Rays Celebrate Game 163 Win Like it's the World Series

[HammerDown]

havent spoken to him since I dubbed him Miskolini

I forgot who did that but it's pure genius.

"Benito Miskolini"

 

[HammerDown]

Yep.

Basically the Indians are the Yankees. They play exceptionally well against shit teams, but if they play any kind of quality team they get beat.

A lot of people have forgotten about that because the Indians haven't played a quality team since they got beat 2 out of 3 against the Royals 2 weeks ago, but they'll be reminded Wednesday night.

Rays win 9-2

I can't wait for these games tonight. I say this every year, but I really mean it this time; I'm more excited about the playoffs than I have been in a long time.

There's only one game tonight.

What is V Cash?

Electronic gaming funds. You have 500 of them to use here on SportsHoopla, which appear just above the logos on your profile at left. Just for fun, no real money at stake.

I...wasn't being serious. It would have been funnier if you knew what they were.

I has failed...

Whoops, the way ESPN is listing it, it looks like both WC games are tonight. Okay, much better.

I'm at my first impasse. I like the Reds better but am sure they can't beat the Cards (can hear Thom Brenamann in my head right now with "Chris, is this Cards team the most dominating you've ever seen and is Yadier the best ever?"). My priorities for the playoffs are:

1.) Cards get eliminated
2.) Rays get eliminated
3.) Red Sox get eliminated

I just laid half my vCash on the Reds to win at +1.5 runs.

I should be more excited this year for more and bonus baseball, but, i'm not.

Losing so bad in fantasy this year has taken all the fun and joy out of the game for me at the moment.

Of course you are. The town is represented.

ONLY IN OAKLAND!!!

Did you go to bed thinking you had won $450 only to wake up the next morning to find out that the RBI you thought won you the World Series was on an error and didn't count and you lost by 1/2 a point?

I did.



It's been two weeks and it still smarts.

that is bizarre, Big

the Dodgers arent everyone's pick to go to the Series and many to win it

your team has their best chance at a title in a long time

and you arent that excited about because your fantasy team sucks?

Well, since I can't wager what I do not have.......?

It's not a pain I feel.

I find myself in a lot of sports conversations lately where guys are saying the exact opposite of what would make logical sense, and when I point it out to them, they go, "Oh, I'm not talking about the actual game, I'm talking about my fantasy team..."

That, or they're Hammer.

Yes. You are correct. And, I am surprised that you are surprised. I take fantasy ball VERY seriously, and I have very high expectations of myself in that area. When I fail and let myself down, I feel it.

It's called being that much more invested in a venture than just being a viewing fan.

Well, it is a still growing industry..........

Other than that, I don't know what to tell you.
