Better than the Yankees winning.

That's true, at least it wasn't the Yankees or the Red Sox.

Bumgarner is a legend

Royals' third base coach is a bum

 

[wsoxfan1214]

Dynasties are so fucking boring.

Fuck the Giants.

Bumgarner is unreal though.

This is all they are going to talk about in KC for the next however many years

Dynasties are so fucking boring.

Fuck the Giants.

Bumgarner is unreal though.

Better hope LA doesn't win one for 2/3 years or it'll technically be a dynasty as well no?

yeah I'm sure you'd be whining about how boring dynasties are if the Hawks had one going.

Better than the Yankees winning.

edit: My word at that Chimera pic, lol, missed that during the broadcast.

the only thing better than the Yankees winning is the Kings winning.

 

[wsoxfan1214]

You don't send the runner there. If he did and he was thrown out, that would have been so shitty.

 

[Razorskin]

Nashville also got screwed by "intent to blow"

At 1:35 of the first period in the Nashville Predators/Edmonton Oilers game, the Situation Room initiated a video review to further examine a play at the Edmonton net. Video review confirmed that the puck did not enter the Edmonton net on Craig Smith's original shot and that the referee was in the process of blowing his whistle to stop play before the puck crossed the goal line. According to Rule 78.5, apparent goals shall be disallowed "when the Referee deems the play has been stopped, even if he had not physically had the opportunity to stop play by blowing his whistle." Therefore the referee's call on the ice stands - no goal Nashville.

 

[Samyy]

Uh what the fuck are they doing with the trophy? This might be the stupidst thing I've ever seen.

 

[Acid08]

Their celebration after winning was so lame. Another thing hockey is better at.

I agree with you but sometimes you have to just go for it.

 

[ShaneB]

As someone who truly despises the Yankees, any time the Red Sox beat the Yankees, that's ok in my book. I love that rivalry. God dammit the Blue Jays need to make the playoffs!

the only thing better than the Yankees winning is the Kings winning.

I use to think you were alright CaptYamato.

Conservatism in game 7s wins championships

We could just cut it short and say hockey is better at everything except collective bargaining.

 

[Samyy]

LOL IS THIS HAPPENING?

 

[wsoxfan1214]

lmao this fucker

My dad's family is from the Bronx yo.

Not against the most dominate pitcher in the playoffs.

 

[Calamari41]

I know, I was joking. The loss was inevitable at that point, he needed to go for it.

 

[Samyy]

I wonder how much money Chevy wasted on that, could've picked someone that could maybe actually could handle the pressure.

 

[Acid08]

Wonder if there will be more looting and buses set on fire in SF this year.

 

[ShaneB]

My dad's family is from the Bronx yo.

It's all good man, just givin ya a hard time since I hate the Yankees so much.

 

[speculawyer]

It is gonna be great when the 9ers win the Super Bowl and the Sharks win the Cup.

Spoiler

9ers victory not gonna happen. And, LOL, Warriors.

 

[Calamari41]

I'm just salty because they robbed us of a couple of World Series appearances and what would have been wins.

 

[Samyy]

I don't know I think the Sharks are close, a bit of luck and they could be in the finals any year really.

No, they beat the Rockies I was sad when they did win.

Then we are in solidarity.

nah most years the team just straight up wouldn't have been good enough to win. Always a deficiency whether it's defense, bottom six, or goaltending.

Still think the 09 team would have made it to the Finals if half the team hadn't been playing injured coming into the playoffs.

Meh every team has a weak spot or two, except the Kings maybe.
Anaheim has a young D & G, Hawks have Brad Richards as their #2 C, St. Louis has Elliot as their #1 G, Dallas doesn't have a D, etc etc.

I'm going to miss hamster Kessel.

Everyone should go watch it live though. Games are fun and if you have a good pitcher on the mound it can be intense.

Baseball is a great sport live. Makes me sad when I think about the Rogers Centre though.

soccer is fucking terrible

I haven't seen a game live in years because the Blue Jays are so pathetic, but my dad had season tickets in the 90s so I've been to my share. The ballpark experience can be fun for sure.

I think its hockey>>>>>>>>>>>basketball>baseball>>>>football (from what I've watched so far this season.

Rogers Centre? I still call it the Skydome. Or the Dome.

 

[speculawyer]

Did you watch the World Cup? That shit was intense.

 

[ShaneB]

Rogers Centre? I still call it the Skydome. Or the Dome.

Might as well keep up to date with the name! It's not a great ballpark no matter what it's called.

Unfortunately it was built right before that new style of stadiums became a thing

 

[speculawyer]

Yeah, fuck that shit. It is not the HP Pavilion. It is no the SAP Center.

It is the Shark Tank. I don't give a shit who the current sponsor is.

And it is the Shark Tank even when I go see Katy Perry there. (Which I did. I was given free tickets and it was fun.)

 

[Acid08]

SAP Center is the worst fucking thing

 

[shadowkat]

Unfortunately it was built right before that new style of stadiums became a thing

It looks super ugly now.

 

[Quick]

On the plus side, the Jays don't ever get a rain delay or a rain out.

The Rogers Centre really does look boring compared to other parks. I'm not even sure what they can do to it to make it interesting.

The surrounding area outside could use some fixing, too. There's that one statue of Ted Rogers by one of the entrances that looks really awkward just standing by itself.

 

[TheKaeptain]

Nah. You have to watch a game in a country that cares about the sport. When I lived in Germany we would go watch games and it's fucking fun.


Hockey is the best live sport ever though. Football sucks live.
