This confirms there is no god.

captmcblack · Oct 30, 2014

Don't worry, guys.

Yankees will be back in 2/3 seasons to steamroll all baseball hopes and dreams again. Then, you won't have to worry about pesky NL teams doing stuff anymore.

I hereby move for a vote of no confidence on Xia, and I think we should disallow him from making anymore food-related threads in OT

That is a hilarious coincidence

If I remember correctly, I took a shit on those days. Proof that putting out shit helps the giants win.

vatstep · Oct 30, 2014

I didn't have a rooting interest, but it really is kind of cruel that the Royals the fucking Royals steamroll their way to the World Series after years and years of miring in utter shit, and then lose to a team that's now won three-of-five.

ahahahahaha your funny

baseball is best when the wanks aren't trying to buy world series.

they're lucky kc lost because a lot of people would be making fun of the fact that the highest payroll in baseball missed the playoffs while the smallest market went on to win it all.

braves01 · Oct 30, 2014

Now SF sports fan yupsters will be even douchier for a year.

Gray Matter · Oct 30, 2014

I'm not even a royals fan and I'm upset.

sycam0re · Oct 30, 2014

Hahaha. Best OP

speculawyer · Oct 30, 2014

That is quite the convoluted paranoid conspiracy theory.

Well done!

GuitarAtomik · Oct 30, 2014

Had to set up a rush order of $1600 worth of Royals World Series Champs cup decals today for a client. Good stuff lol.

smokeandmirrors · Oct 30, 2014

So in order to win a world series this decade you're gonna need to get to win it in an odd year.

wsoxfan1214 · Oct 30, 2014

Fuck the giants.

And Yankees.

braves01 · Oct 30, 2014

Dr. Malik · Oct 30, 2014

dont forget to buy 1989

speculawyer · Oct 30, 2014

Haha! KC losers!

I don't give a shit. Go SJ Sharks!

Branduil · Oct 30, 2014

The Giants are the Commie Nazi Hitlers of baseball. Hopefully the Devil will collect on their Faustian bargain soon.

Kevtones said:

Everyone did. The same team winning over and over is the most utterly boring and frustrating thing in sports. No one will be talking about this by next week.

So Tony LaRussa's Diamondbacks will beat the Cardinals next year to advance to the WS?

Yeah. I have a new job though. Don't start training until Sunday so I'll be good.

Partially there already. Gordon got me so hyped and then salvie took it all away with another one of his patented at bats

She only releases albums in even years (06, 08, 10, 12, 14) so.

Giants winning it in 2016 with a new taylor swift album.
