[RevCheesehead]

4. Brewers.

It's about time, innit? :hi:

[Oeditpus Rex]

6. The Milwaukeebrewers?

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

7. Well, we pronounce it "Mwakee"

But yeah, heh-heh, why not? They gotta win sometime! :)

[Oeditpus Rex]

8. Why

is nobody getting the snarky point of this thread? :banghead:

[RevCheesehead]

9. Because your snark is incognito?

:shrug:

Because people think your Series?!? :rofl:

[Oeditpus Rex]

10. Alas, I guess you're right

with the second one.

Might as well give up being a grammar nazi when everybody works for the underground. x(

[kay1864]

11. Well I for one

was wondering why an editor would misuse Whom. Is this kind of a copycat? :shrug:

[Oeditpus Rex]

12. A kind of, yes

And, touché. I erred.

[kay1864]

13. Well don't leave me in suspense dang it...

Which thread?

(sorry for being so clueless...signed S.R.Gumby)

[Oeditpus Rex]

14. No one in particular

Mostly, a series of threads about the "Superbowl."

After the fact, there was one about "Wordperfect."

I'm convinced many keyboards are being shipped with faulty space bars.

[kay1864]

15. Ah. Thanks!

Reminds me of those silly store ads that tout "low prices everyday!"

Grrr...




But silly me, I didn't even notice "Worldseries" in your OP. D'oh!

[TheMightyFavog]

22. And The Sporstcasters will say...

"The City of Milwaukee has waited half a century for this moment. The Brewers are World Champions! Somewhere Warren Spahn is smiling."

[AllegroRondo]

31. I'm with you on that!

we didnt spend all that money on Suppan for nothing!

[ScreamingMeemie]

41. Remember the excitement of '82???

Gosh. It's been a while. :hi:

[edbermac]

5. After paying the Japanese guy a 100 mil, it better be the Red Sox

:woohoo:

[CatholicEdHead]

16. MinnesotaTwins

[Broken_Hero]

17. The Seattle Mariners, duh!

After they get two more bonafide starters, they will be a contender...I'm still sad, that the M's didn't get Zito....:(

[cboy4]

19. But my Giants did!

:bounce:

Even though I still think they're going to suck. :(

[Broken_Hero]

20. Lucky....:) Zito is a fine pitcher...nt

[cboy4]

23. Yea he is. But you guys still have the prize player in Ichiro! :)

I think he's a free agent next year. :scared:

It would be a shame to see Seattle lose him. Boy is he going to be e-x-p-e-n-s-i-v-e!

[Oeditpus Rex]

21. Will some mod show this thread some compassion

and disconnect its life-support system?

I've never known grammar snark to fail so utterly. x(

[Bullwinkle925]

24. I'm counting on my SF GIANTS to come through.

DAMMIT. Been waiting a long time. Nearly had it a few seasons ago and Dusty Baker pulled my boy (Russ Ortiz) outta the game and we ended up losing it. - - - Not that I'm holding a grudge or anything.

[azmouse]

33. The SAME Russ Ortiz the Dbacks fans nicknamed 'Donut Boy'?

The SAME Russ Ortiz that was the WORST trade the Dbacks ever made? In fact, the worst trade ANY team has ever made?

Man, the Dbacks get taken at every turn. Now the management gives us the Big Unit II. arrrggghh!!!

The only thing I can look forward to this season is watching Cy Young award winner Brandon Webb! :)
Well that and seeing my Dbacks kicking some Giants ass! :P
In the spirit of sportsmanship good luck to your team! :hi:

[Bullwinkle925]

35. Yes - that's my 'Russy' -

he's had a roller-coaster of a career - but the Giants were winning what would have been the final game of the series and Russ was pitching phenomenally - I don't know WHY Baker pulled him out and put in the closer - who ultimately lost the game making us go into the final game and we lost the Series.
Dammit!
Oh well.

When Russ is 'on' he's tremendous. He's also a great guy on/off the field. My daughter worked for the Giants and said he was one of the nicest guys on the team and would do anything for the community and kids. They still keep in touch. I would hope that he returns to the Giants - just for old times' sake for me.
Good luck in the upcoming season. We have Barry Zito - but with the Giants' past history - who knows what will happen. Especially with that clown Bonds.

