PrintJust use this one for Saturday, too. Save the Earth, and all that.... Hey, at least I updated the widgets!
A part of me is actually glad that I'm not watching the Giants lose in the playoffs. It'd kill me when they'd do well for 162 games, and then roll over in a handful of games.
A much larger part of me knows that I would sell various body parts and/or family members to get the Giants back to the playoffs.
Go Cubs!

Is it morally wrong to root for the Dodgers to make it to the national league championship series or the World Series, so that they can get really close to winning, have it in the bag, and then lose and be absolutely crushed for the next fifteen to twenty-five years? Is it wrong to root for the Dodgers if underneath you are really rooting for their ultimate demise?
Ugh, Radnich had a whole bit on rooting for the dodgers today. “If you’re a Giants fan, it’s your division, it’s your league. You should want the dodgers to win….”
Consider the source of course… but geez.

Fun facts
As we head into games 3 of both Phillies-Brewers and Dodgers-Cubs here are some facts.
Teams that won game one in the NLDS before this season were 23-3. Meaning 3 teams that won game 1 lost the series. One is the 1999 Houston Astros which lost to the Atlanta Braves. The other two times were by one NL franchise. This franchise was managed by a former Dodgers outfielder who won 103 games as a rookie manager in 1993. He is also the manager whose team’s 1st baseman saved that manager’s young son during game 5 of the 2002 World Series and is now the manager of the Cincinnati Reds.

Agreed. I am embarrassed to admit that, until now, I didn’t realize that the Phillies had so many players that I like. Eyre, So Taguchi, etc.
Really, outside of Brett Myers and Shane Victorino, it’s a pretty likable team.
Also, maybe Myers and Victorino will be involved in a bizarre on-field collision that takes them off of the team for the rest of the playoffs.
Myers and Victorino can die
I like Jimmy Rollins, Ryan Howard, and Jamie Moyer. I dislike Chase Utley because he’s a dead ringer for a douchebag ex of mine. But otherwise, I don’t really dislike anyone on the team.

Swearapalooza! Watch how many things I can throw at my television-apalooza!
"While conservatives tell you 'leave things alone and no one will lose,' and liberals tell you 'interfere a lot and no one will lose,' baseball says 'someone will lose.' Not only says it - but insists upon it! ... Democracy is lovely, but baseball's more mature." BVCE supports SF Dugout and Manny Burriss.

Dodgers/Red Sox would just cause me to put my head in the oven.

Go Red Sox!!!
Shot me, I’m the resident Red Sox fan here. (Although part of me wouldn’t mind if they lose so that ESPN could be depressed. Hell I have my two titles. Now if only the Giants could win, I could die happy)
A gamer does NOT wear a foam finger, a dork does.
I wager I’ll get hanged for expressing my enthusiastic attraction to Josh Beckett, but he’s the only thing (the ONLY THING) keeping me from projectile vomiting through this entire series.

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I can’t wait until the playoffs are on FOX. No more Frank TV spots!
I hate the Red Sox almost as much as I hate the Dodgers.
Like BVCE, I dread the inevitable Dodgers-Red Sox matchup in the Series.

It feels like every playoff game at Fenway the last few years lasts over five hours.
No, my Crazy Crab bobblehead is not for sale.
Let me be the first to say it: Jason Bay looks a bit like Grant.

Predicting tomorrow's time of game
7 hours

Plus, tomorrow’s game starts an hour later than this one did.
Have fun with that, Red Sox fans.

What an asshole
I’m watching highlights of the White Sox-Rays. Wise was stealing 2nd, AJ subtly stuck his bat out to try and distract Navarro. The Rays should of hit that asshole in the head for that.
