MLB playoffs

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

I didn't think the ass was that serious, butt thanks.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

No luck on CG being shown the door Blob.

The New York Yankees have exercised their $15 million contract options for second baseman Robinson Cano and outfielder Curtis Granderson for next season.

Cano hit .313 with 33 home runs and 94 RBIs this season and Granderson hit 43 homers and drove in 106 runs, but with a .232 average. The Yankees were swept in the ALCS by the Detroit Tigers, who went on to lose the World Series to San Francisco.

Both players had dreadful postseasons. In the playoffs, Cano hit .075 (3 for 40) with no home runs, including a 29 at-bat hitless streak. Granderson was 3 for 30 with 16 strikeouts.
Hmmm.... obviously Swisher is done, probably Kuroda( like to have him back but he will demand huge cake) , likely Soriano is out with Rivera coming back. That saves them around 30 mill. I could see them trying to find a dance partner for A -Roid but they'll either have to eat a big chunk of his ticket or take another contract back..... Carl Crawford maybe ??

Cashman can't stand still. The team needs to get guys who actually want to be Yankees and have some fucking pride. Where is the new Tino, Brosius, Bernie Williams, Posada, O'Neil etc ?? Guys who had power but would engage in 10 pitch ABs. Too many free swingers with this group.

Damn you Doc, right again, if by serious you mean large.

Twas an exciting game 7. Not well played or well managed but great drama nonetheless.

Cubbies look good for the future. For that matter so does the Tribe.
