Well that sucked.

Well that sucked.

Pretty much.

If you can't score off of Bauer and Tomlin, you don't deserve to win. Cleveland was vulnerable with 2 of their top 3 starters on the shelf and Sox bats were ice cold.

I think everyone without a direct rooting interest has to be pulling for Cubs/Indians, right?

 

[Hewson]

Nats/Indians

Dusty Baker is a godawful playoff manager, but you guys knew that already.

We had DC's first NLCS in, what, 80 years sitting in our laps and threw it in the trash. I have a terrible feeling about game 5.

Yeah, from a history standpoint, it would be neat to see. I liked the Nats better when they were the Expos.

 

[DaveC]

can't wait for the jays/giants series!

 

[LemonMelon]

Max Scherzer vs Rich Hill on 3 days' rest confirmed for game 5.

If we lose, DC passes Buffalo for worst sports city in America.

Well, I feel just a bit sick at this point. I can't understand how the fans who have been watching since 45 do this every season.

 

[bono_212]

Not saying I'm giving up, I simply mean the amount of negative energy one has to take in every season.

baseball is a hell of a drug.

 

[bono_212]

Indeed. Wow.

 

[Hewson]

Gonna be a long wait.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

No baseball tonight

 

[PhilsFan]

Hockey's back so I guess we'll tread water with that until Utley tries to finish the job.

 

[bono_212]

That's what I've been saying to anyone who will listen to me continue to blather on about baseball today: Thank God there is hockey tonight. I need something to tide me over til baseball is back. Damn ALDS and their sweeps

 

[DaveC]

let's see if this works again.

can't wait for the jays/nats series!

 

[LemonMelon]

I feel sick.

Beer soon, lots of beer.

 

[mikal]

Fuck.

 

[LemonMelon]

I need at least 6 months away from baseball.

It's the little things, but it's been 13 years since the Cubs have won a NLCS game, and to see it happen was just a nice little bit of relief. Just like last year when they finally won an NLDS game after being swept in 07 and 08, being swept in the NLCS last year just left me so deflated.

Scary game, lots of issues with the team, the Indians are looking far more dominate. Hope we can take the game against Kershaw. I'm going to try to go to all the LA games if I can, however many there may be, but we'll see if work allows it.

 

[VintagePunk]

the Indians are looking far more dominate.

They are fucking terrifying. I have tickets to Monday and Tuesday's games, but part of me wants to sell them now, and go through the winter with the memory of being at the winning ALDS game, rather than being there to witness a possible sweep.

 

[DaveC]

i'll buy your tuesday tickets if you decide not to go, although i think that's absolute madness.

 

[VintagePunk]

I'll keep that in mind. We'll probably end up going though. It's just the crushing disappointment talking.

 

[bono_212]

Even if the Cubs dropped all three games, if all three LA games are played, I'm going to try to attend them. It's playoff baseball, you gotta go.

 

[DaveC]

It's just the crushing disappointment talking.

that's the spirit.
