ESPN's Weekly Rankings

by tmat on Sep 1, 2007 8:56 PM PDT

I talk nothing but shit about that doggone network's biases and look what they have done. The Halo's are rightfully #1,and please look at what they posted:

The Angels have the most home wins (44) in the majors and the fewest weaknesses of any pennant contender.

Whoa! I tend to recall a few from the network bashing them, but, man this is the truth. Barring the Jays, we can hang with the entire MLB. My peers, what do you think aboot (How the late Peter Jennings used to say "about")the latest rankings?

Don't buy what ESPN is selling

They do this in order to announce the big comeback of the Yanksox right newar the end. It is just a gratuitous plot twist on ther part. Fuck being their foil, we're here to crash the party and take the rings.

Unfortunately

this is sooooo true. The residents of Bristol, CN are big supporters of the YankSox.

GA GA he's the man, if he can't do it, no one can

the funniest part

was that on the front page headline, it read:

MLB Rankings: Sox #2, Yanks #5!

heaven forbid the best team in baseball be the headline.

Yeah, that really got to me...just retarded

not to mention, both si.com and foxsports.com ranked the Angels as #2 for this week. Apparently one rookie throwing a flukeish no-hitter is enough to outweigh being swept by the second place team in your division in a rather important series, while the other possible #1 team went the other way and SWEPT the second place team in their division in a crucial division.

Clearly individual accomplishments for one guy far outweigh being swept, while another team sweeps.
