OT: Rangers vs Indians

by AirJordan on Oct 8, 2008 12:22 AM CDT Comment 9 comments

Now I know it's only Ocotober 8th but it's never too early to talk about the Rangers home opener. Simple question: Will the Rangers win?

Now time for some hot sports opinions: The Phillies will win it all.

The Rangers will trade for Buchholz.

The Ravens will win the AFC.

The Stars will win the Stanley cup.

The Cowboys will lose in the 1st round again.

The Mavs will make it to the West finals.

The Ukraine will, Oh wait.... Ukraine will..... Ah, who the hell cares?

That should meet the 75 word limit.

But (tongue in cheek)

Can’t vote yet. Many reasons there may not be a home opener.

- Hicks is forclosed by Middle Eastern investment banks and the team is moved to Dubai
- A post election nuclear winter descends and MLB delays the start until July 1
- The date is switched to a double header with Liverpool vs. Manchester going first, and after extra periods and a shootout, it’s the next day already
- Prompted by economics, salaries are reduced 50% and the MLBPA goes on strike
- Randy Galloway is scheduled to throw out the first pitch, and all ticketholders call in to cancel and ask for refunds
- Hurricane Cloyd forms over Lake Texoma and moves south on April 5.

Hey, I’ll pick later, when rosters are finalized and a rotation is set.

I am waiting for the day

when Hurricane Vladimir lays waste to Savannah.

When it happens, I will be sitting on my living room floor drinking tab, cackling gleefully as I watch Geraldo Rivera attempting to scale the eyewall.

Dubai Rangers

Bet they’d have a hell of a ballpark.

In essentials, unity. In non-essentials, liberty. In all things, love.

Where are you at?

At this rate, he’ll be throwing 107-110 by 2012

The Dodgers will win it all
The Rangers will not trade for Buchholz (someone from Florida instead)
I could care less about the Ravens
The Stars will make it to the Finals
The Mavs will finish between 6-8th in the West and lose in the 1st round
