Baseball

[Piz0wn0reD!!!!!!]

It seems that a LOT of 2+2ers are into baseball. Why is that? They need a sports forum (not for betting).

[The Dude]

Just be glad we don't take over every forum with our baseball posts. We could, you know.

[Piz0wn0reD!!!!!!]

lol

[The Dude]

Hmm. I'm not sure what's funny, because I wasn't joking.

[M2d]

where are the big poker playing areas in the US? LA, Bay Area, Chicago, AC/NY, Minnesota... Who's in the hunt or alread in the playoffs this year? Yankees, Twins, Dodgers, Giants, Cubs. Plus two of our most prolific posters (Clarky and the Masked One (maybe that's a title for a midseason replacement?)) are somehow supporters of two other teams that are in it.

Plus, well, baseball is cool.

Well, I think it's generous to consider the Astros "in it". /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[M2d]

any team that's not mathematically eliminated who finishes up with three at home against the rockies is definately "in it"

[Clarkmeister]

I don't consider the Red Sox, Cubs or Braves to be "in it" either, for similar reasons.

[ThaSaltCracka]

Clark, I know you seem to like intersting Bonds stats. He will most likely end the season with an OPS over 1.400, which would be the first time ever in the history of the game, shattering his own record.

[Clarkmeister]

I like that he has more walks than anyone but Ichiro has hits.

I knew the OPS thing, it's still amazing. Heck, just the .610 OBP is dumbfounding.

Oh, come on now........

[ThaSaltCracka]

yeah I never really looked at his numbers for the season until today. His BA, OBP, and SLG are all at absurd levels.

[banditbdl]

It doesn't hurt that Friday is Oct. 1st and the playoffs get under way in less than a week. It's that time of year.

[ThaSaltCracka]

my favorite time of the year!

[Piz0wn0reD!!!!!!]

Anyone like hockey?

[Kurn, son of Mogh]

Sure. Good thing I live in a major college hockey area. No NHL for a while.

I don't see how you can say a team that went to game 7 of the ALCS last year and is going to win between 95-99 games this year isn't in it. While they aren't the favorite to win it, to imply they have no shot is just silly.

[ThaSaltCracka]

You are overly serious. Clark is a big Cards fan and is just giving you [censored]. Fans like you are why I love making fun of the Red Sox.

[Clarkmeister]

" to imply they have no shot is just silly."

No it's not. They are the Red Sox. Ergo, they cannot ever beat the Yankees when it matters, nor win the World Series. If they make the playoffs, it's literally like they aren't even there as they have zero chance. Same with the Cubs.

It's true, Sox fans all have serious issues. /images/graemlins/blush.gif

There is a first time for everything.

Although things are looking kinda bleak for the Cubs just now.
