The great and mighty Yankees will return to the post season for the 47th time in their history and for the 13th time in a row.
You'd think that TV crews would know not to have mic's around athletes who aren't being interviewed. It never works out. Doug Mientkiewicz says about being sprayed with champagne: "God that's fucking cold!".

Shouldn't you be more concerned with the day the Reds do make the playoffs? Also, it isn't the Yankees fault that the Reds suck hard, so save the hate.

1) The Reds have made the playoffs. Granted, it's been about 11 years (I think they made it to the NLCS in 1996 against the Braves? I went to the game, but I can't remember the year).
2) I'm not hating because the Reds suck. I'm hating because I hate the Yankees. I don't even watch baseball anymore. I only keep up with it via Sports Center because I can't really avoid it watching that and even then, I don't pay much attention.

Well then what's the point of hating a team if you don't care about the sport?

I've hated them since I was following baseball.
The only reason it peaks my interest NOW (although very minimal) is because the Indians are in the playoffs and my dad is a big Indians fan.

The still doesn't make the most sense in the world.
If the Reds were good, would you follow the sport again? Then I could sort of understand hating the Yankees, but even then I still think it's a little strange for NL fans to be concerned with what the Yankees are doing.

I suppose it stems from my dad hating the Yankees so much. it just sort of rubbed off on me when I was younger. He still follows it from time to time.
Honestly though, I would somewhat follow baseball again if the Reds had a decent pitching staff and weren't bottom of the barrel year after year. Even then, I still wouldn't follow it NEARLY as much as football.
So I guess your assumption is correct. The strike hurt my interest in baseball. I was still interested, but not as much as I was before then.
Honestly, I'm more of an Indians fan if and when I do follow it. Thank my dad for this.

Ah, ok. I understand that.
So it should be Indians-Yanks in round 1. You should get ready to do some serious hatin'.

Yeah, I'll probably watch it since the Indians are in it.
When is Game 1 of that series?

Nah, Packers time to shine
Go Pack go!
Being a Michigander and supporting the Packers makes my family look at me with weird sideways glances.
They can shine all they want in the NFC. But it's time for the Chargers to get back to form in the AFC and start ripping it up! I hope they televise this weeks game here. Probably not, cuz we play the KC Chiefs.

Hello there
It wasn't official until the 26th. But ultimately it won't matter much. The Bears are going to be lucky to make 8-8 this year.

If the Chargers don't beat the Chiefs, consider the season lost, and Norv Turner fired.

i agree, but still i dont know, griese may give stability to the bears offense, and thats really what they need.

Lions didn't do shit even with Kitna being one of the top passers last year. I'd go ahead and say they won't do shit even with him passing like he is now.

they are 2-1. i dont think they are superbowl contenders, but a wild card isnt a stretch in the weaker confrence.
