It's Baseball Season!

Yes. using Metric the Cubs win more games.

It’s because you double it and add 30, right?  I knew I understood the metric system. ;D

Mmmmm…this humble pie is really good.  :smiley:

Not quite ready to start the “Wait 'til next year” chant, but with the NFL in limbo, they better find their game soon!

If you live in Boston or NYC you might care about Red Sox vs Yankees, but the rest of us rate it right up there with watching paint dry.  Besides, they’re American League (see my comment above).

I hope all those greedy F—s in the NFL don’t ruin it for us fans.  Maybe we should form a fans’ union and strke the NFL.

It’s the Mets and the Phillies for the next three days and a friend offered me tickets for tomorrow’s night game 1st base side 15th row. I’m stoked!

GO PHILS!

Jealous. But I’m taking the wife to the Phillies game on June 9th while we’e in Baltimore for a wedding that weekend. Hopefully Doc is pitching.

And please, lets not ruin this perfectly good thread about The Beautiful Game with NFL talk… :wink:

That’s a whole other thread. My ONLY two weeks in the US are planned around football season so I can take the little guy to a Bears game (oh, and so we can see family…) but if there’s no Bears… Could you imagine? Fall would just be a period of everything dying or going to hibernate in preparation for winter. There would be nothing to do on Sundays except whatever the wife tells you to do. Surely this calls for an act of congress or something.

Real football takes place on Saturdays, anyways :slight_smile:

But the NFL doesn’t really play Saturday games until late in the season  :stuck_out_tongue:

Fixed

How about those Bruins, huh?  Just kidding  :stuck_out_tongue:

Tried to chime in here and discovered I’d accidently locked the thread.  Weird…  sorry bout that chief!

Enjoying living in time zone UTC -10!

Working from my home office today - listening to the Giants at the Pads on the radio.  Giants are off to a good start.  Jumped out to a 3 run lead in the 1st.  Lincecum has some good stuff working today…  6 up 6 down with 5 Ks through the bottom of the second…

Tubercle wants to apologize for poking fun at the Cubs. They were close; Oh!, so close. I watched the reply of that infamous inning on youtube and being the baseball fanatic I am, my heart went out to them. And I think Bartman is truly repentant and he only did what any fan would have done in that situation. I would hate to be living his life. Tubercle’s not going to mention this incident again.

At least not until next years thread…

6-0

I LOVE BELTRE

Hey Bluesman how’d you enjoy the game? It was a great game to watch at home, bettting you guys had a great time.  Big Joe was on there for awhile.

It was a blast except for Blanton giving up 4 runs in the 4th but the relief really held up. Thank God!

How about Howard, he’s on fire right now. It was a very exciting game to watch live. Non-stop action.

GO PHILS!

the relief really held up.

The key to the season, if you  ask me. And, yeah Howard is off to a great start.

Giants home opener today.  First game at home since becoming World Champions.

That ought to be a good place to be.

I know this will get filtered but you’ll get the point:

WHAT THE FUCK RED SOX?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?  >:( :frowning: >:(

Carl Crawford was just waiting to get paid. He’s lazy.

Pedroia’s power numbers never came back after the MVP season…hmmmmmmm

Ellsbury will be injured in May

Ortiz’s batspeed has slowed down so much he’s behind on change-ups

Scutaro/Lowrie…

Youk is a first baseman, not a 3B. No comment on his bat though, he’s legit

Gonzalez is legit, but pressure of big market may affect him

Salty-HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Lester-Legit Ace

Bucholz-Too erratic

Beckett-Washed up

Lackey-Never was good

Dice-K-HAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

Salty-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA

;D ;D ;D
