2010 World Series: Rangers @ Giants

[Cocos Disciples]

Very few people predicted this matchup, but both teams defeated their respective league's defending champions to get here. Should be a good series.

ill keep eye on it but Celtics are more important

Game Time - 7:57p.m.

 

Think they throw the first pitch by 9?

[italstallianion]

Now that the Yankees aren't in it and that I don't have a team to root against (or for), I'm going back to bed.

[Divinity]

I hate News corp. (FOX) they're a bunch of greedy bastards. FOX is blacking out the World Series from 3 million Cablevision subscribers because the two sides couldn't reach a deal. Cablevision even agreed to binding arbitration or a 1 year deal worth the same as other providers pay and News corp. still refused. They shouldn't have the right to keep us from watching the WS.

 

I would've loved to see them try and do this if the Yankees were actually in the WS and they were going to keep half of NY from seeing it.

I think that most of the world's problems can be summed up with "FOX", "Comcast", and "Jersey Shore"

Like that would have made a difference. If anything, it would have given them more leverage due to it being the provider's fault for not closing a deal for a large group of very upset customers. The subscription rates for the providers from the networks is very small, small enough that most subscribers would pay the negligible difference in their bill without a care in the world.

 

The networks are expanding their reach, what they cover. It isn't just Fox, but Speed Network, the regional Fox Sports Network channels, Versus, and a couple of others, and this is what the viewers want, more sports coverage. Now it's time to pay for it.

Sad but true and hilarious.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Will Lee get his first postseason loss?

[redsoxrules]

Cliff Lee is certainly not fooling Freddy Sanchez , he has 3 doubles off him

[VA Sox Fan]

Will Lee get his first postseason lost?

 

We'll see. Lost or loss, whatever floats your boat.

[d-money]

Everyone's picking texas to win this series but not me.I thought the giants have this magic about them.I had the giants winning the series in 6 games before the start of the series..They have the pitching and seem to get timely hitting.

Ok we'll remember your prediction.

 

SHOCKED by Lee and the Ranger's performance thru 5. Unreal and very bad.
