Why is that ???
We're talking about 2005 not this year. Two of tops teams in the NL are very young so I expect them to not play as well towards the end.Quote:

^^^ More like no PAT's.
Google it. I''d also like to know why the AL does have designated hitters. It was the AL that made the rule too.Quote:

Explain? Okay, out of 16 teams (one too many) of the AL verses 14 teams from the NL, only about 3 are good and the rest are mediocre. Why do you think the same teams go to the playoffs. That's not true in the NL. Look how tight shit is in the NL East One of those 3 aren't gonna go, and could easily beat the AL's best. In the AL it's always these two, Boston Red Sox & New York Yankees. The other two are always filled with mediocre trash or "surprise" teams.Quote:

So the NL is much better at pitching ???
In general ?
NL teams play more small ball whereas the AL has more offensive based teamsQuote:

Well, the AL does have the Yankees.
Some of the the fat ass hitters tend to play in the American League(as DH's) so they don't have to play the field.
On a side note, Prince Fielder should try to lose a little weight, or he might blow up soon.
The NL holds the lead in All Star wins, and it isn't even close, but the AL has been better over the last 10-15 years
Just got back from the Tigers game. 19-3. Thats 53 runs in 5 games. Minnesota looked terrible tonight.
I also caught a foul ball from Cuddyer in the 2nd.
The Red Sox are having a good run, but they aren't perennially in the mix....Each league has ebs and flows...they Yankees sucked in the 80's and early 90's, had a great run and are starting to suck again.Quote:

Dont forget the Blue Jays when they went back to back.
The NL has good teams...the old Braves teams were awesome. I dont really think one is better. Its hard to tell w/ the DH and stuff.
NL is the REAL league.
Says the Phillies fan.
because the NL it's a position players league not the old man league the american league is with all the DH stuffQuote:

Do you think the Rays could win the American league this season?
What's up with the Rockies? They have like the worst record in baseball right now.
They definitely can but idk, I'll say that it'll be ALOT harder for the Red Sox and Yankees to win the division.Quote:

Chase Utley will win MVP 3-peat for the Fightin' Phillies I'll call it right now.

jesus fucking christ....why was I born a Tigers fan...???
4 walk-off loses in the last 8 games...no way should that be possible..
NO ONE else in the league can lose these games like we do
We're turning into the Lions. Finding a new way to lose games every outing
Damn, it was 4-3 when I passed out.
There's always tomorrow, lol.
