CC97 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Rockies are going to win game one, 12-1... Don't start calling me a homer, that's not why I'm saying this, it's a WHOLE different reason, but you'll see, believe me.I'm curious as to what the reason was --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
See Red Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I have an even better question. Who in the hell is he? I know I am old and I don't watch much TV other than sports but honestly I had never heard of him until he ruined MLB's promos. My girlfriend tells me he's a stand-up comic or something?Wiki says he's a stand-up comic, but most people know better. He's supposedly from Boston, but I don't think Boston claims him.I'd take Mike O'Malley over Cook any day.... and that's saying something considering O'Malley's sitcom failed miserably....... oh and I had no idea who Dane Cook was until the thread about favourite comedians."Yes, Dear" lasted 3 or so seasons. Not exactly a failure.Remember ESPN's "The Rick"? That was O'Malley.Oh, I was referring to the "Mike O'Malley Show" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0210433/I've never even heard of that... I guess that alone suggests how poorly it did. He was good on Yes, Dear, which actually lasted six years despite CBS not promoting it and treating the show like crap, overall -- I still don't understand why CBS treated the show the way they did considering it got good ratings and was a funny show.I'm also curious as to what your "WHOLE different reason" was, Nick.This series is going to come down to the Rockies bullpen. The Red Sox grind pitchers and the Rockies should expect their starters to last about five to six innings at the very most. And actually, Ubaldo Jimenez, tonight's starter, tends to struggle to get into the sixth inning anyways. He also has a tendency to be wild at times, and depends on hitters chasing balls out of the strikezone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swiss Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 If the Red Sox will have another slugfest tonight, I don't want to know how will they hit in Coors Field... Being realistic, I think tonight the Rockies will play better than last night and be a tough rival for the Red Sox. Why? Because they were rusty after 9 days without any real game, maybe they got some rhythm now so they can reach the pace of the Red Sox.

winghaz Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 OK, Game 1 sucked. But this is still an intriguing matchup just because of all the things about the two teams and two communities.It's East Coast vs. Rocky Mountains.Old-fashioned uniforms vs. newfangled uniforms.Old, classic ballpark vs. new, classic ballpark.Franchise that goes back to the early days of baseball vs. a relatively new franchise.Sea level vs. mile high.Blue state vs. red state (I think).Easterners vs. Westerners.Samuel Adams vs. Coors.Classic colors of navy, red and white vs. unique colors of purple, black and silver.Beans vs. steak.Oysters vs. Rocky Mountain oysters.Etc., etc., etc. I'm sure you all can think of more items.

infrared41 Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Boston just keeps coming at you. You know that sooner or later Manny or Pappy are going to hurt you. The problem is if you can manage to get around those two (which hasn't happened for anyone yet) you still have Lowell, Pedroia, Youkilis, etc. to contend with. When that lineup is on you better score 10+ and hang on for dear life. This game won't stay close for long. The Rockies are in way over their heads. The Red Sox are just a ton better. No two ways about it. Start sizing up that new ring Sox fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanB06 Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Let the Sox use up all their hitting tonight, I have no objections to it, because the Rockies WILL WIN four straight after tonight... and you can take that to the bank.You're 0-for-2, Nick. You might want to quit while you're behind.

slapshot Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 What happened with Lugo? He bunted but the ump called him out.I didn't watch very well this situation.He bunted, but the ball was over fair territory when it bounced back and hit him. Any batter who contacts a fair ball is automatically out, even if both his feet were still in the batter's box at the time.Diaz (home plate umpire) made the correct call, that's why the discussion with Francona was quick.
