Title: OAKLAND ATHLETICS ON FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Acgrundy on August 02, 2005, 09:53:56 PM
baseball fans, can you believe these guys?  tearin this shit up.  every single thing about them has been solid for the last 2 months.  leading the AL wildcard by 3 games, and 1/2 game out of first place.  This is the team, that, at the end of May, was like 13 games out of the Wildcard and 15 games out of first place.  They are over .700 since the all star break.  They just gave Johan Santana his first loss after the allstar break in over 2 years.


And to top it all off:  I think they are the 5th lowest payroll in MLB.  Damn I hope they keep it up!

haha, that was a funny joke, but seriously, maybe your A's will get that wildcard spot and play the AL west champions angels in the playoffs this year, wouldnt that be great

At the beggining of the season i was saying the As would be the AL West division champs and people laughed.   People really have underestimated that young rotation.  Their offense was on a huge collective slump and now they are scoring runs.

a funny joke?  whats funny about it?  Like I said, we are 1/2 game behind.  My bet:  Angels don't make the playoffs, yankees get the wildcard.  Boston takes the east, Chicago takes central, and Oakland takes the west.

Loser of the bet deletes their account on wcc.  and the only way you can come back is under the name:

for me:  you can pick whatever you want.

Can't change your name ever.

Post by: ecrazy on August 02, 2005, 11:21:40 PM
ok, lemme get the specs right

WINNER OF THE DIVISION WINS THE BET CORRECT?
What if one team makes the playoffs and one team completly falls off?
then the person with the team that makes the playoffs should win the bet
person with the better team wins the bet

**I know its all plain and simple, but im just writing it out so there is no confusion or any stipulation later on**

if angels get first place, u win the bet, I lose.  If A's get first place I win the bet you lose.  If for some ungodly reason, neither team gets first place, we both lose the bet and have to take our own lives.

good, hopefully they can overtake the very homosexual Angels, Los Angeles my ass.....

don't start with me E-Crazy, I'm not gonna reply to some wack comeback about Angels/Dodgers

cuz everyone knows that the Angels are named Los Angeles of Anaheim which doesn't even make any fuckin sense

last time I checked, Anaheim wasn't in L.A. County, so it is geographically wrong and gay of the owner to pull a petty move like that

so lame......

They'll probably get the Wild Card, then go up 2-0 against Boston (or whomever) then choke away the series & lose the next 3 games like they always do everytime they get into the playoffs in the Billy Beane era

what is your goddamn fascination with me you fuckin groupie?  get off my nuts.  you are ruining a great thread about a great baseball team with your fuckin comments.  If I wanted to talk with you I'd visit a gay chatroom.  but you don't see me in there do you? No, because I don't want to talk to you.
