It's almost unfathomable how quick the hooks have become this postseason. So quick that some are complaining Dervish wasn't pulled sooner. This is a massive strategic change in the game that seems to have occurred in just 2 seasons.

Jack Morris would be rolling over in his grave - if he were, you know, dead.
The first quick hook I can remember like these was the Grady game, Torre yanked Clemens in the 2nd I believe.

Some local ambulance chaser lawyer in SC just had 3 separate commercials on during that commercial break. THREE!! How much do they discount these local spots. Wow.

Three is crazy. Have done ad buys in the past with local affiliates where they get you to commit to a longer ad-flight and throw in a big sporting event ad as the cherry.

Think that dude that bet $14m on this game is sweating yet? Or did he get Biff Trump's sports almanac?
