FiddySicks Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Nelson Cruz is an absolute beast. He hammered a home run to tie the game in the 8th, and just smacked a grand slam to win it in the 11th. Texas is now up 2-0.

I would be upset if the Colts/Bucs game got more coverage. Painter throws a TD, w00t! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To borrow one of the four-letter's tired old cliches, "c'mon man!"Fact is not as many people care about playoff baseball as they do MNF and the ratings aren't even that close. Even last week's MNF game between the Bucs and Colts which most football fans could really care less about easily beat the MLB playoffs.I'm watching the Lions/Bears game myself but that's only because the Cards/Brewers game appears to be over.

Even last week's MNF game between the Bucs and Colts which most football fans could really care less about easily beat the MLB playoffs.Sad but true.I don't know if fans are really even any more interested in a sporting sense. The NFL could put two 2-7 teams against each other on MNF and it would draw simply because there's alot of people out there that watch MNF simply because they have money riding on the game. You can't really do that with baseball. It just doesen't loan itself to gambling the way the NFL does.What else could it be? You can't tell me that somehow there's that many football fans out there that will watch any game put on purely for the love of the sport. Especailly on a Monday Night when people have work the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCall Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 It's pathetic. These are some pretty exciting playoffs we've been having and yet the LCS's seem to take a backseat to week 5 of 17 in the NFL. It's week frickin' 5! Sheesh. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared41 Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 First walk-off grand slam in postseason history! What a way to end it!Technically I suppose it is the first but Robin Ventura hit a walk off grand slam in 1999. He just never bothered to finish running the bases so it went into the books as a single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a self-fulfilling prophecy of bull .Fair points all around. Add to that the constant message of "no one matters but the Yankees and Red Sox" from ESPN and FOX over the past few years and it's no wonder the ratings are where they are. It probably never occurred to them that there would be seasons where the Yankees and Red Sox might get knocked out early or not make the playoffs at all.

pmoehrin Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I was just thinking and I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this before.If the Rangers and the Brewers face off in the World Series it will be the first time we've had a guaranteed first time winner since 1980 when the Phillies beat the Royals. Before that you gotta go all the way back to 1920 when the Cleveland Indians managed by Tris Speaker beat the Brooklyn Robins (now the LA Dodgers).

pmoehrin Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Hope everyone enjoyed their reprieve from the dynamic duo for games one and two. So long Terry Francona, we hardly knew yee.Also somebody needs to tell Ken Rosenthal that bowties only look good on tuxedos. Otherwise you look like your ten.

It's not the same, but a streak was gonna end no matter what. BEAR DOWN ARIZONA!2013/14 Tanks Picks Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
