MLB Divisional Playoffs

Oakland 3 Minnesota 2

Pitcher's duel between Zito and Santana. Frank Thomas shows why people think he's the MVP by hitting 2 homeruns.

Sorry, Jim. I'm pulling for the Twins in this series.

Next up: Cards vs. Padres

There have been about 25-30 Cards fans that have left Criminology early. I have yelled "Jake Peavy" at everyone who has left.

I was going to skip, but the class I had only meets once a week.

Kevin T. · 10-03-2006, 03:28 PM

El Duque hurt?

jruck37 · 10-04-2006, 07:00 AM

The Tigers got their feet wet. Now, it's time for a win.

Tin Man · 10-04-2006, 10:41 AM

Go Tigers until they beat the Yanks - I really want the Twins to go all the way.

twinsavsvikingsfan · 10-04-2006, 03:47 PM

AUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! !!!!!

jruck37 · 10-04-2006, 07:47 PM

This rain delay sucks. I'm going to roll the dice and watch Lost live, hoping that I don't miss any of the game.

Keith- How was the Mets game today? Did you guys just go nuts when they got that crazy double play?

Keith S. · 10-06-2006, 12:46 PM

Hey all:

The Met's game was insane! LoDuca said the next day "I played the entire game with goose pimples" refering to the atmosphere at Shea that night. MY throat still hurts and my voice is stilll jacked up....

My view of the game

Beltran at the plate

David Wright preparing to step into the batter's box.

The Met's Dugout

i just got tickets to tomorrow night's game 4 in Detroit!!!! if the tig's win tonight, that place is going to be completely out of control tomorrow!!!!

twinsavsvikingsfan · 10-06-2006, 01:56 PM

There is a guy in my CIS class that will be at Game 4 at Comerica.

Man I hope the Twins offense wakes up today. That, and I hope Radke's arm doesn't come totally detatched and fly into the crowd.

An awesome season swept away.

FlyinM · 10-06-2006, 07:07 PM

Sorry, TVF. Getting drunk would be appropriate.

OldGuy · 10-08-2006, 04:46 PM

LET'S GO METS

They were awesome. Too bad there will be no subway series (hahahahahaha).

twinsavsvikingsfan · 10-08-2006, 05:07 PM

Congrats Tigers. I guess I'll become an unofficial fan. So cool the Spank-me's are out.

jruck37 · 10-09-2006, 07:14 AM

AWESOME.

Howard_Rourke · 10-09-2006, 08:30 AM

Hey Jamie, wasn't that celebration fantastic.

jruck37 · 10-09-2006, 09:01 AM

That was one of the greatest Detroit sports moments I've ever seen. The difference between the Tigers and the Yankees (besides the pitching and the Yankees gaudy All-Star accolades) is the passion and the fact that the Tigers players really care about eachother and the city.

For me, I'd rank it up there with:

1. Mickey Lolich jumping into Bill Freehan's arms in 1968. (you're too young)

2. Stevie Y holding up the cup and smiling with that tooth missing.

3. Patrick Roy getting his ass kicked twice.

4. Matt Millen getting fired. (well, it will be a great moment when it happens.)

jruck37 · 10-10-2006, 03:10 PM

Wow. You remember 1968. :p

My other favorites:

1. Vinnie Johnson wins the Finals against Portland in 1990.
2. The Pistons beat the Lakers in 2004 Finals.
3. Stevie Y holding up the cup and smiling with that tooth missing.
4. Darren McCarty vs. Claude Lemieux

VJ with that jumper was awesome.

I was on a plane when McCarty kicked Claude "the turtle" Lemieux' ass. I have watched the highlights over and over, though.

And yes, I do remember 1968. I was 5 about to turn 6. My dad and I watched the game on our b&w TV. We lived in Detroit at the time. After the game we drove around town and honked the car horn. He was all of 26 at the time. It is one of my first real memories.

Hey! That's enough of this, dammit.

jruck37 · 10-10-2006, 06:03 PM

Very cool, Mike. My brother and I drove around honking when the Wings won in 97 and 98.

mlbgo is a lifesaver for txting. Just text the name of the team to MLBGO and it'll send you back an update: inning, score, pitcher, hitter, outs, runners on. During the games when I'm not home I use that like crazy. MLB.com gamecast is amazin with the laptops in school. We were goin crazy in between innings in the rain delay yankee make up after we found out arod struck out looking with the bases juiced. I love technology.
