These numbers are as of this original post time.

For MLB games today, I cam across something on this board that made me laugh, and made me sad, all at the same time.

For todays Yankee/Mets game, we have 2 game threads.  One for the game, which has 11 posts.  There is also one announcing the rainout, and that has 10 posts.

So, we have 21 posts concerning a game that will not be played.

For the Red Sox / Brewers game, we have one thread, and that thread has 37 posts.  All of this for a game in rain delay, i.e, no game being played.

All of that said, we do have 3 games ongoing as of right now ( Toronto/Phily, KC/FLA, & Cleveland/Cin )

Total game threads about these games.  Again, these games are going on right now.

You guessed it.  Zero.

Sad.

When I make a Tribe game thread There are usually only 2-3 posters that jump in it.

I didn't make one because The Cavs/Celtics game tonight.

All the Yankkes/Red Sox talk here get's old.

Try and hope as I might, I just can't seem to get people to be fans of the MLB as a whole.  That, and the fans of the "other 28 teams" as I call them, they tend to stay on their team specific board, for fear of being over-run by Yankee and Red Sox fans.

Again,

sad.

I did leave them out, but with reason.  There IS a thread for that game.  Check it out, if you haven't already.

Dodgers win tonight.  Angels win tomorrow.  Dodgers win Sunday.

I like the Angels pitching better that the Dodgers on whole, but I give L.A the edge for getting the extra hitter in the lineup due to A.L rules for D.H, and as The Big A is a better hitters yard than Chavez.

BigD,I don't think it's sad on the Yankees/Sox fans part, it should be that way for all fans. Unfortunately that's not the case.

About being runover by Yankees and Sox fans, I disagree. From what I've seen so far, other than a few on each side, most act decently to other teams fans. It's the misconception of us Yanks/Sox fans that causes what little bad blood there is.

I would say Angels take 2 of 3. Should be a great series though. Best of luck to the Dodgers.
