🚨Sabres Force Game 7 vs. Habs

BUCKLED BY THE KNUCKLE.

Dan VerhaegheMay 19, 2009




I was stunned to see the hype of this game only to get the NESN feed. Like what the fuck TSN? You can only send people to work one game at once, that being an NHL playoff game? Is your budget that low? I didn't really want to hear the crappy NESN announcers say things like: "You can't expect to keep this up, Toronto, with four starters we've never heard of."

Or: "Right now is not a good time to say anything because Tim Wakefield is pitching so quickly."

THE ANNOUNCERS SUCKED TONIGHT!

BUT:

Yadda, Yadda, Yadda, It was a great game.

Yadda, Yadda, Yadda, Wakefield had a bucklin' Knuckleball.

Yadda, Yadda, Yadda, Jays dropped game 2-1.

Yadda, Yadda, Yadda, B.J. Ryan sucked balls.

Toss the Yadda Yadda Yadda aside and realize this:

This could have been an entirely different game if Marco Scutaro was able to keep that ball fair down the left field line for a two-run bomb. But then again George Kottarius belted one down the right field line just foul.

In the end Boston prevailed 2-1, and Toronto really just tried to swing too hard and too often at the knuckle ball, leading to many pop ups and pulled balls that went nowhere.

Brian Tallet gave his best effort, 6 innings, 2 ER, but it wasn't enough—for the second straight time.

But hey, look at the bright side, Toronto's still 2.5 up on Boston and they've won four of five and still have the best record in the AL at 27-15.

Oh, and Vernon Wells? You are sucking.

Game Two tomorrow night. A POWER LEFTY CECIL VS. A CRAPTACULAR PENNY.

ADVANTAGE TORONTO.
