99% of a team's fans don't get to see them in person at home anyway, they watch on TV

That wasn't the point. In a sport where playoffs are in a series format, I don't see how you can say your team made the playoffs if they lose in this one game garbage. You don't even feel like your team made the playoffs if they lose in the one game play in game even if that that game is played at home. That's another thing. They should change the name of it. It is not the playoffs. It is a play in game to get into the playoffs.

Who gives a fuck what they call it? I was at The Jake when the Indians lost the 2013 Wild Card Game. I guess I don't consider it a full playoff berth, but who gives a fuck?

Says you.

I think it's awesome and I'm glad I get my way and you don't.


Think of it this way. Without 5 teams and the play in game, the Indians play the Yankees and get Severino's shitburger in the first inning. Indians win that game with Bauer and then cakewalk to the series win. Now the Yankees know Severino is a little sketchy and will be cautious. If the Yankees beat the Indians, you can blame the play in game and the 5 team format. Hope you're happy.

Mad I'm going to miss the show

he's such a lolcow. Guy asked him a legitimate question and Francesa makes fun of him. I don't think Francesa really knows how teams are managed nowadays.

I just had some Ghirardelli milk chocolate with sea salt and almonds. I didn't like it so much. It says the almonds are roasted, but they didn't seem very crunchy.

I'm thinking he's going to have to address it, no? If you google his name, this story has spread pretty well.

I don't expect him to. He's an adamant douche.


It was a one-game playoff. You don't think Girardi is going to contemplate taking his pitcher out if he doesn't look like he has it?

Every caller should ask about it.

Last night I think when Robertson was pitching, Sanchez came out for a mound visit. Now Robertson had no men on I believe and yet this "meeting" was ridiculously long for just a chit chat. I hope the Indians don't put up with that shit.
