I kinda agree. Love when he was getting an attitude with reporters and he called them "retards" or something and the reporter asked, "How do you spell that?"

My favorite Brett Myers memory is when he punched his wife in the face and dragged her down the street in front of a Boston hotel. He of course, pitched the next day and in the end the Phillies did nothing about it because he had a 3.77 ERA at the time of the incident.

The Rays will lose one because of the exhaustion of the Red Sox series and the Phillies will win one because they aren't a bad squad. Overall, it should be a pretty good series to watch, but Rays in six as they'll clinch at Tropicana Field. It's still the AL vs. the NL though, and I'd be shocked if the Rays don't take the crown.

I will be rooting for the Phillies, simply because Jamie Moyer is one of my favorite non-Sox players and he has not won a ring. Plus, I just can't root for the Rays (bandwagon fans, dome, cowbells, etc.). I generally don't root for the National League team, but I'm making an exception this year.

Same can be said for the whitesox by outsiders. Anyways Im an AL fan and since its not the redsox/yankees Im rooting for the Rays. I prob wont spend too much time watching the games though that being said.

TB in 6 or 7

Ratings be damned, this should be a very fun series to watch.

As a Sox fan, I always root for the under dog or the unpopular team. Go rays.

I secretly root for the Royals and Nats too. :ph34r:

Go Rays!!!

This should be a fun WS, no doubt. That said, I'm rooting for the Phillies. They've won it only once in their entire history.

I love the Fall and especially the Fall Classic. Every year, following a weekend afternoon outside raking leaves, I make a big pot of chili that I start in on during the late football games and nosh on throughout the Series. Keeping with tradition, I'll be rooting for the AL team with my windows open. Rays in six.

The Backstreet Boys? WTF?

 

Weren't there 5?

For some reason I can see the Rays in 5.

 

Just like how many members the back street boys had before the one left.

Anyone know the music they played during the player introductions, especially the Phillies? I loved the song, but have no idea what it is called or if its even a song.

05 series moved so fast for me. I don't remember all the extra curicullar stuff.

Everytime I see Kazmir, I wanna ask Steve Phillips what Victor Zambrano is up to.

Poor Steve Phillips still being blamed for messes (and trades) that Jim Duquette made.

The pennies in the jars/cans and cowbells are annoying. Im glad chicago is above that crap and thundersticks

I really like the world series. 2-0 Phillies. Utley is awesome.

Was that Duquette? Could swear it was Phillips.

Yikes. 2 DPs for Upton. Never thought I would see that. Although that one was hit pretty hard.

Kazmir’s slider is ridiculous tonight.

Yes sir, Duquette it was.

I know it works and allows him to constantly square up the ball, but I hate Utley’s swing. I don’t know if it’s to handsy or something it just bothers me.

How do I get my taco?

Ratings be damned, this should be a very fun series to watch.

 

f*** the ratings. This is about BASEBALL HISTORY. Money and greed ruin everything.
