MattLoveModels Posted October 16, 2008 Posted October 16, 2008 Don't think I dont know youre avoiding this thread kdub Well, here I am. To you and your Phillies, CONGRATS!!! You guys had the better team, and my Dodgers couldn't overcome. Whoever thought that there would be a Phillies-Rays WORLD SERIES?! Now, I usually go for the team that represents the NL, but I might have to root for T.B should they make it. I mean, Evan Longoria was born in Downey, and went to Long Beach State. Can't root against a fellow Angelino, can I? Half of the Phillies lineup is from southern cal though the BEAT LA!!! chants have already started in Philly. Copycats At least we're gonna be in the World Series Quote

Half of the Phillies lineup is from southern cal though True enough, but did you take any solace when the Lakers beat Philly because Kobe is a Philly native? I hardly doubt it. Plus, I said fellow Angelenos, born and raised. Cole Hamels doesn't count. He is from San Diego. Scott Eyre might have been born in Inglewood, but grew up in Montana. So, the only born and raised Angelenos are Chase Utley, Greg Dobbs, and Ryan Madson. And Actually, Tampa Bay has other SoCal natives besides Longoria. James Shields is also from the L.A. area. Besides, its kinda hard to root for a team that defeated my hometown team, isn't it? Quote
Joe > Average Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Good to see your huge font again k dub , congrats on your Phillies Matt . Quote

Besides, its kinda hard to root for a team that defeated my hometown team, isn't it? the reason I like the Lakers is cuz Kobe went to a school I pass by every time i go into the city. I still would have rather the sixers won. and i always root for the NL team. just like i always root for the East or NFC team, even if they beat my team in the previous round, maybe thats just me.

MattLoveModels Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 great pitching last night. if we can steal this game tonight i'd say the series is ours. btw who the fuck even likes the Rays? i still thought they were called the Devil Rays. and the cowbell thing? how stupid is that? the only people that like the Rays are people who live within 5 mile radius of Tampa. Otherwise they probably stick with underachieving Marlins. just stating my opinion Quote

Otherwise they probably stick with underachieving Marlins.Matt, I agree. They should have awarded the Phillies the whole darn thing after the Red Sox lost, because surely no one can be watching this feeble excuse of a World Series. The most annoying thing about the Rays story is suddenly all these nuckleheads are coming out of the woodwork like they've supported the team for years. The only Rays I've ever spoken to was Bellazon's own Hyperion, and that was on the Internet~! Having that said, I like the Marlins, they're my favourite NL team by a clear distance. Quote
k_dub Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 I think it's pretty safe to say nobody outside of Philly and Tampa Bay don't care to watch much of this world series. I think a lot of people wanted to see Dodgers-Red Sox. Imagine the drama of a WORLD SERIES LIKE THAT!!! Nomar, Derek Lowe, and MANNY back in FENWAY PARK?! What a great storyline THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN!!! Instead, were stuck with the Rays and Phillies. As far as fans coming out to support their team when they make the playoffs, that ain't nothin new. Remember when the Marlins made the World Series? How bout the Angels? Nobody really cared about them until they made it to the Fall Classic. However, being a Dodger fan, I hate the Giants, so seeing the Angels beat them WAS FUN!!! :hell yea!: :dance: Quote
Frederick Posted October 25, 2008 Posted October 25, 2008 It is nothing new, it just it irked me specifically with the Rays because, call me old fashion, I don't consider them a 'proper' baseball franchise. Quote
MattLoveModels Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Wow tonight was fun. Fuck you Rays and your no history team. Its been 25 years since my city has gotten a championship. I hope we send you and your "great" Longoria home on Tuesday Quote
Frederick Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Media's inevitable response to Rays 4-1 defeat: This is a young team, they can only learn from this! Go Rays! Media's April AL East preview: Yeah, Yankees! Yeah, Red Sox! You can never count out Toronto! The Orioles, what a great history! Who are these 'Rays' I see listed? Quote

Limerlight Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 This thread hasn't been posted in in awhile it seems. How about some surprises this year? Quote
MattLoveModels Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 yea, how bout how the phillies fuckin suck cant win a home game for the life of them Quote
Limerlight Posted June 27, 2009 Posted June 27, 2009 yea, how bout how the phillies fuckin suck cant win a home game for the life of them They're beating up on the Jays today. I'll say the Jays actually. I did not predict them to have the record they have. Quote
k_dub Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 This thread hasn't been posted in in awhile it seems. How about some surprises this year? How bout myTRUE BLUE DODGERS?! Say what say about their division, they still haven't lost 3 games in a row all year. And hey, the Giants are in our division, and they would be the Wild Card team is the season ended now. Even without Manny, Dodgers are still able to win, and Manny will be back soon. And another walk-off win TONIGHT!!! This time it was Either with a 2-run homer. Quote

I thought (like many others) that they`d do terrible without manny, but they haven`t. Just proving the depth they have. Too bad Pierre has to go back to the bench though Quote
steve with an s Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 Yes, agree. Pierre was excellent. And the Dodgers did much better than expected in the absence of Ramirez. Impressive season so far. Didn't think they would have the pitching to be #1 in the entire NL. As for surprises, I'll say the Giants. The team has the second-best record in the National League, and were supposed to be light-hitting (they are) and also-rans (they're not). The team might send 3 players to the All-Star game. To replace their ineffective fifth starter, they called up what was "supposed" to be a spot-starter, and if I remember correctly, he wasn't even on their 40-man, with some speculation that he was picked-up mostly because he was expected to get through waivers when he was sent back. He's unscored on in two appearance, and has thrown 13 consecutive shutout innings now. Surprising team! Quote
steve with an s Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 There was actually an entertaining article in today's paper about the Giants' new starter. If you like baseball, you might enjoy the article (whether or not you like the Giants). Check out the stat box at the end of the column. Talk about night-and-day! http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?.../SP2N18J0RP.DTL Quote
Limerlight Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 The jays are starting to listen to offers on Doc.I like the move, if they can manage to resign him next year it's gonna be for alot of money, and they know it. And doc wants to be on a contender, which i don't think the Blue Jays can be, espically right now with that pitching staff (Richmond just going on the DL the other day) Romero has been a pleasent surprise meanwhile Quote
