Slyder? What you say?

[Slyder]

I will buy they make the playoffs, but I got to sale they making it past the first round. If the season ended today theyd be playing Bahston and last time I checked they arent playing great ball but its better than what Anaheim has been playing. Boston shoudl beat the LA Angels of Anaheim in the state of California.

I'll buy them winning the division, but i'm selling them making it past that. Boston leads their series 6-4 against the LAANAUNIVERSE. not to mention ortiz is red HOT, manny is manny, and the whole bosox team is just owning it up.

Point is, all LAALALALALA is going to do is just get trampled against boston. better pitching, better offense, better overall.

Not to mention boston is a pretty well home team.

Next Topic.

ESPN and baseball agree to eight-year deal worth nearly $2.4 billion? Buy or Sell this being a good thing having to deal with Joe Morgan for another 8 years? ATH to Mr Slyder Aurilla.

[Slyder]

Its always good to see big tv contracts. Im going to buy this because its better than some of the alternatives, and you can always mute the announcers and just listen to your local feed for the games.

Its a great method, I do it for WVU games and anytime the Reds play the Braves or the Cubs (post Harry Carry and Steve Stone) they are two of the biggest homer announcing teams I have ever heard.

Buy. This is most people's outlet to baseball on Wednesday, Monday and Sunday nights. Most of them don't have XM, Extra Innings or MLB TV, so they look on ESPN for baseball games. They could use some work with their announcers, sure, but if it's the only non-local baseball on TV, it's going to be watched.

[Porter]

++++ short and to the point

Ghetto?

[ghettochild]

Joe Morgan was a great baseball player...thats about it.

I love watching baseball, especially EPSN. I love the idea of having monday night games, and ANYTHING then watching GRANDE on ohio's FSN.

ITS DUNN AND GONE!

Next Topic and Final of the Buy or Sell.

The Mets blew another lead today losing 6-5 to the Nationals. Buy or Sell either of these teams having a chance to make the playoffs? ATH to Ghetto.

[ghettochild]

Sell. Mets are 12 out of first, 7 out of the WC. Nats are 7.5 out of first and 2.5 out of the WC. Nats are next to last in any and probably every offensive catagorey, and Guillen is getting into his late-season angst.

Wilton?

[Witlon]

I'll sell on the Mets, 7 games is way too much, especially with 6 teams in front of you. They made a nice run though. I'll buy the Nationals still having a chance, we've written them off numorous times this season, and they're still only 2.5 out. They have the best young closer in the game, anotherwise solid staff and I really can't see Philly and Florida staying hot the rest of the season. If the Nats get hot again, then they can surely win this wildcard.

[Porter]

++++, although i think Street is better.
