassageGuy.jpg" alt="image"> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v109/jototh/Red%20Sox/SnPsandwich.jpg" alt="image"> Note, this is not me, though I have been known to eat one before, during and after the game.

As much respect as I have for Torre, IMHO he miss managed his pitching staff miserably. D'Lowe was on cruise control. Gotta leave him in for at least onemore inning. He had way to quick a hook with his relief staff. I think he might have used 4 alone in one frame. Seems like buzzed through all of his optionsby the 7th. My Sox were tough to watch last night. Never thought Lester would have been touched so hard <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/image/posticons/pi_freak.gif" alt="image"> Poppi and Ellsbury have to pick it up with the bat NOW. You'd have to believe they're due. I just hope their due date isn't next season <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/image/posticons/pi_freak.gif" alt="image"> ~Joe

Over on the RLMarx World Series Giveaway post, 31 members made picks. Of those, 24 were for either the Red Sox or the Dodgers with 12 each. That left only 7 remaining picks: 6 for Tampa Bay and 1 for Philadelphia (bill58 stands alone there). Right now, both of those teams are leading the series 3-1. I don't want to speak too soon, because anything can happen in baseball (and often does). But it looks like it may not be much of contest. Over 75% of the contestants could get knocked out. I won't be watching the World Series if it comes to that, because I just don't care about either team one way or the other. But if Philadelphiawins, I'm gonna send Bill a buck so he can buy me a lottery ticket.<img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/tongue.gif" alt="image">

With the Angels winning 100 games <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/image/posticons/pi_freak.gif" alt="image">, and theCubs running away early winning a weak division, it's easy for the casual B'Ball fan just tuning in at the end of the season to have overlooked theRays and Phillies. The Rays, won what is possibly the hardest division in baseball, coming in just behind the Angels and Cubs for the best record in the entire MLB. They won theseason series with Boston as well. And the Phillies have been knocking on the Door for the past 5 yrs, finally breaking through last year. They were 4 games behind the Mets mid Sept, and endedup overtaking them, winning the toughest division in the NL. They've always had a nasty lineup, but in the past their middle relief has let them down. Not this year. For the most part that Phillies staff is pitching lights out. Both teams are the real deal. Though the fat lady is yet sing in the AL. The Rays still have to seal the deal with the Sox. I'm have faith...for now...<img src="http://www.ezboard.com/image/posticons/pi_biglaugh.gif" alt="image"> It really don't want to see them celebrating in Fenway... ~Joe
