I was nervous as hell heading into that series. A lot of people were underestimating the Yankees.

I was just hoping to not get swept-especially after Girardi gave away game 2. Running all the way to game 7 of the ALCS was completely unexpected-which always makes it more fun-especially as a Yankee fan. Not too many years do they have those lower expectations.

I think Cleveland is a tougher out than people think. They've never been pushed all year and they have 4 starters with 200 K's. They're better built for the playoffs than the regular season.
Considering how many more Sox than Houston fans there are it's possible they set the Sox odds lower so they don't take a beating if they do win.
I'm not stating anything about cle other than according to the oddsmakers they are the 4th best team left in the AL and thus according to the oddsmakers that's an easier road to the WS from a betting perspective than the Yanks or Red Sox have. Also that Hou has HFA in this round and the Yanks don't.

Shit happens, pitchers tighten up, hitters squeeze their bats a little too hard, and suddenly it's the off-season.

What a great way to describe it. Fucking shit happens so fast.

Trevor Bauer put the stones to the Yanks in Game 1, and with Kluber on the mound for Game 2, I was feeling pretty good. Six days later Didi F Gregorious put the stones to Kluber and the Indians' season. Twice. Fuck him. And Greg Bird. And @DirtDirtDirt.

Word. 2016 was a blast because I didn't think the Indians had any business winning a single series, let alone going to game 7 of the WS.

Last year, there were expectations, and those suck.

In order to do that to a guy, don't you have to put a chop stick or something in his dick hole?

Good Point, we'll use one of the twigs after we're done roasting marshmallows.

If you don't want you mother fucked, keep her off the streets.

If he didn't want his Mom fucked he wouldn't dress her like that and drop her off by the docks on the weekends.

@Carnzo, no matter how depraved my jokes are, you laugh at them. You're a sick fuck, and I commend you for it.

I forgot to mention, the Kavanaugh threads are interesting. Apparently there's a bunch of sexual terms the guy and his friends used I've never heard of. I somehow feel less of a man which I didn't think was possible
