A playoff update


Its been quite a weekend of boring games and 2-0 series. Thankfully Dave Bush pushed the series in Milwaukee to at least 4 games (game 4 is 1 pm today). I am really hoping that Jeff Suppan can find a way to send the series back to Philly. I think all baseball fans need to see CC in a game 5 against Cole Hamels. It would be an amazing game and I think baseball fans deserve at least 1 really good game in the first round.

- The Cubs are going to have to wait at least 101 years before breaking the black cat- billy goat - Bartman - woe is me curse. I have never seen a team look so amazing in the regular season and look so bad in the post season. Everyone on that team was trying to hit the 8-run homer, and they never got anything going .

- With 4 pretty lousey (so far anyways) LDS - I think there are two really good LCS lining up. Red Sox vs Rays - should be a long drawn out series with plenty of bean ball wars, walk-off wins, and fist pumping. And I really think Philly vs LA could be a great series. Both teams can pitch and hit. Both teams have a fairly solid bullpen.

- So keep hope alive baseball fans. Even if 3/4 series end in a sweep - the next round is looking up.
