twins in an epic 5 game series

seriously?

Why not?

seriously!

I think I quit predicting in these playoff threads in the last couple of years...can't get past who I'm rooting for to think about who I think will win. I'm a better predictor in NFL because I don't care about any particular teams as much.

So who I'm rooting for is Twins, Angels, Rockies, Dodgers; Twins, Rockies; Twins.

Twins in whatever it takes

You always pick who you're rooting for.

Awesome thread title Morbs!

ok - i'd *love* for the Twins to win in 3. but i don't think they have a snowballs chance.

You always pick who you're rooting for.

Huh??

That's crap, Morbs, did you pick the Mets to win the NL East this year?

sure. (so did Sports Illustrated)

I should clarify -- I think "predicting" a 3-of-5 series is nuts. obv the Yanks are prohibitive favorites, so it's only fun to pick MIN. No guts, no glory.

guys, i really, really hope this stadium fucks the yankees in the ass via two bloop homers to RF by nick punto

i hope the series turns on a horrible pitching performance by aj burnett

And that Posada is shown smirking in the dugout during said performance.

A+++++, would patronize all commercial sponsors of Yankee Stadium assfucking, even Geico.

TBS guys, speaking about Jeter: "he seems to get a big hit every time the team needs one"

Yeah, a leadoff single in a scoreless game in the first inning of Game 1. What a huge hit that was.

The Yankees are back in the postseason, let the verbal blowjobs begin.

244 HR from a $200M payroll in a bandbox, how amazing

hmmmm so the pitch track will be permanently on the screen, huh?

can someone point me to a good stream of this?

LOB-Rod

just muted sound. Tried ESPN Radio: Steve Phillips, so that won't work...

Chokey McChokerson choking like a a choker there.

oh, THIS guy with the wig and the bad suits again??

Cano CANNOT

robinson canto

can someone point me to a good stream of this?

At least we're going to get an epic Sandman vs Mauer matchup out of this.

wait when do the yankees lose one in the dome? that shit is basically mandatory.

fuckin amazing how he can still break dudes' bats at will

Yeah, not so epic. Hell of an anticlimax there.

It seems that they're not letting Joe Nathan anywhere near this game.

whaaaat the hell

got home in top of the 9th; glad I went to that old Bollywood film.

lol, nice looking K

some cheese eating rube managed a witticism the level of your thread title.

I yam skeptical

dang i got two 12 dollar game 5 bleacher seats.. oh well

no but really i was gunning for those newly opened up SRO $50 tix on sale last monday. kind of knew it wouldnt happen either way.,

so do they debase themselves with champagne?

hey how come a couple shots of twins fans crying but no afternoon shots of reaffirming lifewater that are red sox fan tears?
lame double standard.

wait when do the yankees lose one in the dome? that shit is basically mandatory.

Absolutely untrue. I'm glad we've finally retired the Metrodome so we can finally put to rest the ridiculous assumption that the monstrosity is some sort of secret weapon for the Twins. I'm not overly familiar with the stats, but I'd be surprised if they've won even remotely close to half of their home games during the entirety of their 2000s postseason appearances.

no, not recent PS. People are talking reg season & '87 and '91.

'Amazin' debt for Miracle Met Ron Darling

Tax agencies in two states and the IRS have former New York Mets pitcher and TBS analyst Ron Darling caught in a squeeze play. Darling, who helped call the Yankees-Twins game Sunday, owes $544,197 in state and federal taxes, records show.

The 49-year-old Hawaii native earned $17.9 million during a 13-season career, according to Baseball-Reference.com. He won a World Series ring with the Mets in 1986.

What's owed:

* The IRS filed a $71,076 lien against Darling on July 29 in the New York City Register's office.
* The state of New York filed a $12,664 tax warrant against Darling on May 23 in the New York County Clerk's office.
* The state of California filed an $84,860 lien against Darling on June 6, 2008, in Contra Costa County Court.
* The IRS filed a $375,597 lien against Darling on May 15, 2008, in the New York City Register's office.

His side:

Darling could not be reached for comment. Turner Sports spokesman Jeff Pomeroy said he left the retired pitcher a cell-phone message and forwarded an e-mail from The Tax Watchdog.

"We will not comment as this is a personal issue," Pomeroy wrote in an e-mail message.

Ticketmaster appreciates pickpocketing you, sucker

Was just watching the end-of season highlight reel on MLB Channel and had forgotten how terribly the Twins played in this series. Like, miserably.
