Default World Series

As disappointed as I am about the Red Sox being knocked out, I am still planning on watching the World Series. I would like to see Phili win it as they historically are bigger losers than the Rays. Your thoughts?

I guess the Rays since I pull for the underdog in most cases and they were in last place last year. "Cinderella Story" and all.

Hoping for the Rays since there has always been bad blood between Boston and Philly teams.

Lemme just say I am so happy that the red sox and yankees are both out of it.

It is time that both teams faded into oblivion for awhile lol... I bet the Yankees will, but the red sox will probably stay a top tier team for awhile...

In this series I would route for the phils. I think they have earned it and I love an underdog. Plus I want the NL to win...but I won't be sad if either of them win!

I really don't care who wins it all, I just hope it is a competitive and exciting Series. I guess if I were forced to pick I would go with the Rays because of the "Rayhawks".

Being a big baseball fan and seeing this thread, I had all kinds of things to say but you summed it up PERFECTLY here in far less words than I could ever condense my post to so I'll just stop now.

I was hoping for the drama of Manny Ramirez Vs. The Dodgers.

Philles Vs. Rays? I don't really care, and doubt I will watch any of the Series until one team has 3 wins.

They will keep the Tampa area's streak alive of beating Philly teams on the way to a championship.

Thanks for the well wishes!

My best friend is down in Argentina, teaching and just saw this. He's converted the whole town to a bunch of die hards.

Go Phils!

Going to be at the latter half of the parade tomorrow.

Congrats Phillies and their fans from a Rays fan. They deserved it. They sure outplayed the Rays. Still an awesome year for my guys.
