Title: Major League baseball's upcoming season.
Post by: Jman on March 28, 2004, 11:55:27 AM
Well, who is looking forward to the baseball season?  I am.  This is where you tell about your favorite team, or anything relating to baseball.  My favorite team is the Minnesota Twins, who will try for a third consecutive AL Central Division Title.

Only when I''m tired do I come up with random rambling signatures like this one. "Are you a Mario fan?  What?  You don''t like Mario? Die!"

I'm a Yankee fan. I saw the game they plaid in Tokyo against the Yomiyoshi(?) Giants. They haven't been playing too well lately, although when they won against the Red Socks for the penant last year, that was a truly awesome game.

The Twins are 17-8, that's the best exhibition record in baseball right now.

Yeah, I know all about "The curse"  that strangely plagues both the Red Sox and the Cubs.  But, you never know.  It could be the Sox vs the Cubs in the World Series.

Good news for luigi~lover: Sporting News magazine predicts that the Boston Red Sox will make the World Series.
Bad news for luigi~lover: Sporting News predicts the BoSox will lose to... (get this) the Chicago Cubs in the World series. And I am a Chicago Cubs fan. *bigger sigh*

A big sigh that everyone thinks it is a goat's fault that the Cubs can't make the World Series.
A bigger sigh that someone thinks that blowing up that infamous baseball from game 6 of the NLCS overrides the goat.

*sigh*

Yeah, the Yankees got whooped by Tampa Bay last night.  The Twins don't play their first game until this coming Monday.

Yeah but the Yankees killed Tampa Bay this morning in Tokyo, 12-1. People said it'd be the Boston Red Sox VS the Cubs last year and look what happened? Wrong. I can't believe the Yankees lost to Florida... that's pathetic. It's like losing to a group of Goombas in Super Mario RPG.

Well, the Twins won last night in extra innings.  But it looks like they might lose tonight.

I was wrong.  Jacque Jones tied the game with a two run homer in the bottom of the ninth with two outs, and the game went to extra innings.  After squandering several chances, the Twins won the game when Jose Offerman hit a ground ball up the middle to score the winning run from 3rd.  This was in the 15th inning.

If the Cubs and Red Sox ever both made the World Series, it would go to game seven. And game seven would go 32 innings with no winner every time they attempt to play it.

I'm a Yankees fan, been going to games since '99. I'm going to Opening Day tomorrow.
I can't believe the Yank's lost last night. Mussina has not been pitching good of late. But we'll win today, Brown is pitching.

I think that pro Baseball players are over payed. I do more than them, and get payed almost nothing.

I like Catterpillars.

Well, that's due to the abnormal high proportion of pay for people who entertain. This includes athletes, "musicians" (And I use that term VERY loosely), actors/actresses, etc.

And when you mention '69, that means an ENTIRELY different thing to someone who follows the Cubs. Can you say "worst choke EVER"?

Well here we go, Luigi Lover.  Your favorite baseball team vs my favorite baseball team.  Red Sox vs Twins.

The three things I could live without: a kick in the teeth, a punch to the stomach, and a low blow.
The one thing anyone who threatens my friends needs: a swift kick in the butt.

I used to be a Yankee fan, but now I just hate baseball. It has become too competitive.

Remember at the last ALCS, some Boston person punched out a New Yorker because the Yankees were winning? (Actually I dunno the whole story on that, I'm just thinking that happened.)

Well, it's the all-star break!  Let's watch the all-star game tomorrow, and there's the home run derby tonight!
