But still... its been 4 years, so I thought it was great... Oh yeah, and how about the postseason? Red Sox - A's, Yankees-Twins, and in the NL the Braves, Giants, Marlins, and probably Cubs... hmm, I don't know. I bet the Yankees will beat Minnesota, though. __________________ My Games Collection My Webpage! Currently Playing: 1. Guild Wars (PC) 2. Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance (GC) 3. BlaZeon (SNES) 4.

They are division champs for the first time since 1989, and in the playoffs for the first time since their wild card birth in '98.

However, their payroll is already sky-high and I bet they'll cut it, not spend a lot on pitchers... I predict the saga of the pitching of Arlington (I can see why they weren't called the Arlington Rangers, since everyone would think they are in Virginia... ) to continue for some time. __________________ My Games Collection My Webpage!

I think Directv has NESN. I think I saw it when I was viewing their channel listing a few days ago. So that's probably how these other people are calling in.

I'm happy for the Cubbies, but the only team I even partially kinda care about that had a chance to make the playoffs was Seattle.

But hey, the Chargers will get their sorry butts kicked by the incredibly pathetic Raider tomorrow, completing their early season AFC West "un-sweep"*, and next year the Padres might** be good. And if not, we still have Petco Park! Free dogfood to the first 20,000 fans through the gate!!!

With the Expos, you're always getting your hopes down because they say they're gonna be gone next year. But they still always come back. But I think after next season it's gonna be it.

*A Black Falcon* Defender of the Realm Join Date: 12-19-99 Location: Maine, USA Age: 23 Posts: 21,406	I'd root for the Cubs to get to the series, but they're playing the Giants in round one and the Giants are my second favorite team... so I have to root for the Giants. As for the Mariners, they're my favorite AL West team (I hate the A's and don't care about the other two), but if they are in the way of the Red Sox... Oh yeah, and it probably is sattelite networks that would have NESN... that would make sense. They might have all like 25 Fox Sports Net varieties (since most teams are on either Fox or Fox Sports Net...) too... And YES but we do not talk about that channel. And LL... it would be a sweep! Er, a 'swept'... And finally, it is good to see the Expos have one more season in Montreal... I like that team and its really, really terrible what Major League Baseball has done to them. Awful... though I think they'd best move them and be done with it. No one in Montreal wants the team, its clear... I know most teams use new stadiums as bargaining chips that don't help, but the Expos truly need one. They have such an amazingly bad stadium that they really have no choice... Of course, if MLB breaks up this Expos team, I'll feel differently, since at that point it won't matter (about moving them to save their remote chances at keeping their .500 club mostly intact) __________________ My Games Collection My Webpage!

The Cubs are playing the Braves in the first round, not the Giants.

There's actually a group that has gotten together and is thinking of purchasing the Expos and bringing them to Las Vegas. I know you'd probably want them to stay in Montreal, but that's probably not going to happen. Anyway, the group is headed up by Steve Stone, who is one of the announcers during Cubs broadcasts. He has a brilliant baseball mind so your Spos would be in good shape to have him running things. I'd just be mad that Cubs fans would lose his analysis during games.

But they only had about a million or two in contributions to keep them in Montreal. 398 million short. And like I said, I'd rather the Expos go to Portland like I heard before so I could go see them play. But hey, I really don't mind what town, as long as they are respected. And if they keep the name 'Expos'.

Laser Link raw rock kills Join Date: 11-23-99 Location: Colorado Springs Age: 24 Posts: 9,071	Yeah, that's a good point about the Pads. At least they will stay in San Diego for a while with their new stadium. No matter how bad the name is. But the Chargers, on the other hand, keep threatening to move to LA. And the NFL really wants a team in LA. I know you are thinking "LA is just 100 miles north of SD, it's not that big of a deal", but this would be like the Red Sox moving to New Jersey. It's just wrong. And yeah, the Chargers started in LA and actually were good there, but they only stayed there a year and won the AFL championship while in SD. Although if a move to LA included changing the uniform to those powder blue jerseys, I might have to reconsider. Just kidding. __________________ In 2004, the name "Trinity" was the 48th most common name for baby girls. God help us all.

DMiller Infrequent Poster Join Date: 10-01-99 Location: Illinois, USA Age: 24 Posts: 5,730	Brewer attendance is good when they're playing the Cubs. Milwaukee's GM actually called the Cubs GM after the Cubs clinched the division thanks to Milwaukee beating Houston and said the Brewers were doing the Cubs a favor because of the sellouts the Cubs generated at Miller Park. It's so cool how many Cubs fans travel to road games. They estimated that 10,000 Cubs fans were at the Atlanta game yesterday. Chicago to Atlanta flights for Tuesday were empty until the Cubs clinched the division. Then you couldn't buy a seat anywhere. Anyway, I still can't believe the Twins won. I was hoping the Red Sox would beat the Yankees in the ALCS, but if the Yankees lose in the Division Series that's even better. __________________ My Games (IGN) My Website (In A Constant State of Construction)

Oh yeah, and some teams draw fans wherever they go... the Yankees do, the Red Sox do, the Cubs clearly do, and some others... Oh, and how about the scores yesterday? 2-0, 4-2, 3-1... low scoring! And while I'd love to have the Yankees in the ALCS (and beat them this time, unlike 1999... ), its better to see them go out early. Better, more humiliating, more chances of Steinbrenner of going nuts and trashing the team and coaching staff... __________________ My Games Collection My Webpage! Currently Playing: 1.

He said the Yankees are a much better draw than any other team in the majors. Well, the first Cubs/Braves game ended up being Fox's highest rated game 1 division series broadcast ever.

I bet they get swept. Stupid bullpen... when you blow game 1 like that you don't deserve to win... __________________ My Games Collection My Webpage! Currently Playing: 1. Guild Wars (PC) 2.

DMiller Infrequent Poster Join Date: 10-01-99 Location: Illinois, USA Age: 24 Posts: 5,730	Yeah, I stayed up to watch the first Sox/As game too. It was a great game, but too bad the Sox lost. They are in serious trouble now being down 0-2. The Yankees and Twins are in a close game right now. Hopefully the Twins pull it out. I'm not too worried about the Cubs losing game 2. They only needed to win one game in Atlanta really. A second game would've just been a bonus. The Cubs still have Prior and Wood pitching, and Clement has been hot at home this year so he'll be tough to beat. I truly expect Prior to win everytime he goes out on the mound. Cubs fans have so much confidence in him right now and he usually delivers. Speaking of Prior, did anyone hear the comment made by Cardinals' pitcher Steve Kline? He was reponding to a Prior comment made before the last Cards/Astros series saying he didn't care that the Cubs needed the Astros to lose, he wanted the Astros to "beat their brains in." Kline responded on Tuesday saying that he hopes Prior "takes a liner off his face so we never have to hear from him again." I know the Cubs/Cards rivalry is heated, but that's taking it way too far if you ask me. __________________ My Games (IGN) My Website (In A Constant State of Construction)

Hmm... the A's will win but the other three are all tied 1-1. I don't know who will win any of them, really... Oh, and DMiller... that's surprising. Its generally mostly the fans, not the players, who make the rivalries... the players seem to care a lot less usually... or at least they act that way. __________________ My Games Collection My Webpage!
