What about the Indians? Losing in Game 7 of the 97 series, losing Game 5 of the 1999 ALDS.

I fail to see how this justifies a riot after winning in the FIRST round. OMG!!! YOU WON 3 GAMES- BURN THE CITY DOWN!!! You shouldn't riot after winning anything but it's downright retarded to riot after winning in the first round. You never see New York rioting after they win anything Oh no, NYC is a model citizen... listen, most of the people acting like idiots last night were drunken college kids, a good percentage of whom aren't even from Boston.

And the intellect of Boston sports fans is further proven to be seriously lacking. "WE WON! LET'S BURN THIS M***** F****** TOWN TO THE GROUND! WOO!" -=Mike ...Who hopes Boston burns their city town, simply so they have to spend a ton of money to rebuild. And who'll laugh when they lose. Again Don't you have to go get your ass kicked by a girl?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ best post in this self-pity thread.

dude, somebody call that baby Bored a Waaaaambulance! Get over it, Moneyball has been exposed as a fraud. Billy Beane is a joke and Tejeda has no one to blame but himself for this choke job. What did he have? 1 hit this whole series? I'd be more worried about that than was goofy Derek Lowe does after he crushed the dreams of the Oakland A's... oh well A's fans, better get out there and vote, not like you have anything else to do! BUA HAHAHAHAHA *crotch chops to Bored, NoCal Mike and Banky*

Bored, I thought you weren't going to read the comments? Anyways, Tejada didn't just pump his fist, he stood there and postured like he was Jesus Christ, Superstar. And it wasn't game 2, it was game 9 at the end of the eighth or ninth inning... And the A's wouldn't need anyone to poison their food, they'd choke on it anyways, just like in the playoffs. A's? More like D minuses... HAHAHAHAHAHA Oh, and Lowe didn't grab his package, he crotch chopped them, Scott Hall style. Would Hudson still take Zito over Pedro?

Yeah Banky, karma is a bitch, that's way Miggie the showboat is going home tonight...

Cartman, I'm reading the comments you made in the 9th inning, and you should be ashamed of yourself. What kind of a fan are you? You make me sicker than Choken, NoCal, Bored or anyone else that talked shit about this team because you're supposed to be a fan...

If YOU'RE going to insult someone's intelligence, you should be sure to use the correct word. By the way, did you see Millar first-hand in the Castro district?

Since when is the San Francisco Chronicle part of the Boston media?

If YOU owned a bar would you make it a point to tell everyone there was a brawl inside? And I got this from a Bay Area newspaper, so maybe it's the West Coast media with the active imaginations.

Did you know that in the U.S. this weekend there were two tiger attacks in the span of 24 hours? This other guy in NY had a PET tiger who bit his arm. He went to get treated saying his dog attacked him. Authorities noted that the wound looked too big for a mere dog attack, so police searched his apartment and found the Bengal tiger. Oh, and a crocodile too.

SF Chronicle- Boston -- If the A's advance to the American League Championship Series, they might be missing two-thirds of the Big Three. Tim Hudson, Oakland's best pitcher all season, strained his left oblique (side) muscle and left Sunday's game after just one inning. He is scheduled for an MRI exam today in Oakland, and it was unclear when he would be able to pitch again. Hudson might wind up joining All-Star Mark Mulder on the sideline. Mulder is still unavailable because of a stress fracture in his right femur. "I felt a little tweak on the last pitch to (Todd) Walker to end the (first inning), but I didn't think about it,'' Hudson said. "Then on my warm-ups the next inning, I threw a couple nice and easy, and it grabbed a little. I tried to let one go, and I knew I wouldn't be able to do it.'' Hudson, dismayed, sat on the bench, head in his hands, for the remainder of the inning. Three sources suggested Sunday that Hudson's injury might have stemmed from an alleged altercation on Friday night at Q, a Boston nightspot. According to a security guard and a member of the bar staff, Hudson got into a skirmish with a Red Sox fan and threw several punches, including one that clipped a bartender. "It was a big melee. He was throwing haymakers,'' said the security guard, who spoke on the condition his name not be used. "Honest to God, he's 160 pounds and it took eight big guys to hold him back,'' the staff member said of Hudson. "It was five minutes of mayhem.'' Hudson was unavailable for comment about the alleged incident on Sunday night, and the manager of Q, Noel Gentelles, strongly denied that any clash had taken place. "Tim and Barry (Zito) were both here, and they couldn't have been nicer,'' Gentelles said. "Barry even played with the band. There was no altercation.'' Hudson's early departure was a stunner for his teammates, who had to absorb the loss of Mulder in the same city less than two months earlier. Mulder exited a game at Fenway with leg pain after just three innings on Aug. 19 and hasn't pitched since then. "That's deflating,'' reliever Steve Sparks said of Hudson's injury. "But it's a playoff series -- you don't have time to change your focus from the task at hand.'' According to trainer Larry Davis, Hudson's injury is near the same area where he had a problem during the Division Series against Minnesota last year, a problem above the hip that first appeared, Hudson said, before his final 2002 regular-season start. "It's in the same area, but I don't think it's the same thing,'' Davis said. "It's a little higher up, more his oblique muscle.'' As he did in last year's Division Series, Hudson was working on short rest on Sunday. He threw just nine pitches in retiring the side in the first. The injury is a common one for hitters, who often strain obliques on big swings. It might be easier for a pitcher to rehabilitate such an injury, but hitters are brought along slowly because of the risk of aggravating the strain on check swings. Catcher Ramon Hernandez was a late scratch because of back spasms, which he said were the result of a swing in his final at-bat on Saturday night. The All-Star said he was feeling better Sunday afternoon and expects to play today. E-mail Susan Slusser at [email protected]

As soon as I see the story on a reliable source, I'll be more than happy to post it...

Channel 4 in Boston is reporting that Zito and Hudson were out Friday night at a bar drinking and apparently fighting. It took 6-8 bouncers to remove Hudson from the bar. And he was injured today... hmmmmm... At least when Manny goes to a bar, he doesn't fight (or go during playoffs)... What a class act Hudson is, eh?

They said this was the biggest crown in Brave postseason history... be sure to thank chicago on their way out... I bet Sox fans overrun Oakland tomorrow...

No, I was too busy drinking some beers and watching the Sox win last night, Ali G

Yeah. Wednesday will be the only time Fox/FX has a conflict, as they will do double headers on the 11th and 12th...

According to the media guide, FX will also televise games...

It would be Wednesday, 10/8 at 8pm...

Twins 6 outs away from the end of their season...

Sharpton, probably?

Fuckin' limey dickwad.

Ha ha ha ha Banky- the SF Chronic said yesterday was the darkest moment in the history of Bay area baseball, with the Giants and the A's both falling... today must not be that much better!
