2010 Championship Series Thread

Wow. Nobody in blue saw that the ball hit Swisher and changed directions?

The random thoughts that couldn't be posted on brewerfan.net thread on the political board is coming in handy right now.

[craigharmann]

Even though the umps are clueless, the Rangers are trying to win in spite of them.

[trwi7]

HAHAHAHA! Eat it, Yankees. Go buy some million dollar kleenex.

[owbc]

I definitely did not see that coming, but I am glad the Rangers beat the Yankees. Also awesome to see Vlad jumping on top of the pile and the ginger ale celebration on the field.

Best part of this is no more Ernie Johnson announcing games.

[pitchleague]

they showed a young Yankee fan with his hands on his head and the beginnings of tears in his eyes as A-Rod came to the plate. I almost wanted to punch him right through my television. Get over it, kid.

My buddy found out that standing room tickets are $220......if I had money, I'd be there. Otherwise, we'll be getting together and watching the games! Can't wait!

The Yankees' playoff hopes are as dead as George Steinbrenner. No more looking at those gaudy "The Boss" patches this season.

 

Great to see the Rangers go to the World Series. The enthusiasm from the fans there last night was amazing.

I wouldn't be surprised if they continue to sport those patches in 2011.

 

As for the teary eyed kid, if he's really that into the Yankees - as much as we are into the Brewers - I am willing to cut him some slack. If I'd had the opportunity to be in St. Louis to see the Brewers' 1982 season end, I would have been this person, only with a different logo on:

Though if my crying face were forever connected on the internets with Brewers' futility, I'd be even more unhappy.

 

Anyway, congratulations to Texas and Rangers fans. We know what it's like to wait a long time.

If the Giants win the NLCS, Bengie Molina will get a ring no matter what.

[trwi7]

If only everyone could sing God Bless America like Kane Kalas. Well done, sir.

ARRIBA URIBE!

When the playoffs started, probably the last World Series matchup I would have imagined would be Rangers/Giants. I'm so glad it's not Yanks/Phils.

[hawing]

I'm so glad it's not Yanks/Phils.

No kidding. Texas-San Francisco is a series I'll actually watch. Take that, FOX!

[bucksman4]

Can we get a photoshop pic of Bud Selig crying like the woman with the Cubbies hat?

 

We all know he was hoping for the ratings boost of NY/PHI in the World Series. Go underdogs!
