I don’t know if that is more important–it is the Sixers, after all–but I sure as hell would say it would be much more predictable. (But the team that stuffed them the night before lost to the King-less Cavs, so what does THAT say?)

WOW!! Just saw the score. 11-7 Giants? I guess Cliff Lee loses his crown as the greatest postseason pitcher of all time. Oh well. In more important news, the Sixers got bombed by the Borg last night, and they basically look like a intramural squad. 30 wins would be a miracle this year for them.

Reader Michael Caragliano reminds me of one I must have blocked from my memory: 14-11 game the Indians and Marlins played in 1997. It was a bad enough 7-7 game after eight, and THEN it got epic sloppy. Three errors and a wild pitch by Cleveland produced seven more runs in the top of the ninth, and then the Marlins tried to give the game back in the bottom half, with snow flurries coming down, to boot.

This has got to please some Philadelphia pitching very, very much. Timmy almost blew up the game early on, and then he held fast. I think the shock of seeing SF pick Cliff Lee apart killed the Rangers Offense more than Timmy did. It was as if SF took the first page from GWB’s war on Iraq and used it against his Texas Rangers. Shock and Awe was the name of the game, leaving Cliff Lee and the Rangers looking, well, Shocked and awed.
