Sports Thread

madcowdisease · 07-19-2006, 12:11 AM

I figured we needed one of these. Especially when the market gets this ugly what else is there but the triviality of sports to entertain us. If there is a barrage of responses to this thread perhaps it will necessitate the creation of sport specific threads (e.g baseball, football, or MLB, NFL, etc) but for now lets all lump them in this one.

So who follows what? Anyone excited for the post season in the MLB or the start of traingin camp in the NFL?

Personally my teams on the professional level are the Reds and Bengals. The Reds recently made some trades, though controversial, that hopefully will help them sure up the wild card or even better overtake the Cards in the NL Central.

And what can I say about the Bengalis? After a decade of disgrace they are a contender this yr. after winning the division last yr. Too bad my poor ass can't afford decent tickets. Damn seat licenses and ticket brokers!

So what'cha go?

Yankees,Giants, Rangers. Got a chance to see the Yanks at philly this year which is cool, phillies new park is real nice and I wouldn't go otherwise. It's a bit dangerous being a New York fan in philly, but with the Yanks theres no big rivalry and it was fun. We had different seats for each game so got to see the park. Great win by the Yanks today as well.
