Good News everybody!

Steve Phillips thinks the Phils are going to win the Series thus the Rays will inevitably win.

So, if the Phils win,

does Snelling get a ring since he logged at bats during the season?

hmmm.

well, I know shares are voted on, but rings might be different ….

So this is where everyone is. . . that whole "World Series" thing.

My brain says Rays, but my heart says Phillies. I just love me some Jamie Moyer.

After that touching bipartisan moment to remind us why baseball is so American,

I would love nothing more for Fox’s ratings than to see a 2nd inning mound brawl.

This is fucking awesome. I'm actually really excited about the World Series.

If I were eating RC’s food right now, I might go into a happiness coma.

At least he’s dumb and kinda fun instead of dumb and angry about everything in the universe. God I hate Buck Martinez so much.

Philadelphia is one the damned 3 when it comes to sports, Cleveland-Philly-Seattle

If the Rays win here, Tampa will be one of the most successful non Boston cities this decade.

Rays, and I'd prefer a Moyer win...

But I put money on Rays going 4-0 so I’d be happy with Moyer having a good start and a loss

Tough to get too frustrated about pussy hits when you're walking this many guys.

Kaz was lucky to get out of the last inning with no runs allowed.

by Teej on Oct 22, 2008 6:23 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Standard Kazmir game.

Give up some runs in the first inning, settle down a bit and start to look dominant, then leave after five innings.

If only I had the patience....

to sit through one game of McCarver and itemize his nonsense innning by inning.
Yet I don’t mute him and turn on the radio even though I know I could.
I hate him and yet he IS playoff baseball to me in this strange (but strong) nostalgic way.

I'm serious

FOX broadcasts a game every week, and every playoff game is shown. CBS (literally) used to show as few games as possible, ABC/NBC blacked out local telecasts on weeknights and then only showed one LDS.

Nowhere near as bad as goddamned KOMO radio.

Don’t run your commercials too long, then have Rizzs play it out like the action is just happening. My god I hate that.

He wouldn't have to do it if they would return to the game in a timely manner.

Even NASCAR has the sensibility to split the screen and cut back to action when commercials play, if something big happens. If you’re radio (I worked in radio for years), you cut out of the commercial and assure your paying clients you will run their spot again. No excuse.

To be more clear,

those clients pay for usually three weeks of broadcast time. It is up to the station and the client to decide how often the spots run, and when.
