    How about that world series huh?

    I'm hoping the Rangers can pull it out.

    I am too. Unless the Yankees are playing, I usually go for the American League team. And the Yankees thankfully lost.

    It seems like the Rangers have the better team but they are not getting it done. The Giants must be a team of over achievers.

    I'm pulling for the Giants simply because I do not wish to see this man win a World Series.



    I am a man driven by spite and pettiness.

    Hey, Basil, what has "Frenchy" ever done to you?

    Anyway-- in this tiny little corner of the world yours fooly and her kith and kin were so gosh-darned happy that the Stinkees and the Sillies were out of it, that we were rooting for BOTH the Rangers and the Giants!

    Congratulations, SF!

    Congrats to San Fran. Strong pitching and clutch hitting did it.

    My Rangers didn't pull it off, but they finally made it to the world series. Most of the fans are thrilled in the fact that they reached the series, even though they lost.

    It may take another 38 years to get there again.

    When I was in my teens I used to feel the same exact way. Baseball was life!

    The home team is starting to show a little life. Early on in the season the Mets were using the Braves like a 10-dollar hooker.
    Uhhhh...

    I've grown up right next to St. Louis, home of the Cardinals. I'm sure any even moderate baseball fan knows St. Louis's reputation of being a baseball town. Opening day is a bigger holiday than Christmas around here, if one were to judge by the news coverage, and I'm not exaggerating. That being said. . .

    I HATE BASEBALL.

    I really, really do. It's so boring, and he amount players are paid for playing a child's game is insane. I root for The Cards to lose for the simple reason that if they do, it's that much less time I have to hear about them.
