Talking Mets home to Red Sox in an 80s Playoff game
Apparently this is a famous game or something.

And I know some of you are BoSox fans (not sure who though). I do not know if there are any Mets fans here.

Anyways: here ya go.

That's just amazing! I can only guess that the creator is a very knowledgable computer programmer and was able to open the code of the Nintendo game and program in the sequence. I would love to know exactly how he did it.

It seems, when on the subject of the fan voting results for all-stars and how Tiger players are getting recognized, Jim Leyland offered:

"Well, to be honest with you I just think that it is all kind of (ticking) me off if you want to know the truth," Leyland said. "Everyone is going to find out that I'm not such a good manager. I have eight All-Stars on my team." - detnews.com

As a Ranger fan, I rarely look at the standings past mid April. Who are some of the division leaders?

Jeez, DJ, your M's are killing me! Dice-K pitches outstanding ball for 8 innings and the offense can't score any runs. 3 game sweep. UGH! Manny and Papi combined to go 0-fer-10. Ouch. Veritek threw in an 0-fer-4 for good measure.

Some? Here's all of them:

AL East: Red Sox by 9 games over Toronto
AL Central: Detroit by a half game over Cleveland
AL West: LA Angels of Anaheim by 5 over Seattle

NL East: Mets by 3.5 over Philly and Atlanta
NL Central: Milwaukee by 7.5 over the Cubbies
NL West: San Diego and Arizona are tied, a half game in front of the Dodgers.

Aggie, your Rangers are 16 games out. But as I noted in last year's thread, the last two teams to have fired Buck Showalter have won the World Series the very next year (Yankees did it with Torre, Diamondbacks did it with Bochy as manager). So take heart, your Rangers will upset my Red Sox in the ALCS and win the World Series.

Rangers are certainly having their way with Detroit.

Especially last night - Detroit didn't even bother to take the field from what I understand.

Don't feel bad. Two different leagues are having their way with the Yankees.
