Well it seems that Everyone is happy but AMP. Although he can be happy they did not end up in last place all around. I am only happy because of the Nationals and that the Angels (bleh) did not make it.

I'm not that disappointed.  The Cubs didn't do much worse than I expected.  Losing 100 games is epically lousy though.


So you are basically saying that if the Cubs do not go to the playoffs then you do not want any Chicago team to go? huh!..Huh!!!

Oh, it's not like that.  I hoped that the White Sox made it, but I'm not upset that they didn't.  Does that make sense?

"since"

 

Yes it does make Since. But I am not happy.

 

I will have to go with Orioles vs Nationals. That is my dream W.S match up at this time.

I'll probably pull for the Orioles or Oakland.  The Nationals deserve to fail for shutting down Strasburg.

Good times. Good times.

Agreed.  I still can't believe it.

Its good to see the nationals have the best record in baseball on a 80 million dollar payroll. I said back in April that we would be going places, I still predict a world series birth, hopefully a worlds series win.

So the playoff picture as it stands today:

N.L. Wildcard: Cardinals @ Braves

N.L.D.S.: Giants @ Reds, Cardinals/Braves @ Nationals

A.L. Wildcard: Orioles @ A's Rangers

A.L.D.S.: Tigers @ A's, Orioles/Rangers @ Yankees

 

Should be some good matchups. It's obvious which AL team I'm pulling for, but ideally I'd like to face the Nationals in the Series. Be nice to say hi to Gio and Kurt again!

The Cards are going to need some luck to beat Medlen.  His stats are crazy this year.

I'm pulling for the Cardinals, exclusively because you're a fan, but it really does seem like an uphill battle. Of course, it's just one game, so heavens knows anything can happen. I'm also seriously pulling for the Orioles, but Saunders v. Darvish isn't as favorable a matchup as I'd like.

Who do you honestly think will win in the A's -Orioles match up?

 

This Wild Card thing is really exciting I think. Anyone know which channel the Braves/Cardinals will be on today?

I honestly believe with 100% confidence that the A's will advance to the ALDS. Not as sure about the Orioles, though.

Teasing, of course. I'm not sure either team makes it to the ALCS, but if they do I'd give the A's the edge. Hometown bias there, though.

As for which channel the game is on, I believe both games are on TBS today.



But the Braves have promised to have 36,000 foam tomahawks chopping in unison. How could you not root for that?!



Texas: where even the chokes are big.

And while I'm sure the talk will be about the blown call in Atlanta, man they played some terrible, terrible defense. That's really the way you want to go out, Chip?
