Should they have teams in Canada, because after all, it's cold up there?
Oh my F$#@in' mother of god
Originally posted by mankie:then, let me put it this way. . . baseball should not have put teams in florida and arizona, because expansion was a terrible idea, both economically to the game, and has caused, in general, a watering down of talent. the surge in runs scored and home runs was not solely due to steriod use, but can also be attributible to the decline in the amount of good pitchers in the major leagues thanks to the increase of teams. it has taken nearly 10 years for quality pitching to show up again and be available to all teams. course, the yankees will just buy all the good pitchers eventually.

that, and the fans in florida are terrible. . .and don't really care about the game itself. sort of like dodger fans in l.a., show up late and leave early.
expansion killed the nhl way back when too…

Originally posted by Venerable Bede:I agree. Nashville, Phoenix, Dallas, Florida, Tampa, Atlanta, and any team in Cali should NOT be playing hockey. I think we should get other countries into the NHL, like Sweden and Finland.

Originally posted by SPIN:i was all set to join in that remark against the yankees, but the way manny and derek lowe acted in game 5 against the a's. . i don't know. manny should have been hit the next time he was up, and lowe should be fined. so, i'm not gonna root for any team in the alcs, since the a's lost.
Go Red Sox.
Originally posted by Venerable Bede:I think Manny was just kinda happy he finally got a hit and was kinda doing that like "thank god" kinda walk. No harm as far as I'm concerned.

As for Lowe….i was too busy hugging people at the bar to see what he did, but shit, he saved the series, cut hiim some slack, he probably doesnt even know what he did!
