Baseball - October 2007

Who is it? I say Clint Hurdle. The Rockies were left for dead before the season started just like usual and now they are only a game away from the playoffs. Even with half of its starting rotation going down and injuries throughout the lineup in the second half of the season they are still right in it.

I'm noticing that instead of cheering for the teams people like, they would rather bash the teams, and especially the fans of the teams, that they DON'T like. Why is that? What's the point of jeering Cardinal, Met, Tiger, and Brewer fans (and others, of course) instead of bragging about the teams that won?

The point is that sports, baseball included, is full of people who are not well thought of. Barry Bonds, Gary Sheffield (an unfairly bashed guy), Milton Bradley, John McEnroe, Michael Vick, and so on. THEN, the fans act just like those guys. "In your face, Tigers. You suck." Why? Are we teaching our kids to be bad sports too? A little funning, sure: "Hey, Met fans, Phillies win!" Okay. But the abuse, the name calling, the insulting, and on and on and on -- isn't that being just like Barry Bonds and company? Why is it such a good thing?

Start rooting for the Yankees to loose. When your team goes down thats the only thing you have left to hope for.

Yanks don't need experience, they need arms that work. Experience isn't everything - ask Beckett or Verlander

Colorado & San Diego are forced to play 1 game to see who gets the NL Wild Card. I was just curious to see if any team ever won the World Series after being in this situation. Seems hard. I mean you'd have to pitch your ace in this game, so you wouldn't be able to use him again until like Game 3 or 4 in the playoffs. Thanks.

Giants, Pirates, Reds, Marlins, Royals, White Sox, Devil Rays and Orioles were the only teams in the Majors with less wins than the Astros.
What happened this year? What do Houston fans think?

Cheers!

I say Beckett is the only 20 game winner in the AL, better K/IP, lower Opp. BA. Walks and ERA favor Sabathia by a little, and Beckett has given up less homers.

There were many milestones, stand out games, big plays and momentum shifters this year. What single moment was you favorite or stood out the most to you? I don't want to hear any bashing here, you will be reported for being lame.

The idea is to get people to talk about baseball from a fan of the sport not one specific team.

Brett Myers of the Phillies was the opening day starter. Yesterday, as the Phils closer, he threw the final pitch of teh season as well. Has this ever happened before? By who? When?

Congratulations to the Philadelphi Phillies & their fans for their never give up attitude & for winning their first division title since 1993. Job well done. Would like to also congratulate the Colorado Rockies & their fans for their never say die attitude as well. I wish them luck tonight & hope they beat the Padres. Even if they lose Rockie fans should hold their heads up high & be proud b/c no one expected them to get this far & it gives them hope for next year.

Go Colorado! With the improbable win streak they had at the end of the season, it would make a great story if they did.

have used anabolic steriods? He admitted to have used "the Cream and the Clear" from BALCO, which are without question designer steroids? Today, most sports broadcasters continue to say it has not been proven. How much more proof does one need?
