I actually started paying attention to college base ball a little the last two years... mainly cause I was deployed and it was about the only thing on... but also because Oregon State kicked fuck'n ass!

Honestly, I'm a fan of baseball in general. I even enjoyed watching Boston in 04. Its just I like seeing different teams in championships to make it interesting. Sometimes i get sooo tired of seeing the Yanks/Patriots/Red Wings/Spurs etc etc in the playoffs year after year.

I mean when Atlanta Hawks had their run last year, the Giants beat the Pats, Boise State beat Oklahoma, and the Rays run this year... I mean that shit is improbable! Thats what the essence of sports should be... Not dynasties.

Why Not?

The Phils Certainly Didnt Get here by Mistake...We Tore Through CC Sabathia and the Brewers...and Ripped Manny and the Dodgers a New one After that.

If Howard gets Hot and Victorino Stays Hot This Team is a Force...Hamels is just Plain Animalistic, Myers FINALLY got his Mojo Back and Joe Blanton is fitting in nicely with the Rotation.

My One concern is Moyer...who had a Magnificent Season but during the Postseason has Fucked us for Both of our Losses Vs the Brewers and the Dodgers.

And Brad Lidge well hes just downright Spectacular.

The Rays are a Young Team with NO Playoff Experience...I think the Phils have a Legit Shot.

marko138

Lets be honest here. The NL sucks. They have for several years. The Rays being young and no experience? Lets forget about that. They beat a Red Sox team who's won 2 of the last 4 WS. Thats out the door. Their pitching is tough. Their offense is unbelievable.

The Phillies are a good team. They tore through the Dodgers...but at the end of the day they are still a NL team...and the NL has proven time and time again they can't hang with the AL. All Star games, World Series, doesn't matter.


I'm rooting for the Phils, I hope they beat the shit out of Tampa.

St Louis Won 2 years ago...And they were a Powerhouse that year...You cant Place the Phillies as Automatic Underdogs because there in the NL, Thats Retarded.

And The Rays have ABSOLUTLY NO playoff expereince...While the Offense may be strong they let Boston come back from a 3 1 Deficit...Did the Phillies do that?? No

Its gonna be a good series...Cant wait till tommorrow.
Go look it up and tell me who the underdog is. I'll wait...

Gotta agree on 2 things...

-The Phils are underdogs
-The Rays fans are bandwaggoners, except the 1,000 that showed up every night when they sucked... and long time ticket holder Dickey V!!!!

Should be a good series... im just worried about the Phils big layoff. If you all remember correctly what happened last year when the Rockies had a long layoff and my Tribe took Bo Town to game 7. The sox were hot and colorado cooled down... game, set, match...

It all comes down to how rested Tampa's arms can get, and how rusty Phillies bats are...

One Problem with Underdogs...They Usually Win.

One More problem...We have to many Bats to be Rusty, J Roll Victorino Howard and Burrell Want this just as much as the Fans...They wont be rusty...Phils win Game one Watch...

Amen... case in point, 2002 National Championship. Ohio State vs Miami U. Ohio State huge underdogs. Less talented, I don't think so. Outcome... Go Bucks!!

I used to hate baseball, but got started watching it a little 2 years ago. Last year, I started watching a ton with one of my good friends whose parents lived in Boston for most of their lives, obviously watching the Sox.

I played in HS... I was good... All state Honorable mention Freshman year... All state Pitcher and Third base Sophomore year... but just didn't enjoy it. it's a boring sport... not enough action for me.

I paid attention to the pro's when I played... but when I quit... I quit watching it too... now I'll go to a game live... just for the atmosphere... but the game itself is still boring to me but 100x better in person

The thing that makes baseball exciting is the history between any two teams. Whether it's old history or history about to be made, I love baseball. I don't look at it like "these two teams are playing like it's any other day". I look at it like "these two rivals are battling it out once again". The pace may be slow, but true fans still love it. It's great seeing the passion that some of these players have. Dustin Pedroia, for example. The dude is 5'9" and won rookie of the year last year. His second year in and he's going for MVP of the American League. That dude is one of the smallest players on the field, but he plays like he's one of the biggest. His love of the game is written on his forehead every time he steps out. He's fun as hell to watch.

Heart. The best players have it.

What intrigues me about baseball is the intricasies that come with it. Its not about all the flash and show that comes with football and basketball. Being a former player... of just about every position, I notice everything. And its the small stuff that i like to focus on. The catcher throwing down the signs, the minor changes in a batters wrist angles reacting to different pitches, a perfectly turned double play/at what angle the mids cut to second/where the foot drags/how the ball comes out on the turn, a pop-slide, a barehand from third, bunt for a single, the manager spitting seeds, a perfectly yanked curveball...... I could go on and on for hours, but you get the point. Sometimes you have to look past the game to truely see what somethings all about.

Baseball is only good to cover the gap between the Stanley Cup finals and the first week of NCAA football. So basically from the end of June until late August.....The rest of the season......Who gives a fuck.. I certainly don't.

Yeah I stated this thread, but that was because the Tigers were predicted to win the world series.... Instead they had their heads up their asses all season long. Now I hate them almost as much as I hate the Detroit Lions...

They looked strong. I went to bed in the 7th. Phills were up by 1 at that point.


I'm glad they won. They looked strong. But they left WAY too many people on base. Hamels is their best guy. Rays in 5.

As a life long Phillies fan, these championships are very few and far between.

It was cool seeing the news reports with Jamie Moyer who is literally the "home town hero". He is also a Souderton Area High School grad ( he was class of '80, I was '78 )which is about 40 miles from Phila.
