The A's are going to take the AL West this year. Gonna spend my whole summer at Oakland Coliseum.

 

They looked Good Against the Rangers this weekend,,,

 

Wait 'til the season starts.

 

My Giants are off to a shaky start, but I have confidence in them to contend again for the championship.

But even if they don't, we had a heckuva ride, didn't we?

GO GIANTS!! WOOHOOO!!!! *lifting up my top and shaking my boobs*

 

Opening Day was last Friday....LOL

Oh, never mind.

 

I would say your guys are off to a rough start...

 

mariners are my top pick.....but i really like the red sox and braves...but overall the mariners

 

Sometimes the positions on a Baseball team can be a bit complex, so to simplify the explanation, let's have a couple of old timers explain things. Try and keep up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sShMA85pv8M

 

To Doc Fantasy- looks like your team lost their new Japanese player to serious injury. They should just forfeit the games they play in the Bronx, at least until the post season. But the result would usually be the same.

Go Yanks! :excited:

 

It could be a month or more depending on how bad it is. He could be back later in the season. Don't count us out yet. We are a feisty bunch.

 

I don't count you out(or anyone at this stage yet ) Minnesotas is a very good team, they just seem to be snakebit when it comes to the NYY.


Go Yanks!

Just heard Manny Ramirez was busted taking performance enhancing drugs in spring training.

 

An upcoming important game will be played on May 15, 2011 in Atlanta, Ga.
It is the Fifth Annual Civil Rights Game: Phillies at Braves

This year, they are honoring three major people with the Beacon Award: Ernie Banks, Morgan Freeman, and Carlos Santana. http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20110323&content_id=17081386&vkey=civilrights2011

I know we don't talk much about cultural diversity here on the forum, but in a sport like baseball, it cuts across divides in countries around different parts of the world, mostly in the Central American ones that embrace the sport. This is so important to embrace the differences that make up the game. It is not a sport delegated to a stuffy crowd, but it belongs to all people. This is just something to think about as you ponder this thread. Thanks.

 

Lets hear it for the best team in baseball

 

GO

 

With about three weeks in to the season, those that you'd expect to be doing well are (Yankees, Texas, and Phillies) The Colorado Rockies and The Cincinnati Reds are leading their respective divisions, but the Cubs are only a game behind the Reds. They are making it special before they let down their fans for the countless time again. The only real surprise are the Cleveland Indians that are in first in the AL Central while my Twins are bottom dwellers for the moment.

So what do you think so far of the season?

 

That's the way baseball go !...

 

If someone were to ask me why I like both baseball and the Grateful Dead, the following article in the link will explain it all. http://www.levity.com/gans/baseball.html

 

...except for Boston, who I'm told were the Vegas favourites to lift the crown this year. 0-6 start and now they're 5-10.

Still early days, of course.
