At least this World Series isn't a completely one-sided mismatch like most have been lately. This is the first series since the Angels/Giants that I've actually found each game exciting.

 

[Captain Planet!]

I wish they would play some day games. I don't see why every WS game has to be at 8:35 PM.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

This towel-waving is ridiculous. It's baseball trying to be like the NBA and NFL with the tacky stuff they do.

This is why I love living on the west coast You get a 8pm start time and we get a 5pm start time. Very Nice.

 

[Excel]

My god these umps have been bad

 

[Go Web Go!]

These umps have been terrible throughout the entire series.

 

[Panophobia]

This is the worst umpire crew in the history of baseball, I'm pretty sure.

Every game has to be in prime time... we even need to start East Coast games at ten o' clock PM after an hour and a half rain delay. As a matter of fact... let's move the games to 9:35 so that the west coast... who I am sure is completely wrapped up in a Philly Ray WS... can get their game at 6:35 pm. I mean that would be perfect wouldn't it?

 

[Dodger]

LoL..Fox held that freeze frame of evans glove on rollins butt for far too long.

 

[Panophobia]

Okay, Phillies have won the series. I give up. I'm going to bed. ****ing Rays.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

This is becoming as boring as 2006.

EDIT: Yep, this thing is over. Just another year with a boring World Series. At least the Super Bowl was great.

game 1: 3-2
game 2: 4-2
game 3: 5-4

Yawn

 

[Spidey-Bat]

They've been low scoring because the hitters aren't getting the big clutch hits. Lot of the Rays pitchers have labored, too.

 

[Nightmare]

Damn, tampa is done. There's no way they beat cole hammels in game 5. No way.

 

[FaT_tONle]

You never know... get a couple of breaks... maybe Hammels has an off night... if you are the Rays all you have to do is get one game here... then take it back home and take care of business. You would have liked to get two... but if they can win game 5 I think they have a slightly less than 50% chance of coming back. T'will be a tall order winning game five though. As of now Rays are done but one game and it's a series again...

 

[Kingfish]

The Rays still have a chance in this thing, but it's looking more and more like the ALCS drained them. It was such a rush, that it effectively became their World Series, and they came out of it with very little left. If the Phillies hadn't forgotten how to get big hits, they would be getting mangled. But, you never know. Beat Hamels, and the rest comes easy.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

I don't think they have the intestinal fortitude to mound a comeback down 3-1.

 

[Holiday]

Wow. The only thing I have to look foward to now in this series is David Price pitching and I might not even get to see that again.

 

[Bunker]

I just changed the channel.

 

[Captain Planet!]

Howard crushed it.

 

[cyborg ninja 14]

I don't think you have the intestinal fortitude to deal with the fact that the Phillies are one game away from winning the WS

I have enough intestinal fortitude to accept it....

This big enough for you?

 

[Bunker]

What the hell is that? A blue whale?

 

[Captain Planet!]

That's a lot of guts.

 

[FaT_tONle]

I was a fat man in my previous life....
