Like about half of UC Eugene, I am from the Bay area, we hold it down up here. And the worst thing is the kids from Oregon who root for stupid teams like the Yankees cause they don't have any baseball from here to Seattle or the Bay

Thats the answer I was looking for....thanks for clarifing....after watching the past two days, i would like to change my World Series teams to LA vs. Oakland.....

Is it safe to say everyone that doesnt have a baseball team cheers for the Yankees so they can "root for a winner"?

I like the Yankees about as much as I like having the runs....

Rooting for the Yankees is like rooting for Ivan Drago in Rocky IV.

Excellent.

Normally I'm not too in to what the Mets are doing, but with Willie Randolph at the helm I'm rooting for a subway series.

My worst fears realized...nice job by the Tigers who played a TEAM game. The Yanks haven't done that since 2000.

The Cards are going to get hammered by the Mets.

Mets in 5. I'll give a win to Carpenter at home.

I think the Tigers are the team to beat. It doesn't matter who the NL winner is, they will be lucky to take a game...again.

Agree with all of that, but it is going to be the A's. But def the team coming from that series is going to take it easy, the NL is weak
