i came back to the MLB forum for the first time since the WS , and remember how much of a laugh i got at Marnypoly's expense....
after game 1 ,....the water was at Marnypoly's knees , when the Rangers ace Lee got smoked...
after game 2,...the water was up at hip level.....but he still kept the faith
after game 3 the water subsided a little...and there was a faint glimmer..
after game 4.....the water rose to neck height.... then game 5.........Marnypoly drowns .......and it wasn't even close...... Lee got smoked a 2nd time.........
i always got a kick out of his avatar,...clearly he has a good sense of humour to stick with the avatar through thick and thin ( i've never seen someone's avatar cop so many comments)
but as a baseball analyst and bettor.....your judgement was in your sigmoid colon ,.....just a little past your internal sphincter.....
your comments pre WS were a little cocky and brazen... i personally thought it was a toss up ( great pitching SF vs great offense TEX)......... but once the word LOCK got mentioned...i shoulda known that was the kiss of death.....and ALL IN was the cherry on top. .
maybe a few months of chilling will make you realise the error of your ways , and how poorly you came across in this entire thread....
even presidential candidates getting their ass handed to them have the cojones to stand up and offer a concession speech......
Marnypoly....if there were such a thing as an "MLB thread Hall of Shame"...this one gets in the first year of nomination

when your ace pitcher goes 0-2 in the WS , as a -123 road fav , and as a -172 home fav, giving up go ahead HR's in both games, what would you call that ?
don't get me wrong,....i love Cliff Lee ....even though i don't really like PHI or TEX ,...i think Cliff is a classy guy , and i love his composure... he's the first pitcher i started following blindly in his killer year in CLE when he was like 22-3 or something sick like that , in the 2008 season,
but he clearly wasn't able to shut down SF..
i would say he got smoked. if SF just played small ball , and got singles and doubles,..i wouldn't have used the word "smoked".....but giving up HR's is a crushing blow to a team barely hanging by a thread.
the onus is always on the pitcher to keep his team in the game.....

he didn't do it .............TWICE !
He made 1 bad pitch the second game and the ageless wonder made him pay. I agree that was terrible and made a bad decision. But other than that 1 at bat he pitched very solid. If the Rangers win that game 4-3. Did he still get smoked, NO. The Rangers bats were terrible and that was the difference, not Lee getting smoked the 2nd time around.

I agree, I'm laying the lumber too. Texas has excellent pitching, hitting, and speed. Their manager, Washington, is in the dugout and goes nuts when Texas is scoring runs and the excitement rubs off on his players. I like this team, lot of excitement. Good Luck San Francisco but I feel Texas is better.
i never thought i would ever see someone giving praise to a sixty-year-old cocaine addict but low and behold here it is.
washington is horrible and even worse with his break-dancing, ghetto moon-walking twitches in the dugout.
