GoppyMa is caught up in the drama of 5 for 1 battle in the AL wildcard .... Jeter will be missed and ChiSox are providing the target practice for all teams. Can we get a 3 or 4 way tie? A 5-way tie for 1 spot is too much to ask for.

They cannot replicate the drama of the 2011 final day. The baseball bureaucrats are trying too hard.

There’s no drama here, Mauro.

Like I said before, it’s either DET or BOS for the AL; ATL or LAD or STL for the NL. The rest are rounding out the card.

Mauro, the robots are coming for you...

What a sh*tty game. Pawts win, but the Jets cover.

Pawts ain’t going anywhere this year. Jets aren’t either - pack of thugs.

TB pulled one out over the Red Sox; they were celebrating like they won something. TB - low class group.

TB needs to celebrate staying ahead of the NYY.

can the Sox keep the #1 seed? Why are the ChiSox so bad?
The AL wildcard race is a classic. Sox don’t play much baseball between the 22st and Oct 3. 11 days ... 5 games get stale.

how do ya line up your starters wid so many days off?

Mark Reynolds and your boy Alfonso are helping the NYY, Mauro.

“What a sh*tty game. Pawts win, but the Jets cover.”

Week 2 is off to good start for me cause that’s what I predicted. I thought the Jets had no chance to actually win but that spread looked too high. Turns out the Jets would have won if Rex Ryan had worn his wife’s panties for luck.

Even though it’s not mathematically possible both the Pats and Jets deserve to be 0-2. Brady’s receiving core sucks. AFC East may be the worst division in football. It’s them or the AFC North.

The week 2 thread is up

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3066031/posts

The subject line mistakenly says week 1.

” Why are the ChiSox so bad?”

No offense and piss poor defense.

What caused that? I’d say no chemistry on the team and a manager in over his head. The failure of Ventura makes me think it’s a good thing the Cubs didn’t hire Sandberg. I think Konerko is gone and Ventura is fired.

It’s hard to believe there are 2 teams even worse than Pale Hose.

LOL. Hmm, I’ve never seen young Alan Arkin in anything.

Saints D isn’t great but I don’t expect TB to do much scoring which will lead to Doctor Emmitt Brown, I mean Rob Ryan, dancing a jig.

So unless Sir Darrelle of Revis can stop Brees all by himself I like NOLA to win by more than that.

Josh Freeman looks like a bust, he started out okay.

Former State Senator and 2010 nominee Dan Debicella and State Rep. John Shaben both file to run against Chris Himes.

First off, settle down Mauro, the Yankees lost.

I have the title of an Alan Arkin biography selected: “Alan Arkin and his irma.”. I just watched Cat-22 about two weeks ago - what a GREAT film!!! It’s a “must watch”.

Rob Ryan is a barely housebroken chimp. He should be on a corner with a tin cup dancing for coins. Aints suck. (Positive for) TB sucks. Freeman was stripped of being a team captain for this season. He’s just another wannabe badass with mediocre talent.

Darrelle Revis is a soon to be relic: Watch for defense in the NFL to basically cease in the next 2-4 years.

“dfa de la torre to make room for Buchholz comin off the 60-day.”

They should have DL’d De la torre; he wasn’t so bad that they just had to give him away. Ok, MIL isn’t a threat for anything, but still, an arm is an arm.

OTOH, pretty much everything BOS is touching this year is turning to gold, so second guessing is truly irrelevant.

Shaban R-135 is in his 2nd term. Never paid attention to him cuz he’s in a GOP district which aint too interesting.

I dont see what a primary would be all about.
