Open Playoff Thread, 10/2

I think the Dodgers are a much better team than their 84 wins suggest, and that's exactly the kind of team that can go nuts in the postseason. C'mon, stupid Cubs. Prove me wrong.

I really dislike the White Sox for some reason and I’m hoping the Rays beat them today.

In the Rooting Guide thread...

I explain in great and eloquent detail why it must be Tampa Bay vs. Milwaukee in the Series.

Also, would some sort of multi-plane midair collision involving the Dodgers, both Sox(s) and the Cubs be too much to ask? Also, I’ll need Shane Victorino to be on board one of those flights.

Thanks.

I’d settle for a massive sinkhole to open up at Citizens Bank Park and just swallow Victorino.

If there was a chance for both the Red Sox and the Cubs to be playing in the LA area, we could hope one of the faults down there goes and those old shitty stadiums crumble to the ground, taking all four teams with them.

I hate the Dodgers (duh).
I hate the Cubs. They lost their "loveable loser" image the minute they started shelling out large cash to buy Soriano, Lee, Lilly, etc.; Lous Piniella is a hump. Plus, Ron Cey once played for them..‘Nuff said.
I hate the Sox(s); Bosox just ’cuz and Chisox ’cuz of Pierzpricknochincockgobbler and shameful adoption of Journey song. Guillen is annoying as well.
I hate the Angels; Something about 2002…I forget what exactly. Plus, Scoscia, ex-Dodger.
I don’t hate Philly, just strongly dislike them. The Victorino factor.

Tampa v. Milwaukee in the World Series. Whereupon both teams will fall off the face of the earth, never to be heard from again. It’ll be like 2008 never happened.

I’ve had that too. It’s wonderful!

Probably the most common way to eat it in the land of it’s origin is fry it with small bits of pork and vegetables, covered in spicy sauce. It’s so delicious, that I wept at the ineptitude of all the hippy-style tofu I had eaten until that point.

Awesome! I’m getting ready to brew my own beer in a few weeks and I’ve got a recipe for steam beer.

Fun fact, did you know that Anchor has trademarked the phrase “steam beer” and that’s why you don’t see anyone else making it? It’s basically just a really hoped up lager that isn’t refrigerated during the fermentation process.

I love Anchor Steam, btw.

It did originate in San Francisco, which is cool, but I’d always heard that they TM’d “steam” and that’s why don’t see other people making it. It’s in a little brew book I have.

As an aside, the reason that it is called Liberty Ale is that it was intended to be a one-time brew back during the bicentennial. It was so popular, however, that they ended up making it a mainstay.

I think they TM’d it under Fritz Maytag, who didn’t take over until the 60’s. Back in the OT’s and the 1910’s, it was widely used by others.

The Liberty Ale is great. They gave us that one, the Steam, the Porter, the Summer Wheat (which is completely filtered), and the Barleywine.

Excellent. I’m wondering how hard it would be for everyone to get the same beer for the tastings? Distribution of beer is wacky and can be a regional thing.

Or, we could do a mail thing in which we trade beers with each other. That is, if your state allows you to mail alcohol. I’m sure that VA does.

It would be cool to start a blog about it, too.

I’ve been mostly brewing pale ales at this point, experimenting with hoppiness and different yeasts. I’ve done a couple brown ales that have been well received.

I’m going to buy the equipment to go full grain in the next week or two, and start to experiment with lagers (turning my refrigerator into a chill fermenter).

My dad’s wine is good because his grapes come from Napa. He’s been doing it for almost 25 years. I still tell him he made the wrong career choice.

Miami’s pass defense isn’t very good. So, I’m not sure who to start.

Johnson has been the primary back for the Titans and he’s been seeing more goal line carries lately. I think I agree about Manning but he’s been so blah to start the season.

Thanks, I agree about Manning.

I picked up Steve Slaton for last weeks game and I’m letting him go again this week, I like him a lot. And as a WVU fan, I watched him play college.

How’s your team treating you?

I’d go with Rivers, but it’s tough because Peyton could always, you know, be Peyton.
Carilina’s defense has been pretty good, but Larry is all the Chiefs got and Baltimore’s defense is better than Carolina’s.

Cruel irony

Boss calls me into her office yesterday, tells me I’m being laid off. My last day of work is tomorrow. I ran into her in the kitchen today and said she had bad timing for laying me off. If she’d given me the ax say, earlier in the week, I could be watching these games right now. She laughed. I was making a joke, but still, being laid off isn’t exactly ha ha funny time.
