CanadianChris Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HarleyQuinn Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Shit...now I'll be flipping b/w the Pats vs Titans & Sox vs A's game tomorrow
EVIL~! alkeiper Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 As an independant observer, I am loving this postseason.
Bored Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 I won't even say it at the risk of being flamed but...hopefully someone else will say it.
HarleyQuinn Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Oakland choked, plain & simple Bored. The errors killed them
CanadianChris Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Apparently, God didn't like the A's today, according to Nixon. Sheesh.
iliketurtles Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 I now need to fucking watch tommorow...I can close my pool some other time.
iliketurtles Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 So is Derek now going to cut his hair?
CanadianChris Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Wow, and I was going to sit back and enjoy my first weekend of NFL Sunday Ticket. So much for that.
Bored Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Oakland choked, plain & simple Bored. The errors killed them Yes...and something else killed them.
treble Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Is that SEVEN games in a row that the A's have lost when they've had the opportunity to eliminate someone? Â Damn.
Kahran Ramsus Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Watch Oakland lose the next two now.
the pinjockey Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Oakland choked, plain & simple Bored. The errors killed them Yes...and something else killed them. A two run homer?
EVIL~! alkeiper Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Bored- The A's had several innings where they could have won it. They still have two games left. If they don't win the series, they'll have much more to blame than that call.
iliketurtles Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Suggestion to all New England fans...go to Nesn for Extra Innings.
CanadianChris Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Too bad Burkett has to start tomorrow. They've got virtually no shot.
Bored Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Oakland choked, plain & simple Bored. The errors killed them Yes...and something else killed them. A two run homer? Very funny. Â Oh and the Red Sox are about the most bush league team I've ever seen with their childish antics during the game.
iliketurtles Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Too bad Burkett has to start tomorrow. They've got virtually no shot. But...they do have Pedro ready to go, too.
Bored Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Bored- The A's had several innings where they could have won it. They still have two games left. If they don't win the series, they'll have much more to blame than that call. Very true...but how this loss went down might have just killed them. This is like Game 3 of '01 and they were dead the next two games.
CanadianChris Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Bored- The A's had several innings where they could have won it. They still have two games left. If they don't win the series, they'll have much more to blame than that call. Very true...but how this loss went down might have just killed them. This is like Game 3 of '01 and they were dead the next two games. If they can't beat John Burkett tomorrow, with Tim Hudson on the mound, they don't deserve to win this series in the first place. I fully expect them to take it tomorrow (but I won't be cheering for them).
Bored Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Oh and I will say this, Tejada fucked up BIG TIME by not just going home as he might have still scored as the throw was way off. Still doesn't excuse the call.
CanadianChris Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Oh and I will say this, Tejada fucked up BIG TIME by not just going home as he might have still scored as the throw was way off. Still doesn't excuse the call. That was the biggest mistake. You NEVER stop unless the official has signalled the play is dead. Tejada was expecting the official to bail him out, and he paid for it. Â And, for what it's worth, I agreed with the explanation that the announcers were speculating on (Mueller was allowed to be there because he was expecting a throw from Garciaparra).

But what about the explanation that Tejada would have been out? Obviously you couldn't have made that assumption considering the throw wasn't anywhere near the plate.

I don't think that's what the umpires decided. Tejada could advance from third at his own risk (at least that's what's being reported on the recap shows). It's one of those things where if you aren't sure, either don't run at all or run it out hard.
Bored Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Now I know I'm venting but hey Red Sox fans did plenty of venting after the first two games so its my turn. What really pisses me off is Steve Palermo tell Gary Miller that it was the wrong call and then two innings later after talking to Bud Selig its the right call? Sorry that's bullshit. Â God damn at least the Giants fucking lost or this would be a complete nightmare.

Yeah, that confused me too. I'm guessing he either had access to a replay or talked with someone on the umpiring crew before talking to Selig. I thought it was a bad call too, until they went through the replay sequence.
JangoFett4Hire Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 Oh and the Red Sox are about the most bush league team I've ever seen with their childish antics during the game. Yeah like Miggy's grandstanding after catching a routine fly?

No I'm not talking conspiracy but this is what big businesses do...try to make their bullshit smell the freshest. Bobby Valentine and Harold Reynolds after the game both said it was the wrong call.
