  1. A) How many Rays fans are there? Exactly. If the WS coincided with the Florida-Georgia game (it won't this year), that would be AMAZING. Closest thing to TB and ATL you can get in college football
  2. I was actually thinking about this last night. A year ago this weekend I was in New Orleans for the football team for a game against Tulane. The pictures popped up in my phone since it was the anniversary. I remember talking with our crew that went about going to a Pelicans preseason game that night, so we could see Zion. We didn't end up going, but that was THIS season. Zion just finished his rookie year, and that was a full calendar year ago. Wild.
  3. Dodgers up to their usual tricks. Happy Choketober everyone
  4. Oh so he was the guy in the SNB booth with Jon Miller and Orel Hershiser. I thought so
  5. I'm rooting for the Dodgers and I have no shame in it. Mookie is still my favorite player in the league, and probably always will be, and a Dodgers win means that a WS champion would have attended my high school in small town boondocks CT
  6. Yes. They certainly aren't experts at manufacturing runs or playing small ball. But, to play Devil's Advocate, that mindset has become the new norm in the game. It is telling, however, that the 4 teams left aren't really HR or bust type teams. The Astros aren't playing that way anymore. Anybody is capable of going deep, but they don't rely on it. Same for the Dodgers. They just have some much offensive firepower that 2-3 balls are bound to go out every night. In the not too distant future, I think the majority of teams will be built like that, or at least the ones with the money to do so
  7. There is absolutely no reason why the Yankees and Dodgers should NOT have played in the 2019 and 2020 World Series. My former roommate, a Yankees fan, wants Boone fired and replaced by Showalter. I don't know about Showalter, but I agree about canning Boone. He has shown time and again that he does not make good managerial decisions when it matters the most. Yes, this team has been injured for like the last 20 years in a row, but they won 100 games last year and started 16-6 this year. They have the talent no matter who is in the lineup. And, for that matter, if the Braves beat the Dodgers in the NLCS, Roberts should be fired as well. That team has way too much talent to not make it.
  8. Here comes the Ji-Man!!!!
  9. Advantage Yankees, just like it would have been if they beat us in game 4 in 2018
  10. As a fan, you're terrified of falling behind
  11. The one year I root for the Yankees they let me down. Come on Monty
  12. If you ain't first you're last
  13. Giancarlo non si puo stoparlo That one might have come down in Tijuana. LFG
  14. Cool story. With any luck I'll still be playing ball at your age, but I can't even picture what that will be like
  15. There was a pair of boy girl twins in my HS class that also live down the street with the last name Bator. People had fun with that. People had fun with my name too
  16. Oh, I've said numerous times before that I don't want him on my team. Don't worry yourself
  17. Talk dirty to me /heart eyes emoji
  18. At least he's not a master baiter
  19. Yep. I'm with you 100%. In mid-August, I thought a full rebuild was necessary, but I like the way we looked over the last month of the season. That scenario is no certainty. I don't think Sale will be the same guy, and I really don't know what to expect out of ERod. I personally think this offseason is one of the most important we've ever had, at least in my lifetime
  20. Born into it, but I'm only 21 (for 10 more days). First stuff I remember is bits and pieces of the 2004 ALCS. I remember talking about it in kindergarten
  21. Now that the Yanks have a 1-0 lead, being in a pitcher's park really helps them, since the Rays aren't exactly an offensive juggernaut. They're going to need to manufacture runs, which is hard to compete against a HR driven offense. I don't think the Yankees sweep either way, but it is over with a win tonight. Interested to see the Rays strategy tonight. How long do they leave Morton in there, and I wouldn't be surprised to see them play a little small ball if they don't get to Deivi early
  22. Great start to the series!
  23. Snell makes Price look like Sale
  24. We have Orsillo doing the A's series on TV, and OB doing it on radio. Kinda funny
  25. May not be a given to win 1...
