      Baseball Playoffs

      Its October and with it comes the American Baseball Playoffs..  GO YANKEES!!!!!   The Yankees beat the sh*t out the Texas Rangers this years, Hicks Team.  That should be cause for all Liverpool fans to support the Yankees right their.  Since 99.9% of English sports fans think Baseball is boring, and for the most part their right, however not now. 

      If for any reason you wanted to understand why we watch and support Baseball, now is the time.  October baseball is great especially the playoffs to see who goes to the World Series.  If anyone is Interested, If you enjoy good sports, just for sports sake, watch it now if you can. GIVE IT A CHANCE. ;) You wont be disappointed.

      If you enjoy Cricket, you should enjoy Baseball.

      My overall prediction will be the New York Yankees vs Los Angeles Dodgers for the World Series.

      I am also here to answer any Baseball related questions, If needed! :f_doh:

      Keeping an eye on it myself, and courtesy of my mum buying me a yankees rain coat when i was a youngster back in Australia, im also a fan ;D
      Doing well so far, and even better is seeing the Red Sox two games down against the Angels :D

      Yeah thats sweet. Problem is the Angels match up to the Yankees real good.  All season the Angels played the Yankees tough.  I would of like d another Yankees/Sox series.

      Best thing is A-rod.  Historically he is awful in the playoffs. So far hes batting 500 w/ 2 hr and 5 RBI. If he plays well. Yankees will win the World Series.

      Although, I'm a Yankee fan.  I would like to see the Dodgers do well.   A Yankee v Dodgers World Series is perfect for me.

      Yup yup..Angels  have been trouble for us since 2002, but we seem to have their number this year. I said it too..gonna be dodgers v yankees.

      Arod. notoriously awful in October. Couldn't agree more about him being the difference.

      Being from Bklyn I of course don't hve a problem with the trolley Dodgers, but LA? Nope.

      Just saw that the Rockies game is postpones bc of snow. For meself, they're the NL team of choice.

      Yeah A-Rod is looking good so far, maybe finally got tired of jokes about him on all the late night shows? :D
      Boston, never write them off as much as I would like to, us Yankee's fans know what can happen.
      A face-off against Girardi would be fantastic though wouldn't it, agree on that.

      EDIT: I meant Torre up there, i didn't realize, i must have been that drunk i was mixing up Yankee's managers :D

      I would never count the Sox out...ALCS..Yankees up 3-0.  Lose 4 straight. Sox win Series!....Greatest comeback in Baseball History.

      Yeah it seems A-rod MAY have gotten the monkey off the back.  We'll see.

      I would like to see a Dodger Yankee Series.   Torre really got sh*t on by Steinbrenner Jr.  I'm a big Yankee fan, but I wouldn't be too upset if Torre and the Dodgers win it in NY. Thats just too poetic.   I love Joe Torre.  I wish he never left.  Yankees just made him the scapegoat for A-rods inability to play in October.  It came down to Torre or the 200 million dollar superstar.  So, out goes Torre.  Girardi was the right man for the job too.  Yankees do what they always do, keep it in the family, Girardi was a great Yankee, it was either him or Mattingly, but Mattingly stayed w/ Torre. I respect that.

      Yankees, In a cold October night in NY were just dominate. Yankees Won 4-1 take game 1 in the 7 game series against the L.A Angels.   So far in the playoffs they are 4-0 w/ just perfect Baseball.

      Great starting pitching from C.C Sabathia. C.C pitched 8 innings, 1 run and 8 K's.  Perfect save from Rivera. Yankees are playing great ball.

      GO YANKEES! Lets get 27. ;D

      Pah, just you watch. Red Sox will win!

      UH!  I'm still watching!   When exactly is that going to happen?   Sorry Dude, Not your year!  Yankees, got it good this year.  Sabathia, Lights out!

      I'm not a typical Red Sox hater. I respect the team and history and was actually glad they finally won the Series.. Tired of hearing about the god damn curse!
      Dont get me wrong, I love a good Yanks/Sox battle..Sox just didn't have it this year.  I'm sure they will next year. Spend some cash get another bat and some Pitching and they'll be right in it again.  I think they fu**ed themselves w/ Manny. Should of done whatever they had to too keep him in Boston.  If he was still their, it would of been a Yanks/Sox for the pennant.

      Good game so far.  2-2 10th Inning.

      Yankees putting together a 10th inning. 0 out man on first.  Would be nice to go to 2-0 to LA.

      Just got a bad umpire call our way.   Umpire fu**ed up. Lucky break for the Yanks.

      Great game...Epic duel.

      These games are why we love Baseball.  A good Baseball game is just as exciting as any other sport.

      2-0 going to LA... I think we can take 2 in LA.
