    Rollins wants 5 years. Seems like a whole lot.

    I wouldn't feel too good about that.

    no way. 3 with a team option for a 4th is the longest I would go

    go cards tonight... bring on the mastermind

    he's on the giants' radar and I say "hell, no!" of course, he is a perfect fit as a sabean guy....in his 30s with his best years behind him :roll:

    what do you guys think....is there anything left in the tank?

    what's he got, like 15 HR playing in your bandbox? he'd be lucky to hit double figures in SF.

    he's too young for the giants. they will sign him after his next contract :D

    i wouldn't go 5.

    i'm just happy he's got his groove back. whole lineup seems to be coming together nicely at the absolute perfect time. they were still in their post clinching slumber heading into the reds series last year.

    i'm pretty fucking confident right now.......only thing is i forgot i have my mom in law's b day dinner on saturday night. :x 7pm too. definitely going to miss some or all of game 1.

    Do you know what time you guys are at on Saturday yet? Probably won't be announced until the games are over tonight, right? I have to figure the Yanks will be the last game of the night. Trying to figure out my day.

    Yeah, I hear you. Yanks are at 8:37 Friday and I am assuming they will be the latest game on Saturday too, just want to know for sure. Hoping so. Trying to hit this Pumpkin Beer Fest at The Institute in the early afternoon then head up to New York for the game. Going to be a long day.

    How do you get to & back from those games?

    And if a west coast team gets home field (Arizona?) they might be the last game on Saturday.

    Depends on the situation and who I am going with. Sometimes drive to the stadium, sometimes drive to Trenton and take NJ Transit in, sometimes take a bus, sometimes take Amtrak (try to avoid because its so expensive). Really all depends on who I am going with and what my plans are. Amtrak is easiest but most expensive, bus is least expensive but its a bus and the NJ Transit just takes a while.

    Since I will be drinking before this weekend, I will most likely just hop on a bus and head up. Think I am staying with the guy I am going to the game with Saturday and will probably take the train home Sunday depending on timing.

    I would have a tough time seeing Arizona get prime time. Could see Boston/Texas getting the last game, although the Yanks are already scheduled for the last game on Friday.

    is it possible for there to be two prime time games on saturday? pretty sure fox and tbs both have games right.

    TBS has all Div Series games. Sat games will prob be 1, 4, 7 & 10. Arz game at 10 sounds about right. That isn't prime time. They might be interested in showing Roy Halladay in prime time Cliffy, esp after one year ago. 8-)

    I'd be shocked if the yanks aren't in prime time. shocked.

    not sure why I'm even posting since I'm going to miss all these games anyway :twisted: . the fixer is not excited about this trip

    Yeah, that's true. There is going to have to be two games at night. Wonder if they will do a late game or two prime time. Without getting into a NY-Philly pissing match, Roy Halladay or not, no hitter or not, and best team in baseball or not, I can't envision any scenario where Philly gets the 8 pm game over the Yankees. If for nothing else, just because of the market size of each.

    I don't really give a shit what time the games are. As long as it's not 10:30 like that Rockies series a couple years ago. Just speculating.
