You’re not the only one eating crow by counting (he he, Counting Crows, Mr Jones and me) the Athletics out of this thing.

Heck, challenge any douchebag in a sports bar to name three players out of the Oakland lineup and if they say Canseco first, have them buy you a shot before punching them in the face.

Oh, and I still haven’t seen Moneyball.

I went to all three games of the sweep, and it was the most fun I’ve had in a long time. There’s something sweeter about it when you come out of a down period. There’s so many storylines with this team that make them so remarkable. 6 1B, 5 3B, 11 OF, 3 2B, 3 SS, a ton of rookie relievers and pitchers (most ever by a playoff team). Yet nobody hears any of the cool stories since they get no air time. If straily and griffin were selling shoes last year and contributing to the Yankees like they are with the A’s they’d be as big as lin. Same with Sean Doolittle being a 1B then transferred to being a reliever THIS YEAR. Even cespedes gets overlooked on the four letter network. If you look at their record with and without him, its ridiculous to not see how valuable he and give him at least McCutchen like attention. I’m going to the ALDS and like Bart Scott once said CAN’T WAIT! I’ve always believed in Beane, but this one was way more special than any of the teams in the early 2000′s no matter what happens in the playoffs.
