Re: (4/5-4/12) Opening Week Game Commentary Thread

oooh yeah, my Dodgers up 4-1 so far over the Padres. With Peavy pitchingi thought we were going to lose today. Well, game still isnt over, but good to see Peavy give up some runs.

It is.

Once you take a one-run lead against the Padres, you can practically take a nap through the game and count on a win.

Just keep walking Adrian Gonzalez and good things will happen.

what's going on in Toronto? They pulled the Tigers off the field. The fans are throwing stuff on the field.

Terror in Toronto.

Some lush throw a ball onto the field, and others I guess were throwing trash and other items.



How would've though that Toronto had a little "philly" in them.

It's only the drunks that attend opening day. I bet most of those people throwing junk at the Tigers were Detroit fans. Man Lind and Snider looked GREAT out there. Hopefully that becomes the norm.

Re: (4/5-4/12) Opening Week Game Commentary Thread

lol it wasn't Detroit fans. It was the same idiots who show up every opening night and do that.

I just can't wait for the article in the paper blaming TFC fans so I can bang my head against a brick wall.

I gotta get you a new updated Rios avatar. I had a crappy monitor when I made that and apparently the bill on Rios's helmet is missing.

Oh cool, that would be much appreciated. I didn't notice the lack of a bill until you mentioned it.

Sand, I get what you are saying. But say they don't make it. Will there be 40 reporters in the brewers locker room asking him if he is worth the money? I'll even concede there was some pressure with the brewers but nothing like a team that expects to be in the playoffs (Cleveland) or win the title (Yankees). That is what i'm trying say.

I get what you are saying, but if the Brewers don't make the playoffs and CC loses, guess who the blame goes too? Yep, CC and he literally took the Brewers on his shoulders the last month of the season.

Also, since the new owner has taken over the Brewers(and not the Selig's) it's expected the make they playoffs going from a $20 million salary to a little over $80 million.

Yeah, Brox didnt throw this hard last year did he? he looked fatter last year. He hit the 100's a few times. I was like you go Broxton. The first better he face, he just blew him away with pure fastballs. I was like whoa.

Well, its opening day, i didnt want to jinx anything. 4-1 win is good for now. Kemp with a nice play on defense, nice home run to dead center. Loney and Either both getting clutch hits. Furcal with about 3 hits. I dont remember right off the bat. I was in and out of the house watching the game.

But the pressure in New York is like nothing that CC has experienced before. The expectation that come with his contract, the astronomically high ticket prices and the expectations that the rotation will carry them to the title will ratchet up each day that the Yanks are not in first place come May and June.

With that said. A bad start on April 6th vs. the O's is nothing over the course of the season. But did you see how many mics were in his face after the game?

Re: (4/5-4/12) Opening Week Game Commentary Thread

White Sox blow a big chance to open the game up in the 2nd, by only getting a run when they had the bases loaded with no outs. 1-1 game in the 3rd in Chicago.
