Guest Gym Class Fallout Report post Posted October 7, 2007 Cubs fan/atheist/left winger/whatever heeeeeeeeey Anyway, I wouldn't be forced into name-calling if you didn't act like such a White Sox fan (more name-calling) about the whole thing. Even I would've rather seen the Brewers in it than the Diamondbacks, because at least I have some good Brewer fan friends (the kind who don't have pathetic inferiority complexes regarding Chicago and its teams) who would've been happy to see that, and because they're a good team to watch.

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2007 Sad day for the Phillies, but oh well. Congrats to the Rockies. Phillies bats were flat, and guys like Howard, Utley, etc. had an awful series. Still, got to go to a Phillies playoff game and the season was awesome, so hope they come back with some more pitching next year and get to the NLCS! The Mets fan quoting a Phillies fan post is just laughable, since your team still didn't make it. Phillies just ran into a better team. Mets just ran into bad teams and couldn't beat them. For every shot at the Phillies you take, just remember, they are better than the Mets and the NL East Champs! Whoo! Mets off to an hot off-season by re-signing Big Willie Style!

Guest NYankees Report post Posted October 7, 2007 Against the Yankees, that throw is perfect and it magically turns into a triple play. It wouldn't have got to the point of a triple play. The Angels would have swept the Yankees and the pitching would have pitched a perfect game in each win. Too bad the Angels dont bend over and take it up the ASS for the Yankees like they do for the Red Sox every year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slayer 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2007 Should this end as it is, the Red Sox would have 9 consecutive wins over the Angels, going back to the last three games of the 86 ALCS, which made me try and think of other long postseason streaks of one team over another. Off the top of my head I thought of the Yankees winning 9 straight against the Rangers in the late 90s, and the A's winning 10 straight over Boston (88 and 90 ALCS sweeps, first two of 03 DS). I gave a cursory glance at MLB's postseason history and nothing else really stood out to me, but maybe our own statbot knows of some others Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
