MLB 2023 Season: Rangers are going hunting for Snakes

I can't stand the damned Texas teams. One associated with W., the other with the cheating history. God damn it.

If it bothers you that much, W hasn't had anything to do with the Rangers for quite awhile now. And obviously the Astros aren't cheating anymore, Dusty would never allow it. So I don't see the problem here. :shrug:

An all-Texas ALCS would be exciting, I gotta admit that.

Baseball fans of the top teams who lost in the divisional series are complaining about the bye. While the bye is the golden goose in the NFL, do you think it has a negative effect in baseball?
 
Fans of 100+ win teams that choke in the playoffs will come up with anything to excuse the actual choking.

Good riddance Dodgers. Only a shame the Twinkies couldn't get the Astros out of the way.


Mets owner Steve Cohen hopes to construct a casino adjacent to Citi Field as a way to attract people to the area near the ballpark
"There's nothing going on. The only thing you can do at Citi Field is get your hubcap changed or maybe get back a catalytic converter," he said Wednesday during the closing session of Sportico's Invest in Sports conference. "The way I would describe it is 50 acres of cement."
"The fans want something to do before the game, after the game," Cohen said.
...also during the game :rofl:

That's also where they're building the new NYCFC stadium.

The chop shops are almost all gone. There were only two left when I was in the city this summer. AND they were closed.

I thought Bush sold his stake when he was first elected governor in 1994.

It was when he stepped down as Managing GP. that he sold his share.

Phillies fans are some of the most obnoxious people to walk the earth.
That's a well known fact about all Philadelphia fans. Lest we forget,

I used to hate Phillies fans like everybody else does. But I had a really good time in Philadelphia last year and it totally flip-flopped how I feel about them. Now I love the city and I have nothing against the fans there.

'Course, I wasn't the visiting fan, so maybe that influenced my judgment a tad :lol: but the Phillies were playing the Braves, and there were a ton of Atlanta fans there (both in the ballpark, and also out and about in the city) and nobody was giving them any grief. :shrug:

Would I go there again wearing my Yankees or Mets gear? Probably. I gotta develop a thicker skin. You have to learn to let it go. You have to get over it. The lion's share of trash talk you typically hear about Philly fans is just that- trash talk. Just ignore it and it'll go away.

That said: I am STILL curious as to why the next London Series will be Mets/Phillies. Not that I'm complaining, I just assumed they'd go to Giants/Dodgers first since that rivalry is more famous...

Edit: That clip just posted, about Eagles fans throwing beer at Vikings fans? There is an explanation for that. I'm not justifying this, but it was retaliation for what a group of Vikings fans did earlier that day, hanging around the art museum and dressing up the Stallone statue in Vikings gear.

Nick Castellanos will never have to buy himself a drink in Philly ever again.

And I love those Phillies fans with the T-shirts that said IS THIS TOO LOUD FOR YOU, SPENCER? :guffaw:

While the bye is the golden goose in the NFL, do you think it has a negative effect in baseball?

No.

According to this complicated diagram, only the Astros are being projected to continue their upward trend.
