Baseball

Those who know me know I am not a huge baseball fan. I enjoy the occasional game. I just think there are way to many games and lets be honest half the people on a baseball team have a specific skill and are not really atheletes. I liken it to bowling or golf. They have a sweet skill but it doesn't mean they are athletically inclined. Anyway I have been in many an argument about what is the definition of an athelete and I am not here to argue that. I am here to say that the game between the Twins and the Tigers the other night was one awesome baseball game. The pressure of every at bat was awesome. The lead changes. The strategy. The clutch hits the clutch defense. If baseball could bottle that recipie and repeat it would blow every other sport out of the water. That game was a freaking classic. I hate when people say that but it was. MaYbe they should have 2 wild cards teams from each division play a 1 game playoff to see who will advance. Maybe they should play a lot less games so every game means more(This is what I like about the 16 game NFL season) I am no expert but man was that a fun game to watch...even if I watched in on the internet...stupid cable TV.

Who I want to win the world series from most to least....this has no basis in who will probably win. And yes it is who I want because after all it is all about me.

Twins...I am not a homer trust me. I am not even a serious twins fan but everone loves an underdog...and hates the Yankees
St. Louis...Hey there from the midwest and they have a chance to win
Colorado...I lived there..the stadium is cool and they are the comeback kids..never count them out.
Angels...Never get any respect with Dodgers in town.
Philly... Better then the rest
Dodger, Yankees, Boston....I put them all on an even playfield of teams I don't want to win
