DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Tailgate Forum Indians vs. Sox Game 7 positive karma thread!

Ellisberry looks about 14 years old.

They took out Coco Crisp, why couldn't we have done it with Nixon.

Bring in Gagne for the 9th!

That left side of the diamond has been a joke these last couple of games.

Man, can things get any worse, jeeze.

Does this rank as one of Cleveland's collpases or not?

Oh for the love of God............

Come on, how the hell do you do that? Fundamentals of baseball, and we can't do it all night in game 7 of the ALCS.

laughable now.

Is there a Cleveland sports team that can finish what they start?

We don't deserve it one bit. Doesn't matter how we played. It's not sportsmanship at all.

That is coming from someone who actually likes the Sox. Don't want them to win but I like them when Cleveland isn't playing them.

This is starting to become laughable, at least I'm not tensed up now.

I know we're going to lose now.

Come on Rockies, kick Boston ASS!!!

good season guys

im off to bed, i cant watch this

Ugh... been "watching" this on Gameday. You know things are bad when Betancourt blows chunks. U-G-L-Y. Well, add another epic collapse to Cleveland sports lore. This is just embarassing...

The Kenny Lofton curse?

Lofton has been a part of 4 of the biggest collapses in baseball history, including THE biggest collapse in the history of sports - the 2004 ALCS.

2002 Giants
2003 Cubs
2004 Yanks
2007 Indians

Kenny's been to the postseason 11 times, the ALCS an amazing 7 times, yet no World Series championships.

I think I'll switch the channel now.

How tall is Pedroia?

A big hand for a little man, WTF was that MCcarver?

perfect. Hope you turned it off already LJ.

This sucks ass now

I can't watch the celebration.........gotta work in the morning, but I'm so fired up there's no way I'm going to sleep.

Good grief... 9-2. 'Nite all. At least Pittspuke lost tonight!

The media will NEVER let us live this down.....I don't care, I'm just saying.

Cleveland deserved this...and the sad thing is that we might not ever have such a hot team walking into the playoffs. Sad. I'm not pleased with this.

I would be pleased with a Browns playoff but we weren't going to play a huge powerhouse in the WS. It was a chance and we jumped out on top 3-1.

Sad really

But it was a great end, I just wish if we had to be on the losing end that we would have been the one to come back but just not enough instead of the victims to the Red Sux.

I'm not turning it off until the last out is on the board.

Would hate to see the greatest comeback in recent history. Won't happen but I would hate myself if I turned it off and it did.

Ouch. I just want to see if we can manage to put 3 on the boards... Then I'll say it was Rafael B.

I don't care as much as I should I guess... After the floodgate opened, it just made the loss easier to bear. I love being a Cleveland fan, and I think we're one of the greatest sports cities in America. At least we don't milk attention by not winning anything for as long as we have. I'm a young guy, so I don't know it like some of the older fans do... But I try to wear it as a badge of honor like a fan is supposed to, not a "Pity Me!" badge.

I have to go to work and put up with all the Rockies fans tomorrow. Ugh.

No kidding... I'm boycotting all sports-related programming for at least a week. It's going to be sickening.

Betancorts a joke

There goes steroids man again, he needs tested RIGHT NOW.

I feel like the little kid that always got picked on in school right now.

This really sucks, but I will go to bed tonight knowing and believing that the city of Cleveland ( my home town) has a good young baseball team, a young football team that is on the rise, and a basketball team that was just in the NBA finals. I believe that one of these three teams will soon win a title, and the taste will be sweet!.

Keep the faith.

maybe we'll get 10 in the 9th

11-2.

Nothing to look back and regret... It's been a great year for the Indians, we just couldn't get it done. I know any of you don't want to hear it, but they'll have great experience for next year.

I won't turn this off... With the Tribe going to Arizona for Spring Training, I feel more distant from the team then I ever have. This is the last meaningful game we'll be able to see until April.

I almost threw up when I saw that ************ Manny slaping hands.

But yes, I will watch the postgame coverage with Drennan, and then waer my Indians hat tomorrow.

Well ........ a 10 run 9th might be a little much to ask for ......

Unfortunately, our #1 and #2 really didn't come through in this series.

Looks like the Browns are up now as far as bringing the next Championship to Cleveland.


Great year for the Tribe though. They overcame a lot on their way to a spectacular finish and a solid series against the Yankees.

Maybe Peralta will run to the mound and piledrive Papelbon!

Up 3-1 with your two aces upcoming.

This was a choke job, in typical Cleveland fashion.

Unbelievable.

Why can't we just lose close games? Why is it that every time a Cleveland team get's some where they lose historically. It's bad when a team has more named blunders than championships.

Wonder what this one will be called.

The tribe will be back and better next year, and they''ll have valuable playoff experience. Theyre young, and many of them are signed years to come.

Talk about a failure of a season. Up to 3-1 and Cleveland comes home empty handed.

Indians blew it, Cavs blew it, OSU blew it twice. What a rotten year.

If you can't be spectacularly good, at least be memorable and be spectacularly bad? lol
