Yeah I tend to tune in with my roommates at about the 7th or 8th inning. I can't stand watching a baseball game all the way through; baseball's only exciting toward the end. Glad to see the Cubs finally making good on their "Wait til next year" promises.

Of course, I remain a Yankees fan. God help me if they play the Cubs, because my roommates are bigger than me and could kick my ass. :)

Awright Yankees! Start spreading the motherfuckin news!

All right, celebrations over, now to concentrate on the ALCS. It looks good either Way. The REd Sox are pitching Pedro Martinez on Monday and he wont be readily availiable if they win, and Oakland has lost Mulder and Hudson to injuries. Oaklands playoff history against the Yankees aint so good either.

My campus went nuts. Just got back from a good old fashioned mob-walk. The mob started by blocking off an intersection on my street. We then began walking down the street, then saw cops, and everyone pretty much started bolting to the quad. Once there we overran the bridge. Then they started heading for the football field (about a mile walk) and so I came back. Waiting to see if there's anything else interesting going on right now.

Before the money grubbing fuckers went on strike a decade ago, I'd be histatic that the Cubbie's are going all the way. Now, meh, baseball has lost it's appeal.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

Yes, you can't argue against a team which has won 1/4 of all the World Series ever played. MWHAHAHAHA!! :)

I would give anything to see the Braves and the Yankees in the World Series. Not only would it give me a chance to see Clemens' last post-season, but I have a friend from New York who's a die-hard Yankees fan. Flame on! :twisted:

They have been, quite a few times in recent memory, I'm pretty sure. I remember the Braves winning once (that was in the Dark Age of The Yankees, mid-90's I think), and then the Yankees began soundly trouncing everyone again.

Yes. The Yankees exist only to be occasionally peeled off the heel of the Phillies, who then go and lose to the Expos 453-0.

Ah, nothing like watching the Braves get sent home to cry for yet another year. If your team can't win, there's always taking pleasure in the suffering of teams you hate.

I'm a baseball fan and I don't loathe the Yankees as much as I live here anyway. IMO, both teams here sucks as the Yankees need a good hitting lineup and GODDAMMIT it NEEDS A GOOD BULLPEN!!!

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

26 World Champions and playing in nearly half of the world series, yeah I can see where fns of other teams would be jealous.

YOu know you Red Sox fans go through every season chanting "Yankees Suck" when the Yankees win the season Series with Boston on a regular basis.

By your logic, If the Yankees Suck, the Boston Takes it up the ass with a broken broomstick heheheh.

Dat so Durandal? While my school here in Socal isnt quite a 4:1 ratio Its at least 2:1 and its nice weather year round so that I dont have to flirt with women in parkas and snowpants. (plus these are the hot California girls too dumb or too lazy to go to UCLA and USC, they're creme de la creme) Oh, and hot women love Marine Science also, :wink:
