AL
East: Yanks
Central: Tigers
West: Mariners
Wild Card: Red Sox

NL
East: Phils
Central: Cards
West: Rockies
Wild Card: Reds

Yes!!

Well, beat the drum and hold the phone - the sun came out today!
We’re born again, there’s new grass on the field.
A-roundin’ third, and headed for home, it’s a brown-eyed handsome man;
Anyone can understand the way I feel.

[Rusty the Scoob]

Hoping for the Sox in AL east, Twins in AL Central, and my fantasty team to not suck too badly.

[found the sound]

Sox will be lucky if they get the Wild Card. Yanks = Repeating champions.

[chuckvegas]

Cards = if there is a loving and benevolent God

Yanks = probably so

Its all good!

[New York Steve]

YANKS again>

[Electric Green]

Phillies to the World Series again vs the Yanks, this time the phils win. Other picks are irrelevant.

I really like the way you think. Couldn't agree more.

[Rusty the Scoob]

Yankees fans??? Man, that's like rooting for Bill Gates to make a little more money. Do you watch Star Wars and secretly hope that Luke's X-wing gets shot down?

[found the sound]

Ohhh don't be bitter. Red Sox franchise doesn't have anywhere near the amount of integrity, pride, and dignity as the Yankees. in fact, the Yankees are the greatest franchise in all of sports hands down.

I'll admit, I ain't a huge fan of Steinbrenner, but I was raised a Yankee fan and I'll die one. We still got some great yankee players and some great chemistry. I'm not going to out right hate on Georgey because he uses his money. The man knows what he wants and he aint afraid to shell out the big bucks. Nothing wrong with that in my book.

[Rusty the Scoob]

Integrity, Pride, and Dignity? You're joking right?


How does any Deadhead root for a team that enforces a code against long hair and facial hair?

Well, there is Manchester United, but they don't count here...

I like the music of the grateful dead I couldn't care less about hair and facial hair. I agree that it is a stupid regulation but I don't care they look pretty classy to me. Pinstripes not fade away.

[Rusty the Scoob]

Pinstripes. They look like a bunch of lawyers out there.


Hair is freedom, man. Why do you hate Freedom?

[found the sound]

Ahhh, get outta here hippie. Hair is not freedom. If you were getting paid millions of dollars to play the sport you love in one of the best cities in the world you'd cut your hair too. Your point is completely moot.

I'm sorry your World Series total isn't quite up to our standards yet. Kiss the ring.

[Rusty the Scoob]

Sure I would. But I wouldn't respect the a-hole who made me do it!

Until they implement a salary cap; it is pretty easy for them to be the "best". Plus, MLB is like watching paint dry. College baseball is far superior. TTFN.
