It's never any fun watching one of your favorite teams
have to walk the post-season plank but the Phillies are better plus they also have a greater chance to bring down the MF Yankees.

Wow...I nearly had to punch a co-worker today who was
giving me crap about how great the Yankees are…he’s Dallas native who’s a Yankee’s fan (and a N.O. Saints fan). Just to show what a dolt he is, he said “hey, Steinbrenner’s nothing like Jerry Jones…Steinbrenner never got into the day to day operations of the team…” It was at that point I decided you cannot argue with mental defectives and left the conversation.

So
There’s a fascinating ongoing pissing match over at BTF, about Dave Cameron’s “what the M’s need to do in 2010” post at USSM…
He proposes dealing Jose Lopez, Mark Lowe, and Jason Vargas for John Danks, which results in the BTF community throwing poop at the idea that the ChiSox would consider that, which results in Cameron coming over and defending the idea, which results in a lengthy discussion about how close in value Danks and Lopez are (with Cameron asserting that they are pretty close, thus making Lopez/Lowe/Vargas a fair return in his mind).
by Adam J. Morris on Oct 21, 2009 7:29 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
I don't know why Vargas would have much value, and
Lowe and Lopez are solid pieces. No way thats enough for a 24 year old LHP with 2 really good seasons in the book.

I forgot to add I do still agree, I wouldn’t trade Danks for a good setup guy, a second baseman who can’t walk and hasn’t hit for any power outside this year, and Jason Vargas.

The Phils need to score some more runs though. 4 innings is probably waaaay too long to ask their bullpen to hold a 3-run lead.

Jason Werth is pretty fucking good.
Hank is 7 runs below a zombie replacement at first base. Do you realize how terrible that is? Zombie’s can’t think, they’re slow, and they’re often ejected from the game for eating opposing baserunners’ brains. - Ben quantifies Hank Blalock

I still don't understand how Charlie Manuel lets Jimmy Rollins hit leadoff if he's such a great manager.
At least he seems to know when to give his pitchers the hook though.

So...
I was reading the post-game-post over at HH, the one Rev blamed all on the umps.
After about 650 posts Rev said that he posted it only to “bait trolls”
I think he was trying to save face due to his bunk ass post.

IIRC, that was what he said after his line about MLB trying to help the Rangers win to tap into the dallas media market
Seems like the Angels, or their fans at least, are always trying to get that “underdog” status they had in 2002 back.

Unfortunately, you’re now doomed to lose the World Series, because the team I’ve been pulling for hasn’t won since 2005.
