The World Series Recap


Yes the Yankees did it again, the only surprise is its already been 9 years. You know, I hear people out there saying NY bought their rings and the only reason they have 27 championships is because of their big payroll. Money isn't everything to a championship, just look at the leafs, one of the richest teams in the NHL and is tied for the worst record in the league (I'm sorry Dennis, I had to say it).

Like I said, the series ended in 6 and the long ball played a huge factor. 17 home runs in total. Hideki Matsui played the series of his lifetime and A-Rod actually played well in the 2nd half of the series, unfortunately... The Yankee's 3 man roster worked but they probably would have won regardless. They are now the team to beat and the Yankees finally back on top.

The Fall Classic

Its that time of the year again. The Home Run Derby!... I mean the World Series... Its almost a match up of who can hit more monsters than it is about strategy. As great as the line ups are with their power you can't over look the incredible arms of CC Sabathia and Cliff Lee. How much better can this be with 2 of the best left-handers in the game. As heart warming as a Cinderella story is, its nice to see the 2 best teams make it in the World Series for once.

If I had the time I would write a long blog of how I think the series will go but since I don't I'm just going to say the Yankees in 6. The Phillies may be able to step up their hitting or they might be able to match the pitching but doing both is going to be a miracle. I'm a big fan of Cliff Lee so I hope he wins tonight.

"I Spit in the face of people who don't want to be cool"

I'm sorry for using this title but I couldn't resist saying Carlitio's annoying line. Probably the dumbest line ever created in the WWE.

This whole story about Rivera being a cheater because there were images of him "spitting" on the ball is ridiculous. He is perhaps the best closer to ever play the game. Everybody knows hes going to throw his cut fastball but yet they can barely get their barrel on the ball. In the images you can't see anything hitting the ball even if it was obvious he spit out of his mouth. As much as I hate the Yankees, Rivera isn't a cheat so no one should hate on him. We should all concentrate out anger at A-Rod just cause hes an dick player and probably a bigger asshole in person. So I would just like to say, to think Rivera has been doing this for 15 years is just plain senseless!
