EVIL~! alkeiper

The first half of October was pretty disappointing, literally nothing worth taping. I already watched the Undertaker program on dvd not long ago so that holds little interest.

I would imagine that they probably priced themselves too high. It's a high-capacity stadium, and Arizona is the one place where you can go elsewhere this time of year for your baseball fix.

The Rockies' STRENGTH is their pitching. No one realizes that because they play in Coors Field.

Blasphemy. He's not very flashy but he is extremely competent. The previous Tuesday Night Titans was one of the worst shows I've seen WWE produce. You see Bob Orton walk across the studio to get behind the curtain during the opening credits. Roddy Piper looks under the influence of illicit drugs. It amazes me that a company so good at technical values would air a show like that.

The Colorado home games are sold out, little surprise there.

So if Jones had held out one more year, she'd be safe. That sounds even sillier.

One thing I hate, people who write snarky lists that sound like they're better than everyone else. You're not clever, jackass.

I checked to see if that was from The Onion. Well in fairness, it worked last time.

Referring to Cheech, one of the problems was that the Twins did NOT trust their young starters, instead wasting starts on re-treads like Sidney Ponson. The alternative is instead giving that rotation spot to Kei Igawa or Mike Mussina. Is that really any kind of good solution? I say if three of the five best starters are Kennedy, Hughes and Chamberlain, let them pitch. Listening to XM Radio, again the usual bullshit thrown around is that they're not a TEAM. No, the big problem was that they had a three-man rotation and one of those guys was too injured to pitch. No team is going to win a championship that way.

A proud tradition that begins with Johnny Keane.

On the cusp of upsetting the Yankees? Dear god, the Indians had a better record!

No. Save that crap for the NHB folder.

About seven minutes after. The New York Yankees just can not play a f!#%&ing game efficiently.

Yes, unless he did it in the playoffs previously.

Mussina saved the Yankees in 2003. It'll be interesting if he does the same here.

Well the racial slur gives me a reason to toss NYankees for 24 hours. Chien-Ming Wang sucked. That is an indictment of his ability, not himself.

I think it would be fantastic. Im sure there would be good games, but from a National standpoint, any WS not featuring the Red Sox (or yankees) is going to be a ratings disaster for FOX. Fortunately, I don't own stock in Fox. And the success of Survivor, Fear Factor, well just about anything on television indicates that the average viewer is a fucking idiot.

I think it would be fantastic.

I did not intend for it to be an insult. The 1986 NLCS featured without question the greatest clinching game of all time. The 1982 ALCS was very good, decided by one run in the deciding game. I missed the 1985 ALCS, that again was a very good series. "Expansion" to me quite simply describes teams added after MLB elected to add more than the 16 original franchises that carried the leagues for sixty years. One way to change the definition is to say teams after the latest expansion cycle, which would include no such series. Oddly, there has never been a World Series between two expansion franchises.

Here's something. The Rockies/D'backs NLCS will be only the third league championship series contested between two expansion clubs. The others were the 1982 ALCS (Angels/Brewers) and the 1986 NLCS (Mets/Astros).

1 for 10, three strikeouts, two GIDP.

What an awful defensive play for Cleveland. You're up three, don't try and get the lead runner.

And this round has been as disappointing a round as I have ever seen. None of these series have even been competitive sweeps.

Forget about two-out runs. The Indians have outscored the Yankees 17-4, period.

Jeter is 1 for 9 now with three strikeouts. I hope the NY papers notice that while they roast A-Rod tomorrow.
