First with the Angles, before i get into this let it be known that I am a baseball fan not just a Red Sox fan. The Angles have always been intregeing to me because they play a different style of ball than any other AL team, maybe they belong in the NL but still I respect their play. Yes, K-Rod had a historic year but ever since breaking into The Show in 2002 the Angles have won one Playoff series. And K-Rod has pitched 12 innings with 11 strike outs, 7 earned runs, 16 hits, 3 loses, and 3 saves. Oh...and he has given up two game winning home runs, sounds like a lights out closer to me. How about their line-up, there are absolutely stacked this year, but I'm sorry, regardless of how much I respect Vlad, he isn't and won't ever be the player he once was. Quite frankly if he was that player this series and perhaps the past few years would have been different. Straight up nobody wanted to run on this guy when he was playing in the outfeild, with his speed he could track down any fly ball, and could throw a seed from the outfeild fence to home with little effort. But he's not the same player, and he is no Manny Ramirez, which is the reason why the Angels signed him to begin with. Their pitching was ridiculous this year, come on how can a team who won 100 games and had a staff that consisted of John Lackey, Ervin Santana, Jared Weaver, and Joe Sanders not walk through the play-offs and take the World Series? Thats simply really, they are intimidated and have been since they won in 2002. Sure, game one was lost because of one bad pitch and the retarded baserunning by Vlad, who has no business going from first to third on any play regardless if it was on a bitch hit by Torii Hunter. Yes, they did try to change up their approach by getting Tex but there is no team other than the White Sox who I can say they could actually beat.
Fuck the Cubs, I hate them for the sole purpose that this shit about billy goats and curses are excuses for teams that just are not ever that good. So please Cubs fans, shut up and stop bitching, if you want to bitch just look at the kind of guys you have on your roster. Other than Soriano, none of the Cubies have done shit in the Play-offs. Yes, they were the best team in the NL with the clutch hitting of Armous Ramirez, but quite frankly year in and year out if they do make the play-offs they all seem to run away like bitches. And about all this Steve Bartman shit, Moises Alou should have caught that no matter what anyone says. Sorry, but I saw this shit coming and I'm sure alot of others have to, but LA is going to either sweep or win in 4 games. This is the last time I am going to route for Manny ever again, because I want to see his bitch ass booed in Fenway when the Dodgers get shut out by the 3 Aces and our new found set up man and dominant closer. Oh, and I can't wait to see our line up continue to keep running on all cyliders. With that said, good luck next Cubies.
