I think
I’m going to miss GDTs almost as much as the games themselves.

Ahhh
Joe Buck and Tim McCarver. How I’ve missed you.
Anyone see any of the ESPN interviews with Timmy about his comments on Ramirez? He looks awful.
Nothing pithy here. Please move long.

who looks awful? Manny or Tim?

I want the phillies to win
Just because I like Chase Utley and is ultra compact death swing.

3/40
the preceding post was a great success.

actually
i have no idea.
the preceding post was a great success.

My guess would be
Something akin to the Carlos Silva deal. Of course I say that without looking up his current contract – maybe I should go do that.

He's in the last year of a 4/36 deal...
I’d say 4/50.

The Phillies
Have got to lay off that damn sinker. They’re getting themselves out at this point swinging at it.

Tim and Buck
Listening to them bitch about Manny and going into all the details about how he pushed the elderly traveling secretary down. I don’t approve, but seriously, if people are watching this games, they’re likely baseball fans and know what happened 5 months ago. That’s my problem with these assholes – they think they’re educating the viewers about shit we heard about months ago. Gives you a whole new respect for guys like Vin Scully who actually comes up with new things to say and information.
God I hate these guys. Can’t wait for tomorrow with Buck Martinez, who’s really good and Chip Carey doesn’t irritate the hell out of me.

Dodgers winning
LAMuscleFag must have a hard on

So it appears that LSB members
and the favorite team to win the NLCS is sort of split 50/50 on who wins.

I'm rooting for the Phillies
Because I don’t like Manny or the Dodgers, and because Cole Hamels and Chase Utley are some of my favorite players outside of the Rangers. The Phils are probably my favorite NL team.

I'm anti-Dodgers
Because being anti-Manny makes me feel better about having been pro-Red Sox during the ALDS.

I don't think I really have a preference in this series.
Maybe the Phillies have a slight edge, but I’m “meh” on it.

Looks like Rollins might have been safe?

Greatest pinch hitter?
I thought that belonged to Cat.

Okay
That’s a play Pedro Feliz should have made (the Martin grounder).

Any bets on what could happen
when Lidge comes in?
by jonthefon on Oct 9, 2008 9:44 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Well, he was 41-41 in saves in the regular season...
Probably the best closer in the NL this year, if not in baseball. Got some good young hitters coming up though… should be interesting.

I'm only betting
that it’ll be CJ-riffic.

As an Astros fan
you can never be sure what Lidge’ll do, even at 41-for-41.
I’m hoping he doesn’t blow up though, I’m still fond of him considering he proved my belief that the trade sending him to the Phillies was a bad one.

Heart stopped
momentarily on that flyout by Kemp.

One down, three to go. Great game.

Foolish Dodgers
The should’ve batted Juan Pierre, the most expensive 4th OF in the history of the game. He could’ve been this postseason’s Scott Posednik.
by chrisR on Oct 9, 2008 9:59 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
yeah
well, it was a close and good game. Both pitchers pitched well. I still like the Dodgers to win this series. But, it’s going to 7 games

Don’t worry, Adam. I won’t tell anyone.

Cole Hamels
he’s a pretty good looking guy. However didn’t that parting the hair in the middle go out of style in the 90’s

Rafters won in extra innings
Borbon and Andrew Laughter did good
