The Hunt for October

Sorry, late post today guys! Thought you might needed the extra time to take in all the injuries, DUI arrests, and idiocy that busted your fantasy football team in the NFL the past couple weeks.

With the NFL starting to get into shape, TPIC will blow your mind by talking about BASEBALL! So what's the dealio?


For the 4th time in the past 5 years, the Halos are the American League Western Division Champions. This year, they did it with an entire month of baseball left to play, but it's not like there's any competition anyways. The second place Rangers are almost 20 games behind those slugging rally monkeys. And it doesn't hurt to have a guy named Francisco Rodriguez on your team who's setting the Major League record for saves in a season.

One advice: Don't choke in the playoffs!

Across the freeway, the Dodgers are now leading the NL West by a couple games. I guess Manny did come and save the day, hair or no hair (I don't care), disrespect to former team or not.


There's the southern California teams. So how about the Nor-Cal studs of the Yay Area?

WE SUCK DEEP-SHITTING ASS!!

I mean, we suck so much ass that there's no more ass to suck after a couple innings of suckiness. Man, that totally sucks ass! It's not even worth mentioning how much we suck cuz we suck so much. How many sucks can I say in one sucking sentence? Not as much as how the Suck Francisco Giants and the Oakland SuckA's are doing. Out of the entire bay you can only name 1 player who's a stud: Tim Lincecum, who could still win the Cy Young. Otherwise, baseball in the Bay Sucking Area does not exist in 2008. (I'm still a die-hard Giants fan, but we suck!)

However, one good thing coming out of this post is that my prediction a couple months ago still stands! In the AL, Tampa Bay is still on track to their first World Series, the Red Sox are still fighting for the East, Ozzie Guillen still hates Chicago even though their team's leading the Central, the Angels can just stop playing for a month. In the NL, the Dodgers are keeping the freeway series dream alive, the Phillies and Mets are fighting for their lives, and the Brewers are hoping that Vallejo-native CC Sabathia can carry the team, while the Cubs are dominating until they get to the World Series and the EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVIL Steve Bartman will come and touch every single baseball on the field.

Fear thy evil-rimmed glasses and satanic headphones, muahahahha!!!

There you have it. Before you get pumped up every week for more bone crushing tackles ala Jahvid Best and gear up to not watch Monta Ellis play for a couple months, there's still some Steve Bartman left in baseball, or some baseball left in Steve Bartman.
