iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 Jesus. Sox are getting some solid hits, but at the wrong places in the Angels infield. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slayer 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 My problems is that, while I wouldn't say I'm "afraid" to face NY in the ALCS again, I (as most Sox fans, I imagine) couldn't bear a third ALCS loss to NY in 5 years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Coffey Report post Posted October 7, 2004 0-2. Manny not looking like an MVP candidate thus far tonight. I think his 3-run BOMB in the first game will cut him some slack though. I can't believe this game is in the fifth already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 I see your point, definately. And you know, if they do lose to the Yankees in the ALCS again? It will fucking blow. At this point, WHOEVER they lose to in the playoffs will fucking blow. But it's worth wanting the Yankees just because they could always win, and that's how we all want it. And be honest...other than Red Sox and Twins fans, who gives a flying crap about Twins/Sox in the ALCS? Yankees vs. Red Sox is the best rivalary in sports. Easy.

iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 This thread definitely doesn't have the support that the Yankees thread has. West coast game...weekday night...it's only Game 2. People that wanted to watch baseball got their fix with the Yankees game. This game, while important, isn't really critical to most average baseball fans.

iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 Pedro's at 75 pitches...he's starting to reach his point. I don't see him lasting longer than the 6th inning. Terry needs to fucking get someone up right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KingPK 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 Whoo, Millar better check if that line drive didn't break some fingers. That thing was smoked. Pedro's got one inning left, methinks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 Since Millar got them out of that one, I'd say let Pedro start the 6th...but have someone ready to take over if Pedro's still showing signs of weakness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People that wanted to watch baseball got their fix with the Yankees game. This game, while important, isn't really critical to most average baseball fans. It's critical to me! I'm a baseball fan and Pedro & Colon are pitching. Not only that, but Manny is an MVP candidate, so I want to see how he continues his great season in the play-offs. Same with Vlad on the Angels. Plus, it's called by Berman, and he's money. On top of that, it's a lot easier to watch the post season when all the stress and pressure is off of you as a viewer. Seeing as how the Cubbies didn't make the play-offs, I'm just watching competitive baseball now. I'm not rooting for anyone. It's more enjoyable, but I can't say I'm happy about the Cubs season. That's another rant though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KingPK 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 I'd have Pedro on a short leash right now. Get the bullpen cooking, and yank him the moment trouble arises. I don't give a fuck if it hurts his feelings, get over it. And by the looks of things, since (almost) all of the game 1s were blowouts, all the Game 2s will be good, close games.

Guest Coffey Report post Posted October 7, 2004 Why the Berman hate? I think his enthusiasm adds a lot to the game. He's not like Jim Ross. Damn. I promise to go to dictionary.com and learn how to spell enthusiasm now too. EDIT: enthusiasm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
