2008 MLB Thread

Okay, im getting a little bit pissed of here.

Dodgers at Cubs is on right now, but for some reason its not on TV? What the hell?

ESPN isnt playing it, nor is FOX, even WGN (which is the local station in Chicago) isnt showing the game. AND ITS IN CHICAGO.

What gives, why arent the games on TV? and if they are, what channel are they on (especially the Dodger game)

I hate how the local stations aren't allowed to air the games. It's fucking stupid, IMO. We spend all year listening to Len and Bob calling the games, and then, for the most important games of the year, we have to listen to some random ass announcers who couldn't care less about the teams that are playing. I hate it.

It's this time of year when "baseball fans" come outtta the woodwork.

:dunno:
phillies look good! i think they will take the series. over the rays.
Wouldn't that be cool ! Bring back those memories of '93 !

It's funny - Didn't the Ray's entire team payroll add up to less than A rod's salary ?:1orglaugh :tongue: jus sayin'

that be me! I can't be assed to watch any game be it football or baseball during the year, but come playoffs for either sport I take intrest, provided my team is in it. Bears for football and cubs for baseball.

Chef, imagine if you will cubs vs. sox in the world series :eek: that would have the entire city shut down!!!

Might not happen, I just checked the score...7-2, dodgers in the 9th inning :( FUCK!!!!

This city was completely shut down for the Super Bowl when the Bears were in it a few years ago and also when the White Sox went to the World Series. I can't even imagine what it would be like if both the Cubs and White Sox were in the World Series. This city would implode upon itself with pure glee.

Pure glee, followed by the city ripping itself apart.

Imagine it, the city would be torn between the Cubs and the White Sox. You wouldn't be able to walk down the street in either team's jersey safely...

The city would burn!!! i was at the "play-in" game, it was absolutely incredible, and i was walking up and down 35th street celebrating, and it was insane! people honking, waving Sox flags, high-fiving each other (in the middle of the street as cars passed by!) People were hanging out of cars yelling and screaming in celebration. . . and this was all just because they made the playoffs!

there is a lot of animousity between cubs and sox fans. in all honesty, i think a cubs/sox world series would do more harm than good to the city!

This city gets crazy during playoffs. I ordered a pizza earlier and it took them nearly 2 hours to deliver it because of all the traffic around Wrigley Field.
 
Fuckin' Sox are done.They can't situational hit for shit!What a absolute fucking waste of a good pitching performance from Buehrle.

Oh well,at least the Cubs are gonna get swept tomorrow and I won't have to hear their shit anymore.

I'm moving back to Cleveland. At least their sports teams don't make you believe that you can win anything and then disappoint you constantly.

*Ahem* Always? '05?

To be honest,I knew that the Sox weren't going to do much in the post season.their team is way too one dimensional.I was really hoping that the Red Sox would win the east because we would've had a better chance against them.

Hopefully Kenny makes the right moves in the off season and gets more speed in the lineup.There's way too much station the station hitting,you're not gonna win down the stretch if you always play like that and are waiting for the long ball.
 
zell i hope he makes the right moves as well as they have some good to great pitchers. maybe he should look more closely at what the twins do with less. this could be an all sweep first round.
