    now I understand, this is a prediction thread. NYY are still the team to beat in the AL and have got to be favorites to win the WS. I still hate them though.

    The Yanks will likely have home field against the Angels should they meet in the playoffs-- and they will handle them then as they handled them last week at home. Perhaps you missed that game. Though maybe they'll hit some bombs...instead of beating them at their own running game (as in our double steal).

    Yankees will derail and fall apart before making it to the World Series.

    Guess we'll just have to settle this year for winning our division...yet again. And having the best record in baseball. Woe is us. What a failed season.

    Whoever's got that crystal ball, I can definitely use some lottery numbers for this week image And the scores by which the Yanks will lose so I can at least lay some bets down and make some bank off my misery.
  • Matt - the Red Sox/Yankees scores will be 14-3, 7-6, and 8-2. Coincidentally, those are also the Lottery numbers. You'll have to pick the Powerball number yourself though. I couldn't make it out - that darn crystal ball gets cloudy after breathing on it for a while.

    Sup Von! Well five numbers gets me like a quarter mill so ok. That'll def take the sting out of Vegas this past wknd. And leave some extra loot for some minis. Take care bro. Off to gym.

    Edit: I just hope the Sox beat the Angels in the first round if the match-ups stay that way. I think my boys have a better shot in Fenway. 6-19 or something like that in Anaheim if I'm not mistaken since '02.

  • I really, really don't want the Sox to have to play the Yankees in the playoffs, although it would make for an entertaining series. I'm not really confident against the Angels either. In fact, the only teams I'd feel good about playing would be the Tigers or the Twins. That said, anything can happen in the playoffs and that is what makes them so much fun to watch.
  • The door to the broom closet is open. Angels take game #1!!

    Did the Yankee B-team just wax the Los Angeles Angeles of, er, was it The California-- no, wait-- the Anaheim, whatever, did the Yanks B-squad just wax these guys in the rubber game IN Anaheim? That makes 3 of the last 4 to the Yanks, including a series win on the road. We beat them with speed on the bases. We beat them with the longball. We beat them with good pitching. How many other ways could we have housed these guys? The present belongs to the Yanks. And if we want to talk past, then it makes logical sense to talk the ENTIRE past, which is not a sports debate that favors the Angels.

    Edit: To be fair these games were nail-biters, and so I'd still rather face the Sox than a team of .300 hitters, even with a Game 7 at Yankee Stadium. I'm more than happy to not see the Angels again until next year. So so strange to have to root for the Sox in the post-season.

    Your second paragraph saved the day. Now I don't have to type up a rediculous response to your first paragraph...image