[azmouse]

37. Dbacks fans had no complaint about Ortiz as a person,

it was his pitching that we couldn't stand. But if you'd like him back in a Giants uni well.... the Dbacks would be more than happy to take what would amount to batting practice off him! :)

Hey look what happened with Baker! I know some Cubs fans that are sooo happy he's gone! He made many bone-headed moves with the Cubs too! Has any team picked him up yet?

What's up with Bonds return? I thought for sure the Giants would dump his steroid-filled self. Can he still start in LF with his bad knee or is he just a backup (and a very expensive one at that)?

[Bullwinkle925]

38. It will be interesting to see what Bonds will be able to 'produce' this year in terms

of both defensive and offensive playing. They signed his ass to put people in the seats this year hoping he'll break the all-time hr record. If I had my way - it would be "You can tell Him Goodbye!".
My daughter said that even the players don't care much for him while she was there. He's arrogant and is not much of a team player - both on and off the field. Doesn't mix with the rest of the team at all.
But, Peter McGowan likes him and keeps him around for the profits.

[Drum]

25. ...

[Phillycat]

28. Ew! The Boston Red Sox, of course.

We have pitching now. :D

[Drum]

46. Hmmm....

I don't even know what the Yanks have "now".... Such partisanship (restricted to the Yankees) is almost a reflex for me at this point. However the NY/Bos teeter-totter goes, it's always great baseball. Just a few short months away!

:hi: janesez!

[Phillycat]

56. I KNOW! Woo hoo!!!!

:hi: Drum! :loveya:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

47. Yeah, sure...whatever...

:D

[Phillycat]

57. The Yankees are the Republicans of the MLB.

:D

[Drum]

59. LOL!

Helluva shirt, and helluva statement! What...I should be surprised?
:D

[Pierre.Suave]

26. I dont get it

the world series is over.

[reyd reid reed]

30. No. Nononononoooooooo....

It's 2007 and pitchers and catchers report in 36 days. It's not over, it hasn't happened yet.

[wildhorses]

27. atlantabraves

:P

[reyd reid reed]

29. I don't know who's gonna win it this year...

Cards are fairly intact, but we'll see. I know who's not gonna win it, though.

:cry:

[gemdem]

48. Hey, the Cubs will have plenty of company in the Central basement...

With my Reds and the Pirates.

[reyd reid reed]

54. Yeah, but there can only be one

true cellar-dweller.

*sigh*

:cry:


Hey...what the fuck am I crying over? I mean...still 36 days before pitchers and catchers report. At this point, anything's possible. Even a World Series at Wrigley.

Baseball's comin'...and it's comin' sooner rather than later.

:bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce:

[Strawman]

32. The Tigers, of course

Best pitching staff in baseball and its a deep young staff that's just going to get better.

[noonwitch]

40. Damn straight the Tigers are going to win!

Hopefully, the Red Wings will win the Stanley Cup, too! The fact that they aren't having the best regular season gives me hope for the post-season.

[Bake]

34. You mean "Who" will win?

Is that your point? "WHO" (not "whom") do you think will win the WS?

Bake
Grammar Nazi

[Yavin4]

36. 27

'nuff said.

[mvd]

39. Hard to tell yet, but I do think the Phillies will finally make the playoffs

Gillick believes in small steps, but the playoffs WOULD be a small step for them.

[MonkeyFunk]

42. Whom?

[Hosnon]

60. Hehe...I came in just for that.

Glad you get the GrammarNazi card for today and not me:)

[PVnRT]

43. The Stlouisbrowns

n/t

[Left Is Write]

44. The Twins.

[Goblinmonger]

45. whogivesashit

I appreciate grammar snark. Of course, I'm a high school English teacher, so I'm a nerd that way.

[TommyO]

49. grammarnazi only because I don't give a flying fig

about who wins, I just like the games and all of the players in their tight uniforms!

[IDemo]

50. Boise State

:evilgrin:

[jobycom]

51. The Texas Rangers

Some year, anyway. They pretty much have to. Don't they? Please?

[KitchenWitch]

52. The first team to win four games in the World Series

:P

[swag]

53. The Time Lords.

[ellisonz]

55. The Los Angeles Dodgers

Pitching, Speed, and Defense.
