Ok this is to Talk about pro sports teams. Now the big news in America is the play offs in baseball right now. So that should be a good starting point. Yankees did great in their last game, 10-1 win at Detroit. They need one more game to advance. So yeah talk about stuff like that here. Football, baseball, soccer, tennis, golf, basketball, any pro sports

It is so big that not all the games are shown on TV.

Anyway I don't really watch baseball, but I don't like the Yankees. They are like the Cowboys of baseball.

Ok daleks I hate u right now soo much. No one dissess the Yankees, no one. I'm fairly confident that all the games r televised, well at least all the Yankee games r. Their next game is tomarrow in ny. I personally think they can win it. Thoughts?

Well if they knock off the Rangers they would be my hero for a couple of months. But it's gonna be a very close game between Detroit and NY. But because they are at home, The Bronx Beasts, crazed yank fans, are not gonna let the Tigers go that easy. The Cowboys of baseball are the Red Sox, by the way. I think Yankees are gonna run away with it, as long as the Phillies stay out of their way.

Cards are beating phillies 3-2 in the fifth and Oswalt is pitching....so much for the shutdown rotation, huh? =P If the Cards knock out the Phills, it would be one of the biggest upsets of the season. Not as big as Boston's crash-and-burn September, but still big

I respect the D'backs for coming from 100+ losses last season to knocking off the champs the next. But i also respect the Giants for knocking off the Rangers in the Series, happiest moment of my October =D

Angel's are more original than yankees <(^o^)> Even though the Yankees could probably buy the rights to every name in sports. Rich jerks...
