Talking baseball on a basketball board!! wrote: Great game today as Barry Zito outpitches Johan Santana and the A's beat the Twins in Minnesota in game 1 of the playoffs!!! Frank Thomas is the man!!!! He hits two homers!! The BIG HURT has put the A's on his back aaaaallllll season for the A's!!! Sure wish the late A's broadcaster Bill King was still around to see this. RIP Mr. King!!! GO A'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bill king was a straight up dude; hope he's watching the biggest plasma T.V. in heaven that there is.
Hope the A's go deep in the post season this year; now that I'm moving to houston I should root for the Astros, but I don't wanna. so there.Keep on hurting, BIG HURT!!!
Yeah, the BIG HURT is in good form with Oaktown. They have a chance to go deep this year in the playoffs; I wish them all the luck in the world.
RIP Bill King.
Well, they're into round 2 for the 1st time in 14 years!!AWESOME!!!!!!!
LET'S GO OAKTOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think the Mets will get past the Dodgers, Jose`. Wouldn't it be something if both teams made it out of round 1?
& congrats to the Tigers for beating the Yankees. hopefully, they can knock the evil empire out
I have to put my two cents in here and say...IN YOUR FACE Woody Paige!! This morning on ESPN's Cold Pizza, Woody Paige said that the A's are chokers and the Twins would come back and win this series...NOT!!! Skip Bayless was pulling for the A's. I like Skip Bayless. Not only because he was going for the A's...I just think he tells it like it is. Woody is just a goofy airhead, IMO. Right on Oakland!!! Now I hope the Tigers can beat the Yanks. I hate the Yankees!!
Goofy airhead?ok...but let's take it furtherWoody is a squirrel nut zipper.
& the yankees have prooved how overated they are; hope their overpaid a$$es are drowning inwhatever they drink tonight, b/c speaking of choking?Excuse me A-rod?biggest post-season choker joker there is. even yankee fans know that;that's why they boo his overpaid a$$. like this i came across:
Now bring on the A's!let's see who's the better teamI like my Tigers chances!
The Tigers absolutely killed the Yankees in their series. Congratulations Pistons.com! Should be a great ALCS between the A's and Tigers beginning Tuesday! You are so right that A-ROD is the biggest choker in New York, maybe the biggest in NYC since Knicks' coach Larry Brown..LOL!! The Yankees fans have every right to be pissed off!! Now, I'm an A's fan and I am pulling for them to beat the Tigers but it won't be easy. Jim Leyland has done a masterful job for them in 2006. I just hope it now comes to an end in this upcoming 7 game series. By the way, wasn't it great to see the Dodgers get swept by the New York Mets in ther series last night? I loved seeing Tommy LaSorda pouting in the stands..LOL! GO A'S!

haha, I loved that 2!
Doesn't look to good for the A's tonight, hope they can get some bats & win this one!Great time for Zito to start s*cking again, dammit!
& is it me, or is Pistons.com getting greedy?Your girls win the WNBA, your Pistons were in the eastern conference finals, c'mon already!
Of course your football team really s*cks(like Raiders s*cking) so maybe there's some justice in their somewhere.
Oh & A-rod is such a ****. I hate him too, & anyone else in pinstripes.
Pacific, as a Met's fan I'd usually be hating with you on the Yankees, I've NEVER liked them, but it's sad what happened to Cory lidle today. He leaves behind a wife & a 6-year old son.
Watching the footage today brought back thoughts of 9-11.it's very sad; & I hope the A's really pull it out tonight in honor to Lidle since he once played in Oakland.
& I think Pistons.com is getting greedy 2; c'mon pistons.com,the A's haven't made it outta the first round in 14 years; aren't their fans just as deserving as Tigers fans?

GO METS!
uhmm...yeah, they are deserving(A's fans) but keep in mine HOW MUCH THE TIGERS SUCKED BEFORE LELAND CAME ABOARD. Remember the 2003 team that was a joke?The worst team in baseball?The team that lost 130 games or whatever?
Look, I'm sorry; but I think our bullpen is just stronger. If the Big hurt & Swisher stay cold like that,the Tigers will sweep, that's just the way it is.I'm not gonna crow about b/c I like you dudes, but...& you really miss your 2nd baseman, tough break, but that's the way it goes.
