Title: The Implosion Is Nearly Complete...
Post by: NHSparky on September 27, 2011, 08:35:48 AM
2-10 to start the season.  9-16 in September.  9 game WC lead blown in a mere 3 1/2 weeks.

Soon....

Tampa has Hellickson and Price going back-to-back against a disinterested Yankees' squad too. Not looking good for the Sux.

Looks like Epstein was able to deflect blame straight onto Francona with the Henrys.

The Braves matched the Sox.  Which makes this Mets fan very glad.

Sorry, but Theo the Spreadsheet needed to go as well.  He has WAY overpaid for free agents that simply haven't lived up to the hype.

Sounds similar to Omar Minaya.

Someone's head had to roll...why not the useless pitching coach or the compulsive spender?  There's talk of bringing in Charlie Manuel.

And yes, the Yankees (or Bankees, or Yankmees, or whatever else you prefer) lost last night.  ARod hit .111 in the playoffs.  The Yankees left the bases loaded in the fourth and seventh innings.  And there's grumblings about their starting pitching.

I am just seeing this thread.   First and foremost -- the Angels did what this season besides lose?    That's right, they don't count or matter, so back to the topic.


The silver lining in this joke of a season is Tito being given his walking papers.

He is going.  The Angels want him.   :-)

Someone has to hold Scioscia's jockstrap.  But frankly, I don't think Theo's up to the task.

Wave that third-place banner proudly, Red Sux Nation.  And don't think a new year is going to solve your woes.  You're another year older, not another year better, too many holes to fill, and too many overpriced and overrated players slowing your shit down.

HAHAHAHA --- said from the fan of the insignificant west coast team. 

There is no waving anything here in the MLB (but Boston already has a championship banner this year remember?).   We'll be fine, the Angels?   like the Jets it;s always their year, and it's never their year. 

You can't fix that.   :-)

And the Phillthies are out, though I don't like the fact that Ryan Howard ruptured his left Achilles tendon.  The only other Phillthie I'd feel worse for would be Raul Ibanez, who seemed to be one of the reasons that Citizens' Bank Park isn't going to be rockin' tonight.
