They are going to get splattered in the World Series.
I think that the longer the ALCS goes on the greater the chance the Rockies will come out flatter than a pancake in the WS.

lol
Not upset at all that the D-Backs lost, are we? or is it the Phillies?
:)
21 out of 22. Want to make that bet?
Are you kidding? I hate the Phillies. I danced a jig when they lost.Quote:

21 of 26 sounds good too but they will still have lost the World Series.Quote:

Maybe. I've seen these things go either way, in the past. Tough to call without knowing who their going to play, but I think both the Indians or the Red Sox can beat them. You might be right.
Same thing that happened in 2001. THe Seattle Mariners had some downtime after a week of not playing because of 9/11, they were never the same team afterwards.
It is just tough to come back after having so much time off.Quote:

If I bet on officiated sports I would not be betting the Rockies.Quote:

You insulting our team now, boomboom? That's it, you're not allowed to be a Mariners fan anymore!Quote:

Or not. We'll know in a couple weeks whether it helped or hurt.
Do you even remember the 80's, how could I ever insult the Mariners :rolleyes: :DQuote:

Barely, I was 3. :D But I'm not insulting them.
Agreed...Kinda a nice story to have the Rockies make it this far but I dont think they really belong in the WS. I say its finally time for the Indians to win again...but its interesting to watch a 7-0 ball game suddenly turn to 7-3 with back to back to back HR's. Cant count out the Bo-Sox yet.
you don't remember when they were an embrassment. :eek:Quote:

I would say the Red Sox are "done" too...:(
interesting, sides with the threads creator

So boomboom, what team are you a fan of now that you've been kicked out of the Mariners fanbase?
I will never be kicked out of the Mariner Fan base...How can I the CEO of the Mariner Fan base be kicked out....I have been a fan since 86' watched some horrible teams...but with a lot of talent. ;)
This Rockies team is similar to the 95' Mariners...that team was so special, They went something like 20-3 in September to force a 1 game playoff. I think Edgar hit something like 1.000 lol :D
So you started watching baseball when you were three? I doubt it. And you got kicked out because you insulted the Mariners which is a no-no.
actually 3 1/2 I started watching with my Dad...so yes. Summer of 86. We used to go to 40-60 games a year in the 80s. In the early 90s we went to around 20-30, and after that a little less around 15. Since Safeco has opened I might go to 5 a year. Tickets are way to much now days.
1987 was the first full year I watched. I remember Phil Bradley's year... He stole a lot of bases that year... Alvin Davis was the first Mariner Superstar....
You can insult a team all you want, doesn't mean that you are not a fan, or can be part of some sort of transparent club. A true fan criticizes there teams when they don't win. The last 4 years have been simply unacceptable. I really don't know how Bavacy still has a job.... If you think everything is all right with the Mariners? You really have some problems...
Yeah, I know, I'm just messing around with ya' bud. :p
Excaly what I was thinking when I was watching the game This MoringQuote:

Apparently yea, you should have!
I'm definitely happy that Boston won, but I'm still disappointed at such a poor series. The Rockies at least make it close in game 2 and 4...
you bet!!Quote:
