god this board is dead. does anybody even care? haha.

anyway, anybody doing the playoff pool thing where you pick the teams to win in however many games each round, etc? I can't remember who did but I want another crack at it since I did so poorly last two years.

What a game in the wild card tiebreaker between the Rockies and Padres - probably the best game of the regular season.
Very questionable call at the end, but the game should've been over earlier, were it not for Holliday misplaying a fly ball that resulted in the Padres tying. With the way the Rockies were spanking him, Hoffman would've lost the game soon after anyways. Amazing run by the Rox.

Interesting that it's pretty much a new cast of characters in the playoffs this year, as none of the teams, other than the Yankees, were in the playoffs last year.

I say Yanks in 4 over the Indians...need more time to think of the other series. I love this time of year!

The guy has now proven himself to be a self absorbed money hungry punk in my opinion. I predict even people who hate the Yankees will deplore this decision. How much money does the fucking guy want!? The Yankees tried to offer him a 5 year extension beyond 2010 that would have paid him something like 150 million for another 5 seasons on top of the 25 million he was guaranteed to get for the next three years.

Texas must be loving this since they're off the hook for deferred salary. Whatever...I hope Cashman sticks to his guns and lets him walk. Where's Arod going to go now? Fucking Boston? How could they even think about taking him?

Professional athletes and sports in general are getting out of hand with all this BS. It really turns people off.

probably: Giants, White Sox, Red Sox, Dodgers

big maybe: Mets, Angels, Cubs

I would say the Cubs have a better shot than the Giants.

It's also not completely about money if A-Rod hated playing in New York too. He also wants a ring and with the uncertainty of where the Yankees will head after this offseason, he can just opt out now. If he re-signs with the Yankess strictly for more money, than he's greedy as hell. But can you blame the guy? If people want to pay you, who's gonna be the one to say "no, I have enough thanks." Business is business. And anything that screws the Yankees over I'm a fan of. Red Sox again baby!!!

i doubt they are. unlike the yankees, they don't use the league as their personal farm team. besides, they have a team that is clutch in the post season, why would they lower that batting average?

if anyone gets the f*ck, my guess is that it'll be the Angels.
