What are your predictions for the World Series? I'm curious.

As awesome as it would be to see the Dodgers playing against the Angels in the World Series, I just don't think they have the depth that the Phillies have. And the Yankee's in my opinion I just don't see beating out the Angels in the ALCS.
So my prediction, Angels vs Phillies.

Im saying Phillies vs Yankees. But i would totally rather see Phillies vs Angles.

Its the championships, best vs the best, anything could happen.

For sure. Besides that, I just don't think the Yankee's diserve it. For both the fact that I just hate the ball club, and also because I don't think they are good enough to beat the Angels or the Phillies.

I hope Manny doesn't score one run the whole series against the Phillies. I hate that dude so much, hes a cockboy

Haha, it's kind of like last year. Nobody was really hitting homers, but Manny came along for the Dodgers and made some runs happen.

I don't care for him either.

Phil's took it, despite Manny hitting a 3? run homer. Carlos Ruiz hit a 3 run shot, then i fell asleep at the top of the 7th, but i heard my boy Ibanez hit another 3 run shot to clutch the win. Final was 8-6 i think.

Exactly what I was going to say. And what happened to the "Lets Talk Baseball" thread?

I took the sticky down, and put this up here, seems more approprite at this time.

So pissed about yesterday. Pedro Martinez throw 7 shut out innings, than Utley did the same thing as yesterday and threw the ball over Howard at first base twoards the dugout. Than Chan Ho came in and loaded the bases and i lost all hope, lost 2-1.

Atleast we split in LA. Cliff Lee tomorrow, they don't stand a chance.

Bottom second, 4-0 Phil's. 4 runs in the first inning, Howard had a triple for 2 RBIs and Jason Werth hit a 2 run homer, so sick.

Phillies won 11-0. Cliff Lee pitched 8 shutout inning than Durbin closed it in the 9th. Dodgers must feel so salty. Hopefully we can take the next 2 games this easy

So bummed, Angels are down 2-0 in the series. We just aren't swinging out bats, making fielding errors. This is typical. This is what we have done in playoffs the last five years. Play amazingly through the season, and choke in the playoffs. Well, we still have five more games in the ALCS to go, so hopefully we can pick up the pace...

Still don't think the Yankee's deserve to go to the World Series.

Yeah i saw some of the highlights yesterday. 2nd base totally fucked that one play, like real bad haha. I guess i can't say much though, our second base made the same mistake twice.

Phils won it too, the Angels game was unreal. Vladi and Kendrick have had dead bats up until today. Kendrick was running the show though.

Can't believe the Phil's took it bottom of the ninth. It was so good. Due to TB's black taco commercials, i now refer to Ryan Howard as Black Taco.

Haha, that commercial is so retarded.
Looking forward to todays game. Just hoping Kazmir can pitch more than five innings before giving up some runs...
But have a chance to tie this series with the Yanks at 2.

Yeah. Hoping the Angles play a decent game, im gonna try to watch some of it.

edit: I started watching the game in the 3rd inning. If either of those teams are gonna be playing as sloppy as they were in the WS, i don't think they stand a chance against the Phillies. Yankees game was pretty much all hits. Those umpires were terrible too. What the hell was going on at 3rd base, there was clearly 2 outs outs on the Yankees, i don't know what the fuckk that ump was looking at.

Haha, seriously. And when they called Swisher out for "leaving the base too early." I even admitted that was an incredibly dumb call. But the double play tags from Napoli, that was bullshit, neither of them had their foot on the bag when Napoli tagged them both. Then there was the tag at 2nd that they called safe, when he was clearly out by a foot. Aybar had buried his hands into the clay and they still got the safe call.

I think those calls set the tone for the game. Sadly a majority of those retarded calls were in favor of NY. It was just horrible. And we just weren't swinging the bats again. Now we have to take three straight in order to advance. Two in NY and then game 7 at home in Anaheim. Angels have their work cut out for them now.

Haha i wish them luck, but I don't see them pulling that off. If the Phils win tonight were going the world series, im pumped. I wanna drive home from school and watch the game with my friends so bad, got class at 8:30 tomorrow though. If im in the same situation for the world series and wanna go home, fuckk school im going home haha.
