We are going to try to have a skpe party or something for play offs and World series......

unlimited reps over here.....and you can read them under control panel....

if you want to rep some one, do it before you say thanks....if you say thanks, you can't rep them.....to rep click on the scales on the bottom left....ok so far?

Well my apologies to the red sox fans. The inevitable yearly blow up has occured. Rays are now only 2 back from the wild card spot with 10 games left. We may just pull it off. I'd really love to see another ALS championship. At this point for me the world series would be wonderful but beating the Yankees is magnificient.

hello yellow band, thanks for the welcome.

i really think the tigers can do it. i'd like to see it. and leyland always been a favorite. go tigers!

[macele]

i'd like to see detroit and milwaukee in the world series.

My spouse is the grandchild of someone who played for the Tigers a zillion years ago and is getting us tickets to the playoffs. I'm pretty stoked about that. We'll get tickets to the World Series also if the Tigers make it - so I'm pulling for them.

(Although I am a Jays fan by nature of geography.)

KEWL!!!

Hey, the Jays have been doing quite well, too!

I don't know if I can stand the giants being back in contention for the play-offs or not- really is torture- they have to keep up the winning streak! Plus, other teams must lose (they have been). On pins and needles.

Tomorrow we start the last series vs the Dodgers and Kershaw is pitching. Of course, our "Timmy" is too- but the Dodgers have actually had a good month.

[Dominique]

The tale of two teams continues. The Diamnond backs beat the SuckO's 1 to nothing. At least it wasn't batting practice like they were having at the hands of the Dodgers.

So ATLAST, the mathematicians who crunch baseball numbers seem to think the Giants can win the Division by 1.5 games TODAY, but they are counting on two wins from the SuckO's. (Pirates)....OMG, this is heart attack time in your race. If You're count on the Pirates to be spoilers....
because unless the Braves have a total melt down, they have wild card pretty wrapped up.

Whats happening in the AL.....(looking at Google)WOW, I need to be looking at this every day! New York Yankees are 5 games ahead of the Bo Sox

We know the Tigers are magnificent, 13 games ahead of Cleveland....

Rangers are 5 up on the Angels (I don't think I ever saw an Angels game)

Wild card in the AL is tight/ Bo sox are holding tight for the lead at 88 and 68, Tampa bay right behind them at 85 and 67 they are calling that a 2 game advantage.

Tonights games......Pittsburgh (aka SuckO's) vs Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay and the NY Yankees, (mmm that'll be a good game it's on sun sports and My9)@19:05 EST Giants and Toronto, Baltimore and Boston, Atlanta and Marlins.......

[Dominique]

[Starbuck]

OMG, be still mine beating heart, the Red Sox won a game!

[macele]

young pitcher for baltimore, only 2nd start. 1st start was not good for him. but a few orioles are hot. boston is going with bedard. he may get pounded.

atlanta's bats are not good at the moment. they face sanchez. i say fla wins.

san fran is facing kershaw, dodgers. that will be tough. kershaw will have to have a bad night.

morton is on the mound for pittsburgh. the pirates have given him no run support. but they can beat arizona.

tampa and new york, that's a toss up. going with tampa lol.

i hope atlanta proves me wrong.

[wolfbittenpoet]

I think its going to be a split on this yankees series. I'd love to say that the rays are going to wipe the clay with the yankees but both are just too good.

I want the BoSox to get with it!! What is going on?? It is hard for me because my AL favorite are the BoSox, but I see Detroit as a good bet to take it all (even if my giants are in it again). Verlander is something- but the whole team is a good balance together. I'm really a NL person, though.

Oh- yes, every SF game now is torture- and I have to admit, I wish the Dbacks were playing another team right now!! But, AZ has been playing some very good ball all season really and they have a lot of heart. Lot of talent too.

Mainly, I want SF to get in the play offs. I love them, but I don't know if they are WS material this time. Although, they have been playing smart. But so many key players are out with injuries and although the rookies called up plus Keppinger and Beltran have been contributing this month, I don't know if they have the stuff again.

Kershaw is having a fine year and is a hell of a pitcher for LA. But he is going up against Lincecum tonight and like most of SF's starters, his win record has been screwed up due to the Giants lack of (and inconsistent) offense. The guy is a two time Cy Young winner. But, it looks like kershaw is in the Cy Young running very strongly in the NL. The kid is only 22!! A lot of poise out there on such a young guy. Actually, I would so love to see him in a SF uniform within a couple of years!!


Damn, I wish I could get more of the games of these other teams that all of you like! I hear blurbs on the sports shows about the Jays, BoSox, and the Rays but I wish I could catch a couple of full games. Hell, I usually have insomnia- I could watch at 2-3 am!! But, I will get to see them in the play-offs.

I LOVE this time of the year!! Give me October!!!

Thanks for the game info- now I gotta go watch my guys.. and hope Lincecum has his stuff. And the bats continue to hit!!

[macele]

atlast, you just told it like it is lol. good deal. i hope san fran wins tonight. just about game time!

[Dominique]

I fell asleep a few minutes after dancing with the stars began....I saw none of the show and heard no baseball scores. Will look everything up as the day goes along. I heard the Pirates won one for your Giants Atlast!

GRRRR... Kershaw was brilliant, Lincecum not so! Our bats were rendered poopy by Kershaw- we lost, but not without some intense "almost" moments (score was 2-1 Dodgers. These moments engineered by Bochy's phenomenal management strategy. Love him! One of the "Mr Baseball's" of the game.

But, I see a win tonight and tomorrow. The scrapping, regular guy, no frills, no stars Giants are back!! We shall see, but, my freaks appear to be back!

The Dbacks LOST! So did the Braves, but the Cards won. What an end of the season!!!

[Dominique]

Pirates and Diamond backs have an afternoon game (I have my ear pod into the radio right now, just started no score) Sucko's are off tomorrow.


Wait, they are doing a run down of the play off's right now. Ohgeeze, diamond backs have scored already.
Well the giants are only going to clench the title if all cards fall correctly by half a game....however, much more wiggle room in the wild card. Atlanta is only holding on by 2.5 now. The cards are coming on very strong. Giants 4.5 out of wildcard.

I better peak at AL....that changes every hour it seems

NY has the division by 6 over the yankess....no change there.
Tigers and Rangers no change.....
Wild card looks like this Boston holding the wild card lead by 2 games, Tampa bay behind them, and LA Angels are 3.5 back.......eeeewwww/close!

I'll gladly accept a Giants wildcard birth!! This season has been quite a challenge!!

Yes, the AL with Boston, TB and LAA is something right now!

Now, start picking out you outfit. Remember what Kobi taught us. To be a BOSOX fan, you have to wear your rally shirt and hat inside out.

Do we have to wear FUR or anything strange to be a TIGER fan? Any team in the NL except the BREWERS. I can not stomache the arrogance. The way the jumped up and down on the bag for a single, rubbing the sucko's noses into how baddly we were. (WE KNEW OK!) And, from watching UTUBES, we are not the only team they did it to. One way to stop that is to beat them.
