Between the MLB, NBA, and NHL, a team has come back to win from down 0-3 only twice, both times in the NHL. It happened once in the 40s and once in the 70s.
Yeah, Montreal did it once I believe.

I love Fox's take on reality shows.

"Alright...let's take other networks' shows but make them far more annoying. Then we'll run the same commercial endlessly for a month."

These haters hate the Yankees cause we're so good. I didn't hear them trash talking when we won the first 3 games.

Hell most of the yankee fans didn't even talk trash after the wins.. really disgusting of the haters. You beat us in 7 then you're allowed to talk trash.

suck it down? they're still up 3-1..?

When you blow a lead with Mariano Rivera on the mound... that's a game the Yankees should have won. But in all honesty the Yankees will win it in 5 or 6... it won't go to a game 7.

sweet sweet game. And thanks to the Red Sox fans. This game felt like it really meant something even if it is now only 1 win in this series. That's a game that will extend beyond 1 game. They're entirely back into this series now. As far as the stats on teams that have gone down 0-3, there's only one way to break a curse. To counter it with the unimaginable. If they Red Sox are going to win they're going to win in a big fashion. Anyway, I expect to see Pedro in top form tomorrow. 3 runs or so given up maybe. The Red Sox offense should be running on all cylinders tomorrow also as fired up as they are. My thought is just win the next game and look maybe to have Schilling ready in a pivotal game, if they get to a game 6 or 7. I still think that's the man to bring up if he feels good. Just be very aware and have a backup if he's not Schilling-like

Get the clip of him approaching baggs
and then the clip of him being an ugly scarface
then the clip of him throwing a tantrum in the dougout.

:lol
 
So if the Red Sox are winning through 7 later today/tonight, I won't do a thing. But how many innings should I wait for them if they're losing until I change Joe's tag to something else? See, maybe it was giving him an anti-yankees tag that turned things around, or maybe it was simply the act of changing his tag.

Either way, tonight was all me, Ortiz did shit.

Alright guys...what do you want? seperate clips of Jules vs Beltran/Bagwell, or combined...or the whole inning?


The whole inning looks like it's going to come out to about 90 megs....

What's the best codec to encode stuff to to make it watchable, as well as smaller in size...is DivX pretty much it?

DivX is great.
I think you should edit it together. I want Jules getting rocked by Beltran, almost hitting baggs, snagging kents leg, random clips of him wiping his filthy scarface because hes rattled, and him throwing a tantrum in the dugout.

Heh, I'm not. Well, I am right now, but when one cursed franchise is out you root for the other! Especially when playing the evil empire.

<MiG_Texans> Is it allowable to post a torrent of a clip of Game 4 of the NLCS?
<MiG_Texans> or am I gonna have to PM like 20 people :|
<Rorschach_Source> pm me first, please
<Mandark> Since it was allowed for Jon Stewart's appearance on Crossfire, I'd say yes.
<Mandark> MiG: Just add "Mandark said in the chat I could probably post this, but if one of the mods doesn't like it, they can edit it out."
<Mandark> Then maybe also add "Please don't ban me" with the most pathetic smiley you can muster.



Please don't ban me. :'''''(

Sega isn't cursed, they are just run by imbeciles. Nintendo isn't cursed either they are profitable. Ok, maybe Sega is cursed.

To be cursed you have to have not won anything at all for years. Nintendo still could be considered a winner because they make money. Besides, Nintendo has won something in the last 15 years (Twice in fact, NES and SNES) while Sega has won once (Genesis). Last time the Cubs and Red Sox have won anything was 1908 and 1918 respectively. I'd say Sega and Nintendo have a long way to go to equal that.

Those of you downloading and are almost done....DON'T CLOSE THE TORRENT! Let others get a chance to get the same speeds you did. Someone just closed their 100% complete torrent. I'LL GET YOU! WHOEVER YOU ARE!

Like, say, the console wars?

Boston's won lots, they've had great records, fan attendance, and profit margains over the past few years alone. But they still keep losing to the same team.

pedro in game 5, schilling in game 6 for the sox.

it's all you moose. i have confidence in you.

cant feel comfartable until the yanks win 1 more. this series could easily go to 7.

I want the Red Sox to beat the Yankees 'cause the Red Sox rolled over the Angels, and the Angels could have easily beat the Yankees. :mad:

Oh well, at least Boston TRIED. They most likely won't make it to the World Series, but at least they tried.
 
Well that sucked. I could sense Rivera blowing it, and I knew once he did I should shut off the TV and go to sleep.

Torre should have put in Quantrill sooner if he was willing to concede Victory - because obviously, that's the only reason he brought the useless shmuck in, right?

10-15 years <<<<<<<<< 85+ years

Talk to me again in in about 60 years of Nintendo beat downs if you want to attempt to connect the dots in this horrendous analogy. Go start a thread in the gaming section if you want to discuss the merits of this 'analogy'. This thread is about playoff baseball and not videogames.

Anyway, game 5 games starting at 4PM! The Boston beat down of New York continues!
 
The scary part is, they can come back and win 3 in a row. It's really not that far fetched.

However, some say it won't be a true series until the Red Sox come back to tie at 3, and lose game 7 in extra innings after having a 4 run lead in the 7th.
