Rooting order:
1. Cards
2. Rockies
3. Angels
4. Twins
5. Phillies
6. Dodgers
7. Yanks
8. Red Sox

Playoffs?! Playoffs!!! You talking about playoffs?! Hell, I'm just talking about winning a game!!!

Also

angels
dodgers
everyone else can suck it

If the Dodgers didn't have Manny I'd probably have them higher. I like Torre.

Yanks over Phillies

^east coast bias

Yanks over Cardinals.

This will be the first and last postseason that I ever root for the Yankees to win the World Series.

Odds to win the 2009 World Series

Boston Red Sox
11/2

Colorado Rockies
11/1

Los Angeles Angels
15/2

Los Angeles Dodgers
15/2

Minnesota Twins
20/1

New York Yankees
7/4

Philadelphia Phillies
6/1

St. Louis Cardinals
5/1

Of course I am rooting for Rockies only now that Tigers are not in. Going to the game Saturday BTW.

Not sure who I'd root for if they lose. I have a reason to dislike all the other teams:

Cards - beat Tigers for WS recently
Phillies - just won it
Dodgers - Rockies rival, never liked them anyway and don't like Manny
Redsox and Yanks - never liked either
Minny - just eliminated us
Angels - only think I can think of is Weaver because of his brother.

I guess I'll root for the Angels in the AL and Rockies in NL.

Philly up 1-0 on the Rockies
Complete game for cliff lee

Chris berman did the PBP on my radio *fatality*

I like the Angels too, mostly because of the nick adenhart thing

Just heard an interview with Gardenhire, he says that they plan to bunt, bunt, bunt tonight to force CC to field the ball.

Playoff baseball at its finest.

Just turned on the game, has there been any fisting yet?

Having a DH that is a journeyman middle infielder that hit 6 HRs this year is pretty cool.

I hope Minny beats the Yanks, even though it won't happen.

BTW, I bought 4 tickets on ebay to the Rockies game Saturday for $114.50 and sold a pair on craigs list for $90. So I get my pair for 25 bucks. I considered selling the other pair for $90, but I didn't buy them to make a profit (that just happened to be the auction with little time left and a good price on it).

Random Thought: I hate Orlando Cabrera.

Ditto for Swisher

Dick Swisher?

Bon Jovi, sweet!

Also, I think Rauch is related to Marty Feldman

I can't hear/read the name Marty Feldman without at least smiling a lil bit. Abby Normal.

As brutal as Berman is during the HR Derby, he's even worse doing radio PBP

So bad

I can't watch this shit.

I guess I'm a Tigers fan and not a baseball in general fan.

Yeah I can't watch it either... it hurts

Too boring.

Jesus Christ, Sager.

Too boring.

After the Tigs downfall, these games are all pos, imo.

None of these games seem even remotely exciting.

I've said before that baseball is the one sport I can't watch if my favorite team isn't playing.

That's true for me too, Douche.

I feel like there's no such thing as too tough an obstacle with DrRay on my side.

Darling on Nick Punto ...

"he's almost like a gymnast out there"

LOL

Nice baserunning by the Twins


That was awesome

I hate to bring up work at a baseball party Glan, but is there a betting line for tonights game? RSvAngels.

I prolly won't bet much, but maybe that(betting) would spark some interest in some of these cow pies they are televising.

Here's to hoping that Mo saved the ashes from his burning Twins hat and has them immortalized or something somewhere good...for this series anyway.

I think Twins upset the Yanks...or maybe just hoping.

The brim didn't burn all the way. So I still have that.

Yet I find myself rooting for the Yankees.

I honestly can't remember the last time I rooted for the Yanks. Granted, my memory isn't great and that could have been last week, but right now I can't recall it.

Call me crazy, but I'm rooting for A-Rod. The press conference and that whole thing with him kissing his reflection was some of the funniest shit ever.

Yanks are going to lose this series and no pacas for you.

The fact the dump known as the Metrodome is going to host some playoff games really ticks me off.

"fisted towards second"

Other than Mijares, I don't hate the Twins for some reason. They took care of bidness.

I don't like Kubel, John Rauch (and his stupid neck tattoo) or Denard Span.

I don't like any of the Twinks pen, now that I think about it. But I like that they win with a smaller payroll than George and the Yanks.

Especially NATHAN...cough cough

Fuggin Nathan with 2 pitches right down the fricken middle. ARod took care of one and Swisher just missed the other.

"Fisted, straight back"

"Mr. October" Alex Rodriguez

Wow, double play. Twins luck continues.

Don't know how, but I've been able to watch this.

Mildly entertaining.

I haven't been watching the last lil bit, are they showing the Angels game somewhere while this is in OT?

Bases loaded no outs. I'm routing for the Twins because fuck the Yankees.

Fuck this Tigers offense bullshit.

