6187. jexster - 10/13/2008 6:11:44 PM And Boston should have kept Manny and given LA Big Poopy 6188. jexster - 10/14/2008 2:12:46 AM There is no joy in BeanTown
Big Poopy has struck out 6189. jexster - 10/15/2008 11:58:34 PM D. Ortiz dh .071 6190. wabbit - 10/16/2008 2:17:16 AM zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz 6191. jexster - 10/16/2008 2:22:48 AM Exactly. That's what's happened to the Red Sox bats!
Now we have to endure as many as four games in that barn, Tampa calls a baseball yard 6192. wabbit - 10/16/2008 3:37:15 AM I actually don't mind losing to Tampa, they've got a good team and they've worked really hard this year. They have earned their shot.
And while this isn't strictly speaking a sport, perhaps it could be. I could dig up a video like this pretty much every day.
6193. jexster - 10/16/2008 7:55:33 PM Tampa's great. I always love it when low budget teams do well.
I hate their ballpark. Still I was for the Phillies in the post season from the start more so after Palin's reception at the Flyers game....got nothin here in the Bay Area in any sport (cept the Sharks maybe) for the forseeable future so I am now ALL PHILADELPHIA
Gimme a Pat's Cheesesteak STAT or a Geno's...or whatever
They're lovin Manny in LA
Wonder if they'll keep him. They're not a low budget org. 6194. jexster - 10/17/2008 5:11:44 PM Holy Moly Wabbit...rumors of the Big Poopies deaths were premature. I popped in a movie and when I saw the headline "Red Sox Monster Comeback" I thought it was a joke article 6195. wabbit - 10/17/2008 6:21:50 PM From SI:
…Down 7-0 with seven outs left in their season, the Sox rallied for the biggest postseason comeback in 79 years, denying the Rays a win in their first try at the World Series and sending the crowd at Fenway Park into a delirium. J.D. Drew provided the pièce de résistance, punching a 3-1 pitch from J.P. Howell over the head of right-fielder Gabe Gross for the game-winning hit…
Doesn't mean they'll win the ACLS, but they sure are entertaining. And it was nice to see Ortiz smack one. I had just turned the tv on and went to the 11pm news, and a reporter was standing outside Fenway with all hell breaking loose. Pretty cool.
I gotta say, though, these 1:00am games are killing me.6196. jexster - 10/17/2008 6:33:09 PM I missed EVERYTHING. I so dislike listening to Buck and McCarver that watching a 7-0 ballgame in the late innings is just too much to endure 6197. jexster - 10/17/2008 6:33:50 PM I don't like what they say..I can't even abide their voices 6198. wabbit - 10/17/2008 6:53:39 PM I agree. I turn the volume down and just watch the game. I used to listen to the radio announcers, but watching the game in silence is just fine. 6199. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 10/18/2008 12:09:01 AM What a nice surprise this morning to feel resurrected after going to bed condemned to relive the frustrations of the old days. 6200. wabbit - 10/18/2008 1:04:28 AM You betcha!
she says resignedly… 6201. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 10/20/2008 5:52:57 AM From worst to first--good for them! 6202. wabbit - 10/20/2008 2:37:57 PM  Carl Crawford and the Rays beat the defending World Series champion Red Sox in a tight, well-played Game 7 of the American League Championship Series on Sunday, capping an incredible worst-to-first season with a 3-1 win that was, in many ways, a perfect and fitting finish to their season. With the win, the Rays go from a team that, before this season, averaged 97 losses a year for the first 10 years of its existence to hosts of Game 1 of the World Series here on Wednesday night. If they get past the National League champion Phillies to win the Series -- and, at this point in their incredible journey, no smart person would bet against them -- they'd be the first team ever to go from last place to a World Series title the next season.
Now, the Rays have a couple of days off to regroup and ready themselves for their unexpected trip to the World Series. A lot of people, even before this season, expected the Rays to compete this year. But few, pressed further, expected them to win 97 games and the AL East, to make the playoffs and to beat the defending World Series champs.
The Phillies, the losingest team in pro sports history with only one championship to their name, vs. the Rays, sad sacks since joining the majors with Arizona in 1998 with the worst record in baseball last year. I'm hoping the WS will be as good as the ACLS was.
