Diamondbacks turn to be swept - book it.

 

That would be really depressing if that happens

 

I want this to happen. I've learned to hate the D'backs.

Is it because we are 30-49 against them all time and 23-44 against them since 1999?

Not only a sweep but, I'd like to see Mister Intensity Bug Eyes Valverde blow a save in the process - wonder how much he'll jump around under such circumstances.

Yeah, I know it's probably illogical to hate him and yet love Zambrano as much as I do...but I really want this to happen.

Of course, my view is bias however, I don't believe Zambrano is quite as obnoxious.

Neither do I, but fans of other teams do...so whatever.

 

Either way; Sweep please.

I don't get all the Dbacks hatred. Yeah, they swept us. So what? It was more because we crapped the bed than them playing above their heads.

Go Rockies!

 

I'm not upset at the Diamondbacks for beating the Cubs. The Cubs let themselves get beat with their piss-poor performance. I just don't want to see a team that got outscored during the regular season making it to the World Series.

Meh! It's more fun to have someone to root against. It might as well be the D'backs.

I'm not thinking the D-Backs will last much longer. If the Rockies win tonight, they're just one win shy of having won 20 in a row. The momentum they have now blows what the Cardinals had last year out of the water, and they're actually a good team. I'm going to be really surprised if they don't win it all and become the 3rd of the 4 most recent expansion teams to go to and win a WS series before the Cubs finally go again.

The Rockies have won 7 in a row. They were beaten by Brandon Webb on the 28th to break up an 11-game win streak. A win tonight makes 19 of 20 heading back to Colorado, so your point stands that they can pretty much do no wrong right now.

 

EDIt - I guess that's what you meant by a win shy. nm.

Yeah, I could have worded that better, but I wasn't sure how.

To hell with the haters...I love the insane passion of Valverde.

 

I cannot stand him and sincerely hope that at some point in the near future, some team gets to him simply so that we can all be spared the spasms he exhibits upon simply striking out a batter.