^ NO SHIT...that is exactly what this feels like.

It would be 4-3 is they made the correct call on Mauers fly ball.

Well there ya go. This game was bullgumby cuz of that call.

Anyone else a little sick of players calling their fans the greatest?

We all know they truly don't believe that, or even care about the fans.

They just want the fans to keep paying their salaries.

I've got the best fans of them all, btw.

I've got ceiling fans.

Other than Mijares, I don't hate the Twins for some reason. They took care of bidness.
They are the most annoyingly put together baseball team in history. They consist of 3 over-muscled farm boys and 20 pussy-ass speedsters. While I love small-ball every once in a while, they play it from the first inning through the end of the game.

The Twins, in order of my most hated to most tolerated:
Nick Punto - He hits .081 against every other team, .750+ against the Tigers
Denard Span - Get a real name and stop making routine plays look spectacular
Cuddyer - Eat shit, douchebag
Gardenhire - stop eating you fat piece of shit
Pavano - 72-0 against the Tigers, 0-50 against everyone else.
Nathan - The luckiest pitcher in all of baseball
Crede - You're all kinds of evil - a White Sock and Twin. Fuck you.
Orlando Cabrera - See Crede, Joe
Morneau - You're a badass but I still hate you
Delmon Young - Are you related to Antoine Walker?
Mauer - I hate you because you're a Twin, but I would help pay your salary if it would mean you would become a Tiger.
Liriano - LOL@you.


Maybe I hate the Twins so much because they've just made us their bitch for the last 22 years.

It would be 4-3 is they made the correct call on Mauers fly ball.
Sucks when umpires help dictate a game. I guess the Twins could call that KARMA. They had 3 calls that went their way on Tuesday.

If the Twins and Bosox could be swiftly escorted from the playoffs, then this actually might be enjoyable.

I forgot Crede was a Twin. That dude was by far my least favorite White Suck.

Phils/rocks postponed due to cold/snow.

My Cards have some work to do.

Cards are fucked.

Can they recover? It appears unlikely.

It cracks me up that the Twins are in an uproar after the blown call which COULD HAVE lead to a run. I'm surprised they didn't say anything about Inge being hit by a pitch that WOULD HAVE lead to a run. And the national media is all over this now as well.

Go fuck yourself, Twins.

Tahoe's Twins are going to get their asses kicked tonight and sent packing along with the Red Sux.

Just like Tahoe's Lions +10.5 did today?

The BoSox can suck it. I can't think of a better, more painful way for them to lose and at home, to boot.

Now I hope my Yanks can finish off my dream daily double and knock the twins out.

^ It happened.

Bye Twins! Thanks for showing up!

thetwins81 is crushed.

Went to last nights game, it was fooking cold. So glad MLB lets this TV coverage dictate things so we had the temp below freezing to start the game. Then it goes 4+ hours because the dipshit pitchers for Philly took forever. Topping it off was a blown call that lead to the sac fly in the 9th to win it. I'm in a pretty foul mood after my 4 hours of sleep I got.

Rockies should just give up.

What's the score?

Rockies scored ...3 or so in the bottom of the 8th to go up 4-2 and the Phillies scored 3 in the top of the 9th to go back ahead.

Phillies up 5-4, looks like I'll be 300 alpacas richer tomorrow.

Yes!

I'm surprised Philly didn't sweep.

I'm surprised Philly didn't sweep.

Why? The Rockies had their closer blow the last two games. They also had their best two hitters with men in scoring position and two outs in the 9th in both games.

They could easily have won this series.

^Colorado fan.

Traitor.

^ISWYDT

"Fisted towards 2nd"

Thome in a Dodger uni seems strange.

Bored.

But go Phillies!

Hate that all these games are on at 8.

Not that I'd watch if they were on earlier.

An A-bomb from AAA-rod

I don't think I'll watch a single world series game. Hate the Yankees and the Phillies won last year (and beat my Rockies). Nothing to root for really.

I hope the Angels can come back, but they won't.

Joe Buck blows.

^ You blow!

^ You blow!

You like Joe Buck? Anything else you want to reveal that you shouldn't?

No U!

Watched the top of the 1st and some of the bottom of the 1st before I turned it off. I can't do this shit.

Also

angels
dodgers
everyone else can suck it

:emo kid:

Ozzie Guillen to be getting a broadcasting gig on FOX.

Awful.

That's a brilliant idea, if the goal is to not be able to understand the analyst.

Joe Buck, Tim McCarver, and Ozzie Guillen in one booth. Tahoe is salivating.

Yanks over Phillies

^east coast bias

I win either way.

Either MY Yankees win and my prediction is gold or MY Phillies win and I get 4-to-1 odds on my sportsbook wager.

This is going to be a pretty good series.

Yanks in 6 or 7.
