All the fun starts at 2:30 with TBS On Deck! Then every single game is on TBS! Yay!
TBS: Very funny!
SB Nation is doing a great job with this year's MLB postseason. Head over to the playoffs hub site that's just gone live today to keep track of all the team blogs. There will be a permanent link in our right sidebar with a nifty widget, too, which I'm sure you've noticed.

Phils up 3-0
thanks in part to an error and a bases loaded walk. Nice job, there Brew Crew.

not the most compelling opening matchup, I'll say that
Hamels looks good.

GO Phillies!
Go Hamels!
Who would’ve thought that Yovani Gallardo would be pitching day 1 of a division playoff series this year.

Because fuck Philadelphia. The Eagles, the Sixers, the Phillies, the Flyers. All of ’em. Fuck ’em all. My generation had Philadelphia ruined by Eric Lindros, maybe. That d-bag.
I do like Pat the Bat and Chase Buttley. “Boo? Fuck you!”
I’ve also always liked Jayson Werth for no reason in particular except that he mashes lefties on one of the baseball games from a few years ago so I’d always trade for him. WHAM!
I do like It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. You’re like a big round wiz-urrd.

I live in Philadelphia, so I like myself
I could care less about hockey. I actually had to look up who Eric Lindros was. Still haven’t figured out what he did.
It’s fun to root for the home team, and the Philly fans in the sports bars are smart, funny, and know the game. It’s way different from the way they are stereotyped.

I have no problem with their fans
Booing bad teams should come naturally if you care about the team. Setting a drunk ass Santa dickhead on fire is no skin off my ass.

I don't really like the Phillies....
….but I don’t want the Brewers to win ANYTHING. EVER. I want Selig’s entire lifetime to be an exercise in futility.
So, go Phils.

Playoff baseball while I'm at work blows
It will especially blow tomorrow when it’s the Rays and White Sox.

jesus christ
“Not big numbers from Counsell but the kind of guy that just does everything right and is a winning-type player.”
Ah. Yes. A “winning-type” player. I hate having “losing-type” players like A-Rod.

The Yankees rotation could be
Carlos Silva – Jarrod Washburn – Daniel Cabrera – Carl Pavano – Dontrelle Willis
And it would still be Alex Rodriguez’ fault when they lose.

jeez
Two on, one out, Hamels whiffs Hall and gets Braun to pop out. He’s rolling.

It was an elimination game, you jackass.
This is the first of at least 3, and it’s the SECOND INNING.

You know what I hate?
How the Red Sox and Angels play tonight and have a game off then play again Friday night, even though both games are in LA. What is the point of that and when did that start? They didn’t always do that, did they? It’s annoying.

To hype the Los Angeles crowd up to make a comeback against the BOSTON Red Sox, they play a song by an IRISH HIP-HOP GROUP.
