Guest Report post Posted March 8, 2006 No shit they were going to lose, it's damn near impossible to play good enough to win every game. Why the fuck do you guys think baseball has seven game series? I mean, goodness, that's the appeal of the game, is that anything can happen on any given day. Part of the appeal of baseball is that this game's not over yet, as we've seen many times.

jwpeer 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2006 What amazes me is that if it weren't for Harden, Gagne, and Dempster, canada would have EXCELLENT pitching as well. Those three players would make them a serious contender, too bad they couldn't play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Urban Warfare 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2006 Fuck. I never really cared about baseball, but if we manage to beat the US, it will be huge. On the reverse side, when (not if) the US comes back to beat us, it will be the "What a comeback" shit, even though you guys shouldn't even be in this situation.

As long as it's not A-Rod. I'm really tired of the "A-Rod makes teams lose" bull from some fans. And this puts Team USA in the next round. I cannot see them struggling against South Africa and they will probably get a few more runs here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ONLY thing better than A-Rod striking out with the bases loaded to end the game would be Jeter or Damon getting gunned down at home trying to tie it up.

I hate the Yanks as much as the next guy, but I'd rather have A-Rod do it. That would be better. Come on. A-Rod wouldn't dive into the stands for the last out in the 7th game of a World Series, there's no way he'd risk chipping his highly manicured nails to secure an opening round game at the WBC.

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2006 Can we have one god damn baseball thread that DOESN'T turn into Red Sox vs the Yankees?? God, we have to deal with that bull all season. I did the A-Rod because he has taken blame in Seattle, Texas and even in his new Yankee uniform. For one stupid baseball thread, screw the Red Sox and the Yankees.

naiwf 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2006 Actually, I think this is a Mets/Yankees thing. A-Rod striking out would leave Yankee fans really bitter for the rest of the week and that's a good thing for those of us who listen to WFAN. Half of the Yankee fans in the city wanted him traded at the end of last year so he doesn't get a break anywhere he goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
