2016 MLB Playoffs

Don Wassall · Oct 6, 2016

I probably won't watch much of it, but let's get the playoff thread going.

Did watch the team introductions for the Giants-Mets and San Fran started 7 Whites while the Mets had just 1 and 1 white-looking hispanic. They also had four blacks and hispanics sporting the hideous yellow hair that Odell Beckham has apparently made trendy among the uncool.

The Giants-Cubs series should be a good one as the Cubs are also led by White stars and are the favorites to win the World Series for the first time in a mere 108 years.

There are some extremely important playoff story lines which I hope come to fruition. Meanwhile the Rangers-Blue Jays series could be a real good old fashioned hate fest. You have Odor who literally sucker punched the Blue Jays Bautista earlier this year and throw in the rowdiest crowd in baseball, Toronto fans of course ( although throwing water bottles is bush league), and you have the making of a real battle. I am rooting for the Blue Jays in this series--(Kevin Pillar plays CF) and I am no fan of sucker punchers. Plus I can't stand the Rangers anyway. A genuine baseball brawl could erupt!

I'll be tuning into baseball tonight occasionally checking in on the football game. I really enjoyed the wildcard games full of action and drama.

I'll be pulling for the Nationals. Great top of the order with Trea Turner, Jayson Werth, Daniel Murphy, and Bryce Harper. Nice pitching with Scherzer, Strasburg, Roark, and closer Melancon. Maybe Ryan Zimmerman can get back to form. If the Nats do anything it will be due to their Whites.

celticdb15 · Oct 6, 2016

I like Nationals as well besides Crusty Baker.

Carolina Speed · Oct 8, 2016

So far things are going well!
Blue Jays up 2-0 on the Rangers. Donaldson had a monster first game going 4-4. Tulowitzki has had a good series and Happ wins game 2 for the Jays.

Indians up 2-0 on Boston. Kipnis batting .571 and a HR in game 1 and Larry Chisenhall with a game 2 HR. Kluber gets the game 2 win.

Dodgers up 1-0 with Corey Seager going deep and Turner going 2-3, HR and 2 RBI. Kershaw with the win. Tough loss for the Nationals Scherzer though.

Cubs up 1-0 on the Giants. Pitchers duel: 1-0. Cubs Lester with the win beating Cueto. Bryant 1-3 for the Cubs and Buster Posey going 2-4 for the Giants.

As I mentioned, things going pretty good so far. I am a little split on the Dodgers/Nationals, both teams start some very good white players. Also, the same with the Giants/Cubs.The Giants have as many as 7 white starters and the Cubs have Bryant, Rizzo, Zobrist, Arrieta, Lester, etc.
Hopefully the Indians and Blue Jays hang on to win their series.

Freethinker · Oct 8, 2016

The National league teams are all better from a demographics point of view than any of the AL teams. Even the best teams, Toronto and Cleveland, only start 4 Whites. Blue Jays with Donaldson, Tulowitzki, Saunders and Pillar. Cleveland with Napoli, Kipnis, Chisenhall and Naquin / Guyer. I'll be pulling for the Blue Jays, as they have more star power, to win the AL but in the World Series any of the NL squads will be preferred.

Pretty pissed off I'm unable to view tonight's Cubs vs Giants game because I don't have MLB network!!

Carolina Speed · Oct 10, 2016

Well, this kind of stinks! Arrieta just took Bumgarner deep for a 3 run HR. I don't mind the Cubs winning. I just would've liked Bumgarner to have continued his excellence in the post season.

Freethinker · Oct 10, 2016

The Indians have eliminated the very dark Red Sox and ended the career of the fat drug cheat. Expect the sportscucksters to wax poetic about how Ortiz's retirement is a huge loss to baseball. I won't expect them to make much mention of his use of performance enhancers.

2016 marks the end as well for another infamous hispanic drug cheat, Arod. Good riddance to both!

I turned on Sportscenter last night and they dedicated 10 or so minutes to Ortiz and his last game/retirement. They did not go into any detail regarding his steroid use of course but instead made him the big fat black jovial latino Kool-Aid man who the DWFs in Boston just loved. The lack of accountability, fans not being upset and the media refusing to tarnish his career over his use of performance enhancing drugs make me happiest he is retiring.

Glad to see the Red Sox go down the Indians. Still plenty of Big Poopi azz kissing going on in the media of course.

None of the AL teams seem all too friendly to whites but Boston and the Poopi worship would have been too much to take.

Just now the CBS "News" went to break, with the next story to come entitled "Farewell to Baseball Royalty" in reference to Ortiz. I turned it off as I had already endured 23 minutes of anti-Trump hate, the dredging up of Anita Hill's accusations against Clarence Thomas 25 years ago with the gist of it being that those poor American women must try to survive in a terrible "rape culture" that Donald Trump personifies. There was also a mention of the White female police officer in Tulsa who was charged with manslaughter in the death of a black man, even though it was found that the black was on an hallucinogenic drug. The onslaught by the anti-White communists who run the media is open, relentless, and ever more intensifying. The continuing release of Wikileaks documents damaging to Hillary was barely mentioned and the worst of it was glossed over. I pray that if Trump has the election stolen from him that he doesn't quit politics. Scott Pelley, always holding his glasses just so, also claimed that Hillary widened her lead after the second debate. Anyone who believes that is hopelessly naive and ignorant.

Admittedly I haven't been watching the games, but looking at the depth chart on the Cubs website I'm only seeing three white starters (Rizzo, Zobrist & Bryant). Two hispanics and three blacks. Is this thing out of date, or have things really gotten bad enough to consider this team "White friendly"?

