Cliff Lee (12-9, 3.18) vs. David Price (19-6, 2.72).
COMMENTS: The bad news is, of course, the Dodgers aren't in the playoffs for the first time since 2007. The good news, however, is we've got baseball playoffs, and even if the Dodgers aren't in it, we can certainly root...for mid-day distractions. Exhibit 1 is this morning's Rangers-Rays game, to kick the whole 2010 MLB Playoffs off (get ready for some GT Scooby Doo-ing today).
Lee, almost a Dodger addition mid-season (scratch that--we really, really wanted Octavio Dotel instead), will pitch against an empty Tropicana field backdrop--a fact I'm sure Price will vociferously lament to both fans in attendance.

Too early for bad puns. Hell, too early for puns, period.
Go Rangers!
It's hard to think about a baseball game when your still drinking the morning coffee. I'm with RB my fellow Texas connection - GO RANGERS!
(although Joe Maddon is a really nice guy)
GO EITHER TEAM!
I proudly support the Notyankees on the AL side. Take from that what you will.
Did somebody say "bad puns"?!?!
Bwah ha ha ha ha
Isn't that an oxymoron?
GO FUCK YOURSELVES GNATS!
Y que te laves,Mamones
Just getting warmed up for tomorrow Peeps. It's never too early for surliness.
go Strangers!
Did you just make Scooby Doo into a verb?
Scooby-Doo'd!
Scooby Doo can Doo-Doo. But Jimmy Carter is smarter.
It's 12:46 pm here and I was running errands with my mom all morning long because I didn't have any glasses/contact lenses (long story).Point is, I talked about the MLB post-season with 5 random strangers in different places.
I have a baseball problem :(
I'm flipping a quarter to see who I am going to hate for this series.
Heads-Rangers
Tails-Rays
Looks like we have another mystery on our hands.
Feel the hate, Spanky, feel the hate!
HATE YOU RANGERS.HATE YOU!
Andrus SS
Young 3B
Hamilton CF
Guerrero DH
Cruz LF
Kinsler 2B
Francoeur RF
Cantu 1B
Molina C
Lee P
Your hate will make you powerful.
Let the hate flow through you.
The Hate is strong with this one.
Got 2 days of HATE ready to explode.
We're talking Def-con motherfucking 1,Peeps.
Both pitchers are not on their game.
Cliff Lee got out of that unscathed?
Francoeur? Go figure.
I believe the Rangers can win this.
this is a little disappointing.
DAVID PRICE CAN'T HANDLE PITCHING IN OCTOBER DAVID PRICE IS NOT CLUTCH
DAVID PRICE IS NOT AN ACE. TAMPA BAY WILL NOT WIN THE WORLD SERIES WITHOUT AN ACE.
So how many game winning home runs will Jeter hit tonight? Five? I'm going with five.
Derek Jeter can get a case of the syphilis.
why didnt we trade kemp for cliff lee?
A-Rod and Jeter are asswipe's!
that is some high-quality grabassery there, MB!
or is it assgrabbery?
either way, an ass is being grabbed
Dilemma, should I keep the assgrab or naked martini avatar? What's a girl to do?
Can I use MB's extraneous apostrophe and place it in Nic's comment where he left out an apostrophe in "didnt"? I'd feel so much better about it all if I could.
@Mr C
Do syphilis cases come in 12 or 24 count?
I forgot the game was on!
@MB
Despite my love of both booze and naked women, the assgrabbery is topical, and thus encouraged.
@Dusty
For Jeter, definitely the 24-pack.
I want the Rangers to win but I can't in good conscience root for Bengie.
Dusty, will this make you feel better?
^asswipes
Regardless of how you spell it the fact is that those two still remain the same.
nothing says party like correcting grammar on the internet
Import Jeter a case from Venezuela. They come in 36-pack
Rangers' radio broadcast has some of the same intro/outro music as the Dodgers' broadcast.
@Spanky
On behalf of Karina I am going to reach through the web and smack you upside the head.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
wait, Randy Moss is a Viking now/again?
that might hurt my fantasy QB a little.
but it should make percy harvin a little better so i will call it a wash.
I don't remember the Rangers getting Jorge Cantu.
Woo Bengie.
(UNCLEAN! UNCLEAN!)
4-0 already...wow.
How 'bout this Westlake/Mid-Wilshire weather, Josh? Looks like friggin' armageddon out of my window.
there are going to be dozens of disappointed TB fans.
@ MB
Watch out because I just added some jheri curl solution to my hair and it's nice and juicy.
Moss got the slip this morning.
@Dusty: Yeah, the tops of the skycrapers are getting eaten by the sky.
^skyscrapers
Did Moss also get the salami?
Cotto?
WHAT ARE THESE SKYCRAPPERS YOU SPEAK OF?!
is moss playing this week?
he gets screwed out of a bye week.
This enormous sky will devour us all!
So I have tabs in my browser open to this thread and the other GT. I wonder if I could conflicting edit myself?
cc: Karina (<--oh, snap! #AssassinsCircle)
This Postseason.TV dealie on the iPhone is pretty sweet. Particularly "Quad Mode."
Damn,looks like my fantasy football luck is seeping into my playoff picks. Makes me wonder if I should change guards.
Hell No!
HATE YOU GIANTS
HATE YOU PHILLIES
HATE YOU YANKEES
I HATE EVERY TEAM
I need a sedative fast.
UNITED AIRLINES HAS FILLED THE SKIES WITH SKYCRAPERS.
Damn, work is the curse of the baseball class.
5-0 Texas?
This is not going to get the crowds out to the Trop, not one bit.
Cue the Happy Madison clip now...
(I'm on my iPhone so I'd gladly appreciate a YouTube link from some fine commenter...)
Looks like the Rangers have things under control.
Happy Madison?
I'm still trying to catch up from recent GTs. Am I to believe that our own Paul has spawned? What is the story here?
id rather see the ashley madison clip.
What would a Happy Gilmore crossed with Billy Madison be like?
This game is not over yet?
Move it along,Mutts.
Can we combine the Waterboy with that equation just for the fuck of it?
Moss is a Viking? Woohoo! Favre has some value.
Oh, nope, wait, that's just his arthritis acting up.
KILL THIS THREAD!
DIE DIE DIE
Neftalithan Broxtiz.
It's gotta be killing Angel fans to watch Darren Oliver and Vlad in the playoffs.
THAT'S THE SAME DARREN OLIVER?!?!
Hey, he didn't blow it. I'd kill to see Brox get a flyout and two strikeouts after walking the first two batters.
*signs off this thread*
Whoops, that should have been Happy Gilmore.
This one.
