Sox vs. A's

[defense]

tough loss for the Sox. I said Pedro was capable of pitching a two hitter..and up until the 8th inning..he only allowed 3 hits. It was clear he was becoming weak and i'm not even an avid baseball fan. Had Grady put in Embree when his hunch told him to...I don't see how the Yankees would of been able to come back.

But you really gotta look at this entire curses shit...it really seems like there is some other unknown force out there. Just game 6 of the cubs game alone..not to mention all there other opportunities over the last 58 years which were mysterious. The same thing with the BoSox...those two teams are doomed! Poor cubs fans..they shoulda let that damn Billy Goat in the stadium 58 years ago....unreal.

Take a look at this link. Some New York paper screwed up and ACTUALLY printed up and delivered early edition papers with the Yankees losing to the Red Sox. The article says that TWO editions were printed up..but that's real odd because the only time i've ever read two editions being printed up is when a game ends so late that it will screw up production numbers if they wait too long. What is even more peculiar is that if ANY team is known for comebacks late..its' the Yankees...so ANYONE in ANY city printing up TWO papers..ESPECIALLY in N.Y .....that's pretty damn odd. SPPPOOOKKYYYY BAAAMMBIINOOO.

As it is...the Yanks have a solid team...not nearly as solid as the
90s tea,ms....we're gonna show the Yanks how you really play baseball. :P

Marlins take game 1...WOOT!!!

[defense]

Marlins take game 1...WOOT!!!

You can say that again! What a game man! Yanks had 10 straight home world series wins until we came in their tonight and tapped em'! 1 down... 3 more to go! WOOT WOOT..... :P

[Devanshu]

Yep...I especially like the top of the ninth when pierre stole second and jeter couldnt get him out :P

[defense]

That definitely had psychological affects on the Yankess..as did Pierre's other plays. Marlins gotta take this game tonight too....it's about an hour away...gotta put a stranglehold on the Yanks...they are at a disadvantage in terms of Speed and Defense....which is what wins Championships. And you saw what the Marlins did to Prior and Wood so "pitching" ..the only area you can give the Yanks the advantage in....isn't nearly as big as the advantage of Speed and Defense. Gotta take this game tonight...put that Python Choke hold on the Yanks. :P

[Devanshu]

I certainly hope they do.

[defense]

Tough loss..wasn't close from the beginning....but that's ok....three striaght down here.....the Marlins will handle business down here. Taking 2 out of 3 is the game plan.

[Devanshu]

Minor setback...but they'll take it in the end.

[Devanshu]

Damn those yankees!!

Update: After three games, 2-1, yankees in the lead

Not anymore. I went to the game last night....talk about terrible conditions...raining off and on....but a seriously competitive game...that was..until the Yankees broke it open late....damn...woulda been a lot nicer to go to the game tonight...but had no chance of getting tickets.....at least not for less then 4 Large.

But to be at a World Series atmosphere regardless of the outcome is damn sure priceless. We beat Wells tomorrow like we did in Game 1...and we have the Yanks right where we want em'. Got all the momentum now after that amazing win tonight...damn I wish I was there tonight.....what a game! :P

Defense said after the Marlins went down 2-1 with the series shifting down here:

Tough loss..wasn't close from the beginning....but that's ok....three striaght down here.....the Marlins will handle business down here. Taking 2 out of 3 is the game plan.

UPDATE: 3 games down here have been played..the MARLINS did take 2 outta 3...they did handle business.....PLAN EXECUTED. Next Plan: Win Saturday's game with Beckett and end the series...don't let it go to a game 7. History is about to be made! :P

[Devanshu]

Yep...2-2. GO MARLINS!

I soooooo want to go to a world series game...that'd be awesome! Marlins have really been the dark horse for this series...I hope they win.

[defense]

Yep...2-2. GO MARLINS!

It's actually 3-2 Marlins.

I soooooo want to go to a world series game...that'd be awesome! Marlins have really been the dark horse for this series...I hope they win.

I'm sure you'll get your chance. I happen to live less then 10 minutes from the stadium (Pro Player.) I got my ticket for less then $100 and considering they were going for several thousand....that's as close to a steal as you can get. The game condidtions sucked though...it woulda been great to go to last nights game....take about an amazing game....that woulda been nice.

As far as the Marlins being dark horses....yea..they have been that...but even with the fact that they beat the heavily favored CUBS AND GIANTS..they still werent' getting resepct..and now up 3-2 in the WORLD SERIES....THEY STILL aren't getting respect....those bozo's on ESPN keep talking like the Yankees are up 3-2 and as if they have nothing to worry about....they better wake up...because before they know it..it's gonna be all over for em'. "YANK THIS!" LMAO....

[Devanshu]

Forgot it's been five games.

The problem is, I dont think I'll ever have the chance to go to any major league game unless I move from this stupid state.

"YANK THIS!"

[Will Hay]

So, for someone who....
1) hasn't a clue what's going on but is keen to learn
2) has read most of the thread but get's lost when defense get's excited
What's going on now, what's the status?
I get it's best out of seven games, right?
Okay, I'm out
Will

[Devanshu]

@ Will...



Yes, its best out of 7...Florida Marlins are up 3 games to 2 of New York Yankees. One more and the Marlins win! Its thier second time in the world series(I think) and the Yankees have been in countless times. I want florida to win since they've beaten the odds several times and have really tried hard(new york is really rich and have most of the famous players, derek jeter, roger clemens etc.) so Florida is my pick.

Let me know if you're confused about the rules.

[Devanshu]

MARLINS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MARLINS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOT!!

Aah...yet another successful baseball season gone. Cant wait for next year.

[defense]

Yep...and talk about being on the money...I called it in 6 before the series....what a game...that guy Beckett can pitch...leaving the Yankees SCORELESS......for a HUGE game like that...amazing shit......it really is. Talk about making your mark in history...a payroll ONE THIRD that of the Yankees..and still tapped that ASS! HAHAAAA....yep.....like I said....

YANK THIS!

Baseball is really starting to suck. I think the NFL should run MLB LOL.

[Devanshu]

I think baseball is cool the way it is. What's NFL going to do, start a slugfest? Then how different would baseball be from football.
