Nice 1,2,3.  Lights out at home.  Good lineup. 
Axford, KRod, Hawkins, Saito.  Good bullpen.


Will probably play Braves in 1st round.  Will have home field advantage in that series.  Good value IMO. 


you were 75 seconds late on your post of the brewers

part of the reason I like them is my futures bet I placed on them at the beginning of the season at 40-1

Amen. I don't get mad at them though. It's misplaced anger. Something is wrong in their life and they take it out online. Oh well.

See, scsiegel . . . at 40:1, I would be all over them.

I have Giants at 15:1, but I think they were offered at a better price than that. I placed it assuming they could make the NLCS, and then I could hedge from there on out to guarantee a profit. We'll see.

Wrong. You made a condescending comment about my bankroll that you no NOTHING about.

Am I not entitled to respond.....in a thread that you don't get deleted?

LOL! I read your message, saw your avatar, and read your location.

Do you think the ChiSox will make the playoffs? That division is up in the air.

Is Cena/Punk really that great of a main event? The spent 2 hours on RAW talking about how it was. It was nauseating.

I watched Hulk Hogan VS The Rock from a WrestleMania last night and that has been the best match I've seen so far. I don't like watching the murky looking 1990's stuff. The video shooting takes away from watching the match.

I can't imagine Cena/Punk being at that level. The Triple H twist didn't do much for me, either.


It will be a great Main Event for Summerslam.  You need to understand though that Rock vs Hogan is something we will likely never see again in terms of electricity in the building. 

My favorite matches ever are...

Hogan vs Warrior from WM 6
Shawn Michaels vs Razor Ramon from WM 10 (I was there)
TLC Match from WM 17
Bret Hart vs British Bulldog from Summerslam 1992
Bret vs Owen from WM 10 (I was there)
Bret Hart vs Austin from WM 13
Shawn Michaels vs Kurt Angle from WM 21
Bret vs Mr. Perfect from Summerslam 1991

I'm sure I'm missing a few, but those are the ones I can think of right now.  Hogan vs Warrior will probably always be my favorite because I was such a huge Warrior fan.  I don't think there's ever been a bigger "pop" when British Bulldog beat Bret Hart in Wembley Stadium in front of like 80,000 fans.

Papa,

My brother was at Stone Cold VS The Rock in Seattle, Washington. The Rock won the fight and my brother was a big fan of his.

He went to a "meet and greet" type thing (I think they had one everyday and you could buy tickets to the session) and met Hulk Hogan, Torrie Wilson, Ric Flair, Ivory, and Jacquie. He also met The Rock's stunt double (his cousin).

The next day had Stone Cold and The Rock, but it was completely random who you got to meet.

I couldn't help myself.  Andre the Giant v Hulk.  Hulk body slammed the Giant. Come on man. Really?!?

Hope you're wrong about SF Giants! I always lay a few futures picks down midway through the season. Hit the Mavs as well as the Packers in the past year.

Pretty damn cool.  Recently I met The Big Show, R-Truth, Bret Hart, CM Punk, and Kane backstage at MSG.  It was fucking awesome.  Took pictures with all of them.  Bret is my favorite ever, so that was a thrill.  I met Bret and Punk within 5 minutes of each other.  Surreal for me as a life long fan of wrestling.

Bret is the pink and black one, right? That was my brother's favorite wrestler, too. I only remember because I was a brat and constantly gave him crap for liking someone that wore pink.

whevans, 20:1 odds on the Braves is awesome!

Does anyone else have early Futures bets?

So far I've seen 40:1 on the Brewers, and 20:1 on the Braves.

I have Giants at 15:1.

It's a bold pick. I hope the playoffs are as exciting as your WS pick would indicate.
