Granted, the baseball season isn't technically over? I'm aware there's that small matter of the World Series, but the impending clash between the Red Sox and the Cardinals has anticlimax written all over it. This is Sharon Stone's next movie role after Basic Instinct (Sliver, for those of you snoring at home) or the next Crossfire after Jon Stewart ransacked the set last Friday. Fans in New England and St. Louis undoubtedly remain transfixed, but for the rest of us, having had the specter of the Red Sox-Yankees blood feud relentlessly pounded into our heads for all these years, Boston's gripping ALCS triumph represents the end game.

Besides, we already know who's going to win the Series: Boston, because -- well, because that's just the way it is right now. The Patriots haven't lost in 13 months, and in another two weeks, give or take a few manual recounts, a senator from Massachusetts is going to be elected president. The Sox just pulled off the greatest comeback in baseball history and took down their hated rivals at Yankee Stadium, and you think they're going to let a few tired arms deny them their dance with destiny?

Funny in some parts. Talking out of his ass most of the time.. still entertaining though.

From my brother

An improbable season with half-a-starting-pitching staff and middle relief I could get extra base hits off of comes to an end in Game 7 of the National League Championship Series. If you'll permit me to say goodbye to the team real quick...

Nice renting you, Carlos. Enjoy your new 28-year, $291 zillion contract.

What's up, Kent? Could you get Carlos' bags? Don't mind us, we'll just be changing the locks while you're outside.

Dan Miceli. You fucking gascan. Rot in hell, you rag-armed piece of dogshit.

Try staying healthy, Andy. I mean, we didn't pry you from the Yankees to spit sunflower seeds for more than half the season. Hell, I'll do it at one-tenth your price.

One more season, old-timer. C'mon, Nolan Ryan was like 78 when he quit.

Damn Biggio, you look a lot like Kevin Bacon.

Peter Munro. Wow. Still got the picture with the Twins hat up. Bet you never thought you'd be starting Game 6 of the NLCS, did you? You're not alone.

Jeffrey Robert Bagwell. Uncle Jeffington. Brown Paper Bagwell. (sigh).
I guess that's it. I gotta go hang out with my new homeboy now...

Hell-o, Tracy McGrady!

:lol :lol hahaha

Bagwell will be back with a vengance next season. Well ok maybe not but he will be better.

He's gonna work on changing his stance this offseason. I can guarantee he won't hit .266 next season.

 

[Mike Works]

Alright, so Matlock wanted to start a new thread for the World Series earlier this week. Do you guys want to do that or keep this one going?

 

[Eminem]

i say just keep this one going

 

[Miguel]

Start a new one.

Offseason. Preseason. Season. Playoffs. World Series.

 

[Fifty]

i say just keep this one going

I agree. The Yankees/ Bo Sox series was so big that if anything it deserved it's own thread. The playoffs include the world series, it should stay as this thread, but whatever.

 

[olimario]

Keep this one going.
No need to start a new one.

 

[Iceman]

finally got the arod pic done:

 

[J2 Cool]

finally got the arod pic done:

:lol :lol :lol awesome!

 

[Miguel]

finally got the arod pic done:

 

[MetatronM]

Holy shit, what a masturbatory lineup intro the Red Sox are getting at Fenway. :lol



Anyway, go Sox!

 

[Miguel]

:lol

Red Sox have like 80 players out there.

 

[MetatronM]

:lol

Red Sox have like 80 players out there.

Including some that haven't played in 60 years. :lol

I guess they figure they only get these opportunities once every few decades, so it's best to make the most of it.

 

[MetatronM]

Steven Tyler:

 

[Malakhov]

GO RED SOX GO

 

[Desperado]

go sox

 

[Malakhov]

PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

 

[Cloudy]

Ortiz is a beast....

 

[MetatronM]

That Ortiz shot was fair?!

Goddamn, nobody can stop him!

 

[Malakhov]

4-0!

 

[Miguel]

Hoosier Daddy? No....

WHO'S YOUR PAPI!?

 

[Miguel]

:lol @ Bye Bye Bye.

 

[Desperado]

:lol funny how a pitcher can throw 7 innings of 1-hit ball and then one start later give up 4 runs in the 1st inning.

 

[Malakhov]

lol Papi walked, what a surprise

 

[Kuroyume]

Ortiz has such a fat head.

 

[Brofist]

Only took 2 at bats to get the Bonds treatment I guess :lol

 

[brooklyngooner]

Nice, Walker. Sorry to be in the minority in this thread but go Cards and go to hell Sox.

 

[Malakhov]

Freaking Walker, hate him with a passion since the Expos lost him.

 

[Socreges]

And now you must naturally hate the Expos since Montreal lost them!

Walker > Boston

 

[Mike Works]

And now you must naturally hate the Expos since Montreal lost them!

 

[Malakhov]

Nah, I've lost my Expos in 94, not 2004. Had time to deal with it

GO RED SOX GO

 

[brooklyngooner]

If you are over the age of 18 and you bring a homemade sign to the ballpark you are a huge loser.

 

[Malakhov]

Oh yeah baby, 6-2.

 

[Malakhov]

Another walk for Papi

 

[MetatronM]

7-2

And a 4 pitch walk to Ortiz. :lol

 

[Miguel]

Someone get the "Remember the 90s" CD away from Fox. Please...now.

 

[Malakhov]

Can't believe I'm watching Baseball again, only because I went on a trip to Boston

 

[speshylives]

Nice to see the Cardinals hit Wakefield and prove that the Yanks offense just absolutely fucking blew the last 4 games of that series.

you know knucklers are tricky. specially when guys are pressing.

 

[speshylives]

Well, to his benefit, Joe Morgan mentioned the wind is suppossedly blowing in and screwing up his control. And if Morgan said it, it must be true.

 

[speshylives]

Wow, this is quite the pitchers duel. I'm not watching, is the ump calling a shitty strikezone?

 

[neptunes]

why did fox do that little intro for rameirez?

 

[brooklyngooner]

Nice. Walker is abusing Sox pitching.

 

[Cloudy]

Bosox are choking

 

[AniHawk]

It's the curse!

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

that's some offense.

 

[MetatronM]

why did fox do that little intro for rameirez?

I don't know, but it was funny as hell.

This is what I was hoping for from this series. High scoring and close.
