Title: Ray of magic!
Post by: STAMP on April 06, 2012, 06:50:15 PM
I love it!  Just now Mariano Rivera came in to save a 6-5 lead in the bottom of the 9th.  Of course, these are the RAYS!  Jennings singled, then Zobrist tripled.  Blown save.  The magic is still there...leftover from the last game of the regular season last year.  ;)

Baseball Fever!  CATCH IT!!  :)

Rivera intentionally walks Longoria (D'uh!) and Luke Scott, strikes out Rodriguez, but then gives up a single to Carlos Pena for the loss...RAYS WIN!  The magic continues...



Oh, yeah, and the Yanks lose.  That's what you'd call a "WIN-WIN"!!  :D

sadly, all good things must come to an end and so the depature it was of Jonathon Papelbon to the phillies who aren't doing so hot this year with a new closer and a new manager. but the Red Sox have been doing very well and just beat the rays yesterday and the cardials are looking RED HOT so far this season and the Red Sox's offense looks real sharp this season and this pleases me :) but sadly about yesterday, my Los Angelos Angels lost to the yankees and pujols isn't doing too great but im giving him time :) this is just the start of the season, he has a long road ahead of him and it gives him plenty of time to get comfortable in a Angels uniform and get warmed up to smack some right out of the ballpark

You can have Kevin Gregg :D Seriously, we'll like...throw in some baseballs or something.  Just take him!

On a side note, I wanted to give a shout-out to the first-place Orioles.

*chants* O-R-I-O-L-E-S!

*enjoys it while it lasts even if it's a three-way tie*

big deal if the oreos are in first place. it's just the start of the season. don't get too excited, it's nowhere near October yet

How about you let a sad miserable franchise enjoy the limelight for ten seconds?

thing of it is, the orioles aren't even a miserable baseball franchise, their actually a pretty good team but "this" one strikes (no pun intended) me as miserable:

i've seen them on tv even as the Florida Marlins, and i have to say, they are the most pathetic team i've seen in major league baseball. they hardly ever fill in the bleachers in their feild, they have a very short fan-base, and im just gonna come right on out and say it, Baltimore is BETTER then Miami in baseball

The point, you missed it. Team hasn't made the playoffs since 1997 let them enjoy their 15 minutes of shared division lead, no need to be a jerk about it just because you don't care about the team.

i wasn't trying to be a jerk about it. and if you look at the differences in times, when i posted about the orioles, it was around 10 hours since he posted

You saw someone trying to celebrate their teams success and told them it didn't matter. That's being a jerk.

How are you any better when you say they are a sad and miserable franchise?

Because he's telling the truth? ;)

I'm young enough that my absolute first baseball memory is of the playoff game where the 'home run' was caught by a fan out of an Oriole's glove, turning the tide of the series.  They haven't won since.  It's been a sad baseball life :(

So much good in this post...

I respect a man who can admit his mistakes and apologize.
I agree that Raven is NOT a jerk, and lp should have focused his criticism on the comment, not the person.
I also agree that the comment itself was uncalled for, and it's nice for the Orioles fans to have something to be proud of.

I just hope he scares Sanchez, Sanchez is already kinda flighty.  Have you seen this clip yet?

that's right bills fans, this year, your team has to have their daily dose of losing thanks to your friendly neighborhood Tennessee Titans ;)

trust me korunks, the only thing that will be sinking in that game between bills and titans, will be the bills chances of winning that game over the titans. need i remind me of the "music city miracle". the titans will ALWAYS find a way to beat the bills cause in the end, they always do and all i have to say is: GO TITANS!!!!

There are plenty of teams we'll be facing next year that scare me. The Titans are not one of them. Music City Miracle was over a decade ago, let it go man.
