They both are far and away the biggest spenders in the game. I much prefer a small market team winning than some behemoth like the Yankees...oh..and who else? Oh yeah...the Red Sox. Quote
No. 13 Baby Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it... you want small market teams to win in sports, drank PBR before it was co-opted by hipsters, and were the first on your block to wear Carhartts. Quote
olyclimber Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 are you retarded? no, i want to see some parity. i like seeing a small market team because I'm a fan of the game. if a small market team can pull it off its because they have a bunch of no name players that have come together and are playing well...it isn't the cast of all stars that have been bought up by the highest bidder ( Boston and the Yankees). It doesn't sound like you are even a fan of baseball, you're just another Red Sox fanboi. By the way, keep it up with your attempts to define who I am, its pretty humorous. Quote
Dechristo Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 You forgot your self-obligatory "lmao" emoticon at the end of your post to congratulate yourself on your peerless prowess in wit. Quote
No. 13 Baby Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 Hey, you earned the Peerless Wit Award for suggesting a 3-game Sox/Rockies series in June held some great significance. Quote
Dechristo Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 The only significance suggested was in response to the statement, "wasn't even close, all season long", to which there was significance. Your understanding will increase if you're able to stay on subject. Quote
crazy_t Posted October 29, 2007 Author Posted October 29, 2007 Great team and great team play, they deserve it. Everyone stepped up their game after that mid cleveland series slump, everyone pitched in. I was sorry to see the Rockies not find their game and make it more interesting, felt bad for their fans too. But they didn't hit for crap. Deer in the headlights, or something. Suck it, Yankees!

AlpineK Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 I like baseball, but I'm mostly happy that the season is over before November. Quote
chucK Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 The Sox won woo hoo. Unfortunately for them no one further than 30 miles from Faneuil Hall will even remember by Halloween. The big news is of course A-ROD!!!!!!1 Such cajones to make his big announcement during the climbaxe of the Series. Perhaps his only achievement left is trying to be more hated than Barry Bonds. Maybe he can get a one-year deal in SF? Quote
