BTW, i was in NYC over 9/11 weekend
Watched the LAA-NYY game in the East Village at a dirty bar called Doc Hollidays
I got back from a road trip on the 11th.
How was your visit? How was the bar?

it was awesome
Every bar had the week 1 Jets game on, so I had to convince a couple of street hockey dudes to let me turn the TV to the Angels game. We bought drinks for each other. I like NYC.
It can be a great, great town.
Were the street hockey dudes (???) Yankee fans?

I would like to thank the ESPN announcers
Who began fellating Papelbon with 2 outs and 1 run lead and no runners. He promptly choked it away 3 batters later.
they pitched his arm off last few days they get what grave they dug for themselves
"It's our money," owner Arte Moreno said.
I've heard mongerings about moving Astros over with pending sale of the team
But no way it happens next year
Have to pull back next year's schedules
and make new ones with 15 teams per league
When they expand the play off format to 10 teams
they will realign the Leagues to 15 teams each. The Astros to the AL West, and an extra 2 Wild Card teams. Because of today it will happen in 2012, and not later.
hells yeah!!!
FUCK YOU PAPELBON AND RED SOX NATION!!!!!!!!!!

I meant to say I didn’t understand why Tampa’s stadium wasn’t packed tonight. It looked empty to me. There were enough diehard O’s fans at the end of their game. I saw them standing up and cheering at the end.

Attendees were probably tons of Yankees fans to begin with,
who left early because, well, how could the Yankees possibly drop a 7-0 lead? :|

Dude, really congrats on two good years and you certainly do not represent the classy fans I know from Texas, and I will be cheering your team on. I hope they win it all.

The four letter network are playing the highlights of both games
and they’re flipping back and forth between the games. It’s actually pretty cool now that it’s not the Red Sox game. These announcers sound more neutral than the ones we get from these guys, and they’re really enthusiastic about the winners of both games.
THIS… IS… ANAHEIM!!
if madden can coach a 40m$ team, what does that say about sosh?
conger > mathis
Maybe they can write a book and produce a movie on it

he said he wants the Halos to sign Papelbon. I almost slapped him, and told him so. I just turned and walked away. this was 2 days ago and I’m still on the verge of hitting him the next time I see him.

“I want to be a great Dad, not just good.
So I will lie to my son from now on, tell him I’m a Yankee fan. I don’t want him to experience all the heartaches that go with being a Red Sox supporter."
Should I post this on OTM, just to get banned on sight?
Would it be worth it?

Black line is overall chance of making the playoffs
Blue line is chance of a division title, red line is chance of wild card berth.
You can probably figure out which team is which.

He did pretty well for himself this year
held together a team that had yet another injury-fall-apart year. They were making a run at the wild card for a fair bit of time without some of their best players…something not expected of them WITH their best players. Mets fans can’t feel too bad about the year.

I don't have a problem with it.
The Mets have been long out of contention. Reyes had busted his ass for as many games as he could play in. He can’t basque in the teams success so why not feel good about something. If he wants the batting title that bad and has worked hard for him. So be it. He worked hard the entire year. Who are we to judge.

I'm a biased Mets fan
(though most Mets fans are against it).
And I say it’s a non-story. He took hundreds of at-bats to put himself in that position. You can’t bemoan him making sure he got what he worked all season for by leaving a meaningless game.
Reading an article on ESPN talking about how this is proof that Jeter is better than Reyes made me sick. Saying “Jeter would never do this” is the easiest thing in the world to say for someone who knows he’ll never have to back up the words.

We were going back and forth in the living room with my dad
between ATL/PHI, TB/NYY, and BAL/BOS.
I switched to the Baltimore game just ahead of the Reimold double, and watched the walk off, then quickly switched back. We were high fiving and screaming like life long fans.

For sure
our lead was bigger, but a big chunk of it was lost in August. We were only ever as much as 6.5 up in September.

An interesting "footnote" of sorts to our '95 collapse
is that we were actually 3 games back with 5 games to go in the season…that’s how hard we collapsed. But we managed to force a one game playoff, anyway.

As for a September collapse, yes
According to Cool Standings, the Red Sox had a 99.6% POFF on September 3, the highest POFF blown in September. The two teams above that in collapses, the 1995 Angels and 1951 Dodgers had higher POFFs, but in August.

…“i’m not one to worry about myself”
What a dumbshit
The Angels had a hand in all this
- The pitcher who got the save in the Atlanta loss was none other than our own David Herndon
- Alex Torres pitched very well for the Rays over the past month
- Sean Rodriguez made important contributions through the Rays season
Who says TR can’t help teams win?
From Jeff Mathis' TOPPS card: "Jeff is a defensive catcher, but he can rake it when it counts." Jeff has a lifetime .199 MLB batting average
