I'm subbing for 'charmer today and tomorrow, as she is otherwise engaged. The format will remain more or less the same, though I have changed the times we show for the games from Eastern to Arizona, just as a statement that not everything revolves around the East coast, dammit - much though a certain sports programming network might wish it to be otherwise. As we head into the weekend, there are just the two games today, which will likely do wonders for my productivity at work. But that'll just allow me additional time to taunt the office Cubs fan.

The Rays will endeavor to keep their 100% franchise post-season record - ok, that'd be played one, won one - going at Not From Concentrate Stadium this afternoon. I must confess to leaning towards wanting the Sox to win this series: partly because it would increase the agony of the Cubs nation, and partly because I like being the youngest franchise to have had any post-season success. This is the same reasoning that makes me cheer against the Suns, Coyotes, etc. when they reach the playoffs: the D-backs are unique, and I'd rather keep it that way. Call me a selfish old curmudgeon if you want. Still, if Tampa's #1 draft pick keeps playing like he did in Game One, he will soon no longer be the second-most famous Longoria whose name starts with "Eva".

No such qualms here, as I want the Angels, under almost D-backs owner Arte Moreno, to end the reign of the Yankees Lite ["Now with all the arrogance and salary bill you've come to hate, but just one-tenth the actual success!"]. Boston taking the first game was therefore unwelcome, and the Angels need to make sure they don't fall into a 2-0 hole, which is almost always terminal in a five-game series like the ALCS. Matsuzaka proved quite the stud during the regular season - and my fantasy team thanks him for that - so Santana will have his work cut out to keep up. The Angles offense also needs to show up; they were almost absent in the opener, in a way that likely felt very familiar to Arizona fans.

Exactly
I may not be sure if I want to cheer for them or the Dodgers in this round of the playoffs, but it’s really just a battle for who’s my sixth favorite team in the playoffs and which is my seventh.

I don't think it's the Cubs
as much as it is the boozy idiot in a Cubs hat who sits next to me whenever I go to a D-Backs/Cubs game at Chase Field. Dude, stop tossing peanut shells on my shoes and making clumsy passes at the young lady next to you. Watch the game.

Everyone who does improv thinks they're funnier than they are
I say that as someone who did improv. It’s so much more fun to do than to watch.

Agreed.
It’s odd. I used to (and still do, really) love enjoy watching Whose Line for what it was on the surface level. Nowadays I seem to get the biggest laughs when one of the performers can’t hold it together during a scene (primary example here).

I learned the Questions game from my older sister who read it in “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.” I was probably the only 4th grader at my school who know that, though.

The problem with the White Sox
is they rely to much on the home run. It’s not that they have guys who can’t get on base, but when they do everyone drops anchor or is too slow to take any extra base. They need to look into getting a little bit of speed in their lineup.
Damn you Harold Reynolds for making the same point as me!

Well
origin starts with one of my favorite restaurants, Chicago Sliders Co. They offer up free sliders if any Chicago team wins a championship. So midway through 2005 I think, the Diamondbacks aren’t really great this year and damn if I don’t love free sliders, I’m going to check them out to see if it’s even possible for them to win.
I found White Sox Interactive and started reading, really liked the community and have read it ever since. So if it ever came down to a Diamondbacks/White Sox series, there wouldn’t be much conflict, but I know enough about the team at this point that I feel a little something for them.

They are 10-8 against the Sox
and 6-3 against the Angels… but, yeah, I thought the Angels would have an edge here too…

If the Red Sox
start building on momentum, it’ll be hard for Tampa to stop that. One thing they will have in that scenario, though, is home field advantage. Either way it’ll be a good series.

But Tampa's going to have momentum too
Especially if they sweep the Sox. Imagine the high they’ll be on, and the rest they’ll have.

They'll have
about the same rest if both sweep. It’s a tricky thing, though. You’d think we’d have had momentum last year after sweeping the Cubs but no such luck.

Yeah, that's true
and sometimes the rest can slow the momentum. But, you have to admit, the Rockies had a lot more momentum than we did!

4-1, two outs
Angels hitting back a bit. This game is far from over.

I thought
Chip Caray was dead, then looked it up and realized it was Skip Caray, his father, that passed away earlier this year.

Taco Bell
Rarely is there a bigger gulf between how the food looks in the adverts, and what is actually served at the restaurants.

It's all
The same. Which would make things look good for both KFC and Long John Silver’s, I imagine.

I almost feel torn
with the Angels/Red Sox series.
And only because I’m watching it with my friend who grew up in Boston, and is naturally a Red Sux fan…and my dad is from Anaheim, and that’s the team he grew up with. So I’m sitting this one out.

What happened to everybody??
Anyway, the Other Drew hit a tie breaking HR in the 9th, Sox beat the Angels 7-5, run their postseason streak to 11-0… new ML record for mastery of one team.

11?
I thought this made their streak 9 now.
I don’t know why I have such an innate dislike for closers.

Nope... Wednesday night's win was 10-0
It night be 9 games in a row (7 WS/ALCS, 2 now), but this is 11-0 just over the Angels going back however many years.
And, K-Rod is easy to disdain! Oh how I love seeing replays of the sulk-off…

Was watching the games on TV
It’s in a different room than the computer.
And wow. That’s gotta be frustrating to the Angels.
