Title: Postseason Baseball
Post by: spongemonkey13 on October 01, 2005, 07:21:30 pm
Of course I am super psyched that the Yankees clinched today against the Red Sox. Now I am going for Cleveland for the wildcard so Boston can't even make it :laugh: In the National League side I think St. Louis has the best chance. Go Yankees.

Ugh... so much for that hope that the Yankees miss the playoff.  So yet another postseason with their presence.  Ick.

Anyway, I'm going for the Padres to win it.  Yes, the Padres.  They have no chance in you-know-where, but there isn't any other team I'd like to see win it.  It's going to be the Yanks and Cards in the World Series, though.  Yankees prevailing.  Hooray.

I want the Phillies to win it all, with the White Sox being the runner-up. If the Phillies miss? Astros over White Sox.

Go Reds!  Oh wait...

Anyway, I don't care who wins, as long as it ISN'T the Yankees. :P

If the Cards take the series, it would be so incredibly awesome. This is the last year in the current Busch Stadium, and I think it would be a neat way to say thanks to it.

I'm rooting for the Cardinals to win it all, and I believe they will. Here's how things are going to go down:
St. Louis  
San Diego

Houston
Atlanta                      
         
Chicago
Boston

New York
Anaheim
-------------------------
St. Louis
Atlanta

Boston
Anaheim
--------------------------
St. Louis
Anaheim

That's right, I chose the Angels to beat the Yankees AND Red Sox. Is it because I'm crazy? Maybe, but they're a very good team and absolutely nobody is talking about them. I think they'll sneak by and beat these teams.

Post by: Kenny Blankenship on October 02, 2005, 12:13:26 pm
Alright... so here are MY predictions... assuming that the Astros and the Red Sox will clinch today... oh, and forget everything I've said before...

Padres over the Cardinals
Astros over the Braves

Red Sox over White Sox (OMG!!  BATTLE OF THE SOX!!!)
Yankers over Angels

Padres over Astros
Yankers over the Sox

World Series:
Padres over Yankers

Yes.  A barely .500 team will win the World Series.  MARK MY WORDS.  The power of their horrifically ugly puke colored road jerseys will be too much for the opposition to handle.  GO PADRES!!!!!!

Yes... because besides the fact that they're playing as well as anybody right now, you all know that the Padres will prove victorious...

Whaat, how the hell did I pick the Yanks to win..?

As long as the Yankees do well and the Boston Red Sucks are illiminated in round 1 I'll be happy.

I guess if I have to make a choice on who I want to win, it would be the Cardinals, but I just really don't care.  Baseball doesn't interest me all that much.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Padres lost.  There goes my fantastic World Series pick...

Sox/Sox right now.  Apparently the Sox are winning.  Can't see the game right now, but looks like the Sox opened up a big lead in the 1st.  Go Sox.

Oh, and the Angels better whoop the Yankers tonight...

Nice analysis there. Yeah... the Red Sox are getting killed right now, but you know what?  (What!?!) They're going to win the series because my predictions will be RIGHT.

The Red Sox lost the first game and the Yankees are winning so far :biggrin:

Just like last year, I'm rooting for two teams. Anyone who beats the Red Sox. And finally, the Yankees :)

You sir are a smart man.

EDIT: Atlanta lost 10-5. Oh well at least Boston is 0-2  :laugh: It's still tied in the Yankee game.

Post by: ssj4gogita4 on October 10, 2005, 05:27:23 pm
Yup...Astros won. They came back from a 6-1 deficit and while Tim Hudson was doing so well. I believe both teams used every relief pitcher they had available which totaled 12 or 13. It went into 18 innings and was a very exciting game. I was listening to the 17th and 18th inning in the car. I'm kinda disappointed they took out Berkman for a bit...

I'm perfectly happy.  Who knew that Colon could go down in the 1st and they'd still win?

Yankees + Loss = Roger Happy.

Now, I don't care who wins the Series, because the Yankees are gone.

Matsui blew it. I was literally screaming at my tv 'DONT GROUND OUT!' 'DONT POP OUT!' 'AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!' 'WTF WAS THAT?, PULL A DOUBLE PLAY!'

I'm gonna have to root for the White Sox to keep my promise, any team that beats the Red Sox :tongue:

Actually, I bet I will be in a gray hoodie, with the hood up, a pink hat under that, gloves, and hot chocolate. I'll be on the second terrace, First base line, near the electronic scoreboard.

Game 1: Angels.  Sweet.

Oh, and my revised predictions: Angels over Sox, Cards over Astros, and Cards over Angels.  Which means that the Cards will probably get swept by the Astros now, but still...

What a horrible call from the home plate umpire at the whitesox game. It was clearly caught. But then again...the catcher should've tagged him anyway.

From what i'm hearing the umpire appeared to signal the batter out... either way it sounds like the Angels got screwed on that deal

Hooray for the White Sox. :)

I'd like to see them win the Series just because they haven't won it in years.

But I really don't care who wins it.
Title: Postseason Baseball
Post by: ssj4gogita4 on October 17, 2005, 12:56:50 pm
They havent won since 1917? World War I of course...but the year escapes my mind.

Anyways, Astros will be going to the world series as well. Congrats to them.

Post by: Roger on October 17, 2005, 02:01:56 pm
The fact that it's Astros vs. White Sox is what's going to bother me.

I like Houston, but I want to see Chicago win because they haven't in a long time.

Ergh.  Forget it.  I don't care.  XD

Title: Postseason Baseball

It looks like the Astros might win it.  5-1 bottom of the 7th. If the Astros make it I'll go for them. I really have no opinion anymore now that my team is out.
Title: Postseason Baseball
Post by: ssj4gogita4 on October 19, 2005, 07:53:40 pm
Top 8th :)

Oswalt is one heck of a pitcher in this game. Over 115 pitches...
Title: Postseason Baseball
Post by: Kenny Blankenship on October 19, 2005, 08:07:18 pm
I  jinxed the Cardinals beforehand by saying they were going to win.  I just changed my prediction 10 minutes ago.  Now the Astros are surely jinxed, and will lose... of course, by saying this, they might win, but now that I say that, they'll lose... but now that I'm back to thinking they'll lose, they'll win.  But of course now that they're winning, they'll lose...

Oh nevermind.
Title: Postseason Baseball
Post by: Roger on October 19, 2005, 08:14:37 pm
Bottom of the 9th.  Astros up 5-1.

Scratch that.  Astros win.

Post by: Kenny Blankenship on October 19, 2005, 08:37:51 pm
I was going to write how FOX jinxed the Astros by pimping the Astros/Sox series before they won, but then they did win... making my point moot, so...
Title: Postseason Baseball
Post by: Spider-Boogie on October 21, 2005, 07:56:00 am
I think this is going to be one heck of a series. I'll say Chicago in 7, with all low scoring games (except for game 5).
Title: Postseason Baseball

Okay...but it doesn't change anything.  It was still a grand slam, and it still counts.

White Sox win on a home run in the bottom of the ninth by a guy who didn't hit a home run this year.
