National East Standings
W L PCT GB
Florida 5 3 .625 - -
Philadelphia 4 5 .444 1
New York 3 4 .429 1.5
[b]Atlanta 3 6 .333 2.5 [/b]
Washington 3 6 .333 2.5
W = Won L = Lost PCT = winning percentage GB = Games behind
So Atlanta Braves 2 and half games behind after playing 9 games. So not that great so far.

You did indeed climb the John Hancock in Boston MCS, although shame you didn't get stranded in Chicago, then you could have gone in the other John Hancock - which is 700ft taller - and spied both the Cubs and White Sox ballparks :-)0

And Soldier Field...
There's a great, but expensive bar on the 90 somethingth floor, I got stuck up there one day during a thunder storm, amazing to look out and see the lightning around you.0 -
Soldier Field and on a good day 5 states. That thunder must have been something BFR.0
-
It was - actually it was three storms or three parts of the same storm, one to the north over Wrigleyville/Lincoln Park, the second westish in the direction of O'Hare and the other over Lake Michigan. I was walking back from the aquarium when the storm broke and instead I got a cab to the Hancock Tower specifically to watch the storm from the top of the tower. A fantastic experience to be so close to lightning and yet safe, and see it forking down to earth around you.0

Cos I gave a team to everyone who posted on the thread (Rothko go the coolest team) and you look like an Oriole : -)0 -
New York Mets will win the World Series this year.
Locked on.
Fact!0 -

So far in the American League its the Boston Red Sox, Chicago White Sox out in front while the LA DOdgers and Oakland Athletics are tied.
In the national league the leader of the three division are Florida, Chicago Cubs and Arizona
Arizona are the best team so far with .739 percentage of games won while the Texas Rangers and Washington are the worst with only a .333 PCT.
The Astros beat the Cardinals 3-2 having been 2 - 0 down going in to the last innings.
The Damn Yankees are not having a good year0 -
falconwood, sorry to tell you this but what i saw of the Mets when i was there they have more chance of winning the world series than we do of getting promoted this season. sitting at Shea it did remind me of the Valley though, team down by 2 runs with about 3 inns left and the whole stadium booing the team, think we should do a sort of link up with the Mets like United have with the Yankees0
-
if they were playing shite they deserved it.0
-
i did try to make blue jays game last year but had missed it by a day.0

oh behave baseball - PERLEASE0

My footie team r shite my scottish team just lost and now i know my baseball team is shite i may just give up now0
-
What, despite losing the last five, including getting swept by the hapless Rays, with big Papi swinging like a damn girl and Mike Lowell still on Injured Reserve? I'd be more worried about losing out on the division title to the Gloryholes than the Yankmees anyway - their time is finished. The Sox have no chance this year (Christ I sound like the doomsayers on here going on about CAFC!)
Anyhoo, the Pens beat the Rangers this afternoon to go 2-0 up in the series - Stanley Cup here we come
0 -
Don't speak too soon Leroy - Pens look good but there is a long way to go yet0

How are my lot doing Henry?
Should I be demanding the manager is sacked and booing?0 -

The Reds have just improved to 11 -15 and would be in a relegation place if such a thing existed in baseball.0 -
Midseason/All Star Game break - the two best teams are the LA Dodgers and the Cubs who are at .600
http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/standings/index.jsp0 -
Has to be Chicago White Sox - the first team I saw play for real - and regular failures (though not this year)0
-
tampa bay leading the AL wildcard chase playoffs here we come!!*
*speaks too soon0 -
The Mets are stinking the place out. Sacked their Manager etc etc
The Sox look strong, so do the Cubs but they have a history of choking.0
