Keith Law

hates the Rangers, imo.

I hate insider articles.

I love Keith’s insight, but I’m not paying ESPN money for a shitty magazine subscription and a few amount of articles from decent writers.

That said, yay! Keith motherfucking Law thinks the Rangers will win the west.

Naw

it wouldn’t. We’re not going to lose. Yankee ass will be smeared all over Arlington. Elvis Andrus will overawe Jeter so much that he’ll leave his jump-throw dazzle shit at home. The entire lineup is going to need Viagra to even think about facing Feliz. And then they’ll remember that we also have Holland, Scheppers and Ogando and there will be a mad dash for the shitter.

Feliz will not have a uniform number. His jersey will just say “Sit down” on the front and back.

A week of watching Jeter and Andrus both play in the same games on national TV would be hilarious.

Think it would be clear enough that casual fans who still think he deserved his Gold Glove would doubt themselves a little?

by philkid3 on Apr 2, 2010 10:08 PM CDT up reply actions  

No.

Confirmation bias would mean that each team’s fans would jump on the slightest miscue from either player shouting a collective “Aha!”

If you were to tell me right now...

that the Rangers would win the West, but lose in the first round to the Yankees I’d take it.

I think I would actually take several years or so of dominating the division and getting squashed in the playoffs, a la the Angels

Over a one and done World Series run.

Even if it meant we never won the world series, I’d still take 6-7 years of quality baseball over 1 year of fleeting glory.

Disagree with you there...

give me the WS win.

I want the Rangers to reach that zenith just once in my lifetime and my baseball soul will die fulfilled.

I don't

Multiple division titles in a decade mean that you run your organization right, and it payed off. The playoffs are a crapshoot. It’s usually the team that goes in the hottest wins. A WS is great and all, but I’d take sheer dominance over a division and maybe a few ALDS titles and 1 ALCS over a WS victory and back to mediocrity.

This is approaching with far more logic than I can.

I pride myself on trying to be a logical baseball fan, but all the logic in the world can’t control my emotions towards the Rangers.

by philkid3 on Apr 3, 2010 12:31 PM CDT up reply actions  

Yup.

The postseason is a crapshoot, and WS wins are fleeting. I’d rather be a respectable franchise than be stuck with nothing but the glory of a solitary year to re-live over and over.

A lot of the ESPN people pick the Rangers..

sadly most pick the Angels including Dick Durrett.

Since ESPN people are always wrong, I'm not sure how to feel about this.

If its good that they’re wrong about the Angels, or bad that the Mariners are apparently going to win.
