You aren't kidding. Rangers, Cowboys, Mavs, Stars. Not exactly a model of success for any team since the early to mid-90's when the Cowboys were winning Super Bowls.

OMG I just saw a strike get thrown!

Texas hold'em jokers are wild.

You dont remember how sweet it was to be a Cowboys fan in the 90s?

cajmoyper · 10-29-2010, 02:59 AM

CJ left these guys in fairly good position. And they just couldn't give us enough. Don't lose faith MRF. I've seen more dominant looking performances through 2 games only to have the other team come back.

What the hell has happened to the Rangers bullpen? The thongs and panda hats must be getting to them.

How many times in the history of MLB has a team come back from a 2-0 hole after being dominated in the first two games?

Gotta give it up to Matt Cain who pitched another shutout game... so far in the playoffs Cain has given up 0 runs...

... thats 0 runs in 3 games.... 23 innings... hes been our best pitcher so far.... Like every other giants game its someone else who contributes... this time it was Edgar Renteria, who was put in for his defense comes up huge with the HR... This game was a lot closer than the 9-0 final... Giants up 2-0 gong into Texas!

Go Giants!

Yup the Yankees fans at work laughed at me when I said Cain was better than Lincecum right now. Seriously still think I was right, Giants are riding a huge wave of momentum that even an excellent team like the Rangeers can't handle. Rangers' best pitcher couldn't get the job done and they're down 2-0, will take a huge miracle for them to last past game 4.

Hi-Def Steve · 10-29-2010, 05:36 AM

Sorry but it's not going to take a miracle for Texas to get 2 at home. Miracle for them to win the series at SF....perhaps.

Texas is historically bad at home and unless they regroup quickly, they will soon find themselves in an 0-3 hole, needing to win 3 in a row while San Fran only needs 1. Don't see them coming back if San Francisco wins game 3.

Hi-Def Steve · 10-29-2010, 05:58 AM

They ain't gonna roll over, no way. Not when they've come this far.

Walts Ghost · 10-29-2010, 08:07 AM

Man, the Giants steamrolled the Rangers these last two games!

I hope the Giants can keep they're composure and win game three....If they can take a 3-0 lead, we may be able to take the series

Matt Cain is now one of the best pitchers in postseason history!

1996 Braves vs. Yankees.... that series still hurts every bit as much as 1991.

Game 1: Braves win 12-1
Game 2: Braves win 4-0
Game 3: Yankees 5-2
Game 4: Yankees 8-6 in 10 innings
Game 5: Yankees 1-0
Game 6: Yankees 3-2

And amazingly games 1 and 2 were in Yankee Stadium and games 3-5 in Atlanta. Braves outscored NY 26-18 and lost the series in 6 games.

But those are the Braves. They are known for choking in the postseason. Braves have set a record for winning divisional titles and only have won 1 World series during the Bobby Cox era..