To be honest, I'm pulling for the Giants. They start 7 whites most of the time and Madison Bumgarner was born in my backyard! However, the Cubs typically start 4 whites including the pitcher. More whites start than blacks or hispanics. Their 5 man pitching rotation is all white, Arrieta, Lester, Hendricks, Lackey, and Hammel. Also, Matt Szczur and Tommy La Stella play quite a bit. Not sure why Szczur isn't playing tonight.
Kyle Schwarber probably would've been a starter, but is injured.

Carolina Speed · Oct 20, 2016

Indians defeat Blue Jays and go to the World Series. Kipnis, and Napoli had a terrible series and Chisenhall played reasonably well. Kluber, I believe had 1 win. Hope these guys play better in the WS.
Cubs/Dodgers are tied,2-2 with Kershaw pitching well. Seager, Turner, Reddick and Pederson have had their moments. The Cubs Rizzo had a huge night Wednesday evening while the Cubs won going 3-5, HR and 3 RBI.
Their series resumes tonight in LA.

The Cubs won and are going to the World Series. If they win the World Series it may be a sign of the Apocalypse.

Wow, first pennant since 1945, the last year of WW2. After a long run of bad teams following 1945, the Cubs had a fair amount of very good teams starting with the dominant 1969 team that was overtaken in the NL East by the Miracle Mets in that expansion year. To not have won a pennant in 71 years and a World Series in 108 years is the greatest run of ineptitude in major U.S. sports leagues, though it will eventually be overtaken by some of the teams in MLB, NFL, NHL and the NBA since they all expanded to 30+ teams. In a 32 team league the straight odds are that any individual team will be the champion only once every 32 years on average. Of course many franchises win more often than that, which means others will have extended runs of failing to capture the ultimate prize. But much of the Cubs' long dry stretch occurred when the National League was just 8 teams and there were only 16 total in both leagues.

white is right · Oct 23, 2016

Yes I saw a story on the web on old Cubs fans watching the win at a nursing home/hospital. These men would have been teenagers the last time the Cubs won the pennant. Strangely enough the Cubs had the third most pennants in 45' after the Yankees and Giants. Maybe the goat curse was real....

Ps the longest futility streak after the Cubs is the NFL Cardinals who haven't won since they played in Chicago. I also remember writers referring to the Cubs ownership group being more interested in the bottom line than trying to sign free agents. Hence the garden party the stadium is during summer games during a weekday.

Phall · Oct 24, 2016

Apparently, Kyle Schwarber just might be able to "trade in his walking cane for his 44 oz. bat" or whatever by the World Series. This would be wonderful; he had been one of the few MLB players to pique my interest these last few seasons and seemed to be keeping up his blistering rookie call-up pace until this year's big injury.

The Cubs franchise has been trying hard for awhile now. Their fair and flexible treatment of Jeff Samardzija was my first inclination that they were not just churning and burning Latino prospects, ie their south-side AL counterparts (and many other MLB teams).

I may still root for Cleveland because of its extremely offensive 'Chief Wahoo' mascot. Thirty years from now, some little nerdy grade-school baseball archivist may ask me, should we already be colonized by Arabic or Asian hierarchies, if I was really an Indians fan! And then I could say, "Oh boy, no! I was just racist!"

Kluber is pitching lights out so far!! 8ks through3 innings!! Amazing!

Freethinker · Oct 25, 2016

This is a much Whiter game than I expected. The Cubs are starting a surprising 6 of 9 white batters and a White starter. David Ross is Lester's personal catcher and Chris Coghlan is a bit of a surprise starter. DHing for the Cubs is Kyle Schwarber, who only played 2 games this year before blowing out his knee. Many questioned the move to roster him let alone start him. He proved doubters wrong by blasting a double of the wall moments ago. On the other side, the Indians start 5 White hitters, if you count the very White "Latino" Roberto Perez, and a White starter. A game worth watching.

On a funny note, the Cubbies left big free agent signing Jason Heyward off the WS roster. The massive bust has had an underwhelming career after an admittedly good rookie season. Despite being mediocre, teams still trip over each other to throw money at this guy. Also, some may remember the sports cucksters comparing Heyward to Hank Aaron after that rookie season. Like their other pet project, black quarterbacks, the caste media will never miss an opportunity to fawn over the next great negro in baseball. It's a sick obsession.

Don Wassall · Oct 25, 2016

I saw postage stamp pics of the starting lineups of both teams in the sports section and spotted Heyward and saw how he hit a robust .230 with 7 homers and 49 RBIs in 530 at bats in 2016. Guess he won't be winning a Triple Crown any time soon. For his career he has 104 homeruns in seven seasons and a .262 BA. Yeh, the new Hank Aaron if Aaron had played every game dead drunk.

Don Wassall · Oct 26, 2016

Congrats to Fox Sports for using Pete Rose as an analyst, whose persecution by the hypocritical MLB PTB has been ongoing for 30 years now.

Of course they had to screw it up by also using the disgraced "A-Rod." A-Rod would be shunned like Mark McGwire if he was White, and Rose would have been in the Hall of Fame a long time ago if he was a "person of color" like say the convicted drug smuggler Orlando Cepeda.

Don Wassall · Nov 2, 2016

It's down to Game 7. One of the droughts will end tonight.

The AP wire report in today's birdcage liner refers to Cubs reliever Aroldis Chapman as "atomic-armed." I've yet to run across that one when referring to black quarterbacks but I'll bet it's only a matter of time as that's a pretty good one. If Donovan McNabb could throw a football 80 yards with a flick of his wrist according to Crissie Collinsworth, surely some of the young up and coming black QBs must have "atomic arms." Because as we're constantly reminded, football players keep getting "bigger, faster and stronger" in spite of a growing volume of evidence that the sport pretty much sucks the way it's played by the current group of affirmative action-dominated hires. The AP writer who coined the term, if indeed he did, should be in line for a healthy pay raise.
