Open Thread: Playoffs - Day Three (cont)
Comments at AN have worked out perfectly. 400 comments on the Rays' game, just in time to open a new thread for the Angels' game, after the Rays put another satisfying win on the board, and are now one game away from advancing to the ALCS.
Red Sox at Angels - 6:37PM
D. Matsuzaka v. E. Santana
Red Sox lead series 1-0
Over the Monster
Halos Heaven
If you aren't a fan of the Angels (and hello, this is AN!), the only way Game One could have been more satisfying would have been to see K-rod giving up a slam to lose the game. But errors in the field and on the bases are almost just as fun, as the Angels are poised to lose their eleventh straight post-season game against the Red Sox, and ninth overall. With a straight series loss, I think we may be able to shed the "Choke-land" moniker over at Halos Heaven; at least we won a lot of playoff games before losing the clinchers. But there is a long way to go; I would say that the despite how good Dice-K has been this year, the pitching matchup favors Santana and the Angels tonight. They are a good team; and they haven't owned the Red Sox this year only to be dispatched so easily in the playoffs...have they?

I see Brian Anderson wears #32...
think he does that in memory of Ryan?
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.
Was that Ryan's old number?
Cust has it here… I guess Rookie Ry didn’t want to ask Mr. Three True Outcomes for his number.
You deserve cake!

I sent it by FedEx...
so it might be stuck with Tom Hanks on a desert island. He’ll deliver it in 5 years or so.
You should have sent it to Ryan's house.
I have plenty of free time to stalk him now.
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.
Eck does pre and postgame for the red sox
makes me sick. esp when they play the A’s and he starts talking trash about the A’s
Way to lose just in time for the next game, ChiSox.

The timing for all these games has worked out surprisingly well.
I would’ve expected some to go over their time slot, but it’s actually been pretty perfect.
There he is!
It looks like he killed a leprechaun and took his jacket.
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.
He should've left the jacket
and taken the pot of gold. Then he could’ve bought some normal clothes.

Did Youkilis grow a huge beard in the last 2 days?
He looks significantly worse than he did the other day.
If he would have shaved he could have scored there.
That beard is holding him back. Less aerodynamic.
I don't understand.
He shaves his head…. but leaves the beard?
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.
Yeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh
Screw the slegna
May the Angels have only bad luck in the playoffs and anything bad goes as long as they lose, short of DEATH that is.

Remember how the White Sox had opportunities like this?
And failed horribly. The Red Sox are doing what the White Sox couldn’t.
I hate to say this but
I’m actually rooting for the Red Sox to take down these Angel bitches………….And we all know how much we collectively hate the Red Sox!
Go Kotsay!!!!!
I'll root for Boston just this once
but as soon as they get to the ALCS, they are getting no such support.
The Angels are finally regressing to the mean!!!!!

I love Sudoku.

But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.
There's an iPod version?
I guess I’m old-fashioned. Here I sit using paper and a pencil.
And yes, Ryan needs new hobbies. We can mail him audio books and Sudoku, c/o the A’s.
Gotta hit the sack early for work tomorrow, huh?

I’d always prefer people don’t use them at all, but I mean, if you’re actually going to use them to make noise and cheer for your team, you might as well actually make some noise with them.

Also, does Vlad to anything except hit singles?
Children, until we have taught them better, will be perfectly happy with a seasonal round of games in which conkers succeeds hopscotch.
You're awesome.

I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal
lol the rally monkey. I will never forget the game I went to earlier this year where a GROWN MAN was in the aisle jumping up and down like a monkey. It was a very serious case of second hand embarrassment.
Better than a mown gran...oh, never mind..
