Playoffs

[ZMovieman]

Now that the Cubs are out of it and the first round is over, I'm curious to see who people are pulling for. Obviously, there's an option if you could care less. And feel free to explain your choice.

Phillies in the AL (for obvious reasons) and the Red Sox in the AL. Screw the Rays bandwagon fans. They don't deserve to see a winner.

After the Cubs crapped the bed, I just can't watch anymore. Which is weird, because I could watch the NFL playoffs last year after the Titans lost and I always watch whatever bowl games are still going on if/when Tennessee loses theirs.

 

I don't really understand it.

They'll get their fair share of awesome teams for at least the next five years, so I sort of agree with this.

Maybe it was because the Cubs had the best team in the NL this year? Well, that and the fact that Tennessee winning their bowl game doesn't have any bearing on any other bowl games. As far as the Titans, I'm assuming you didn't have nearly the expectations for them as you had for the Cubs this year.

With the exception of 98 (when I was just happy they were there) that's how it is every year for me, though. In 2003, 2007 and this year once the Cubs were eliminated I couldn't get enough interest to watch anymore playoff baseball.

 

You may be right about the Vols, but even when I have high expectations for the Titans in the postseason (2002, 2003) and they fail, I can still watch and enjoy the rest of the playoffs.

 

It's weird.

[Cynosure]

Lets go Rays!

 

Except we all know it's going to be Manny vs RedSox and he's going to have a huge series and the LA market will now be Dodger's nation and everyone gets rich.

[Jehrico]

The only team I want to see win is Da Bears.

[JimSorgi]

I'm definitely rooting for the Rays just so I can laugh at the guy who told me you needed experience to win in the playoffs.

I was only able to watch a couple innings in all during today's NLCS game (a half inning here and there in between games of pool and It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia). I'll definitely watch the ALCS because there's no way the Cubs could be playing there, but with the NLCS, either result is going to tick me off. Obviously the Dodgers winning are going to tick me off but when Utley and Burrell hit those home runs, I wondered why the Cubs couldn't hit a couple balls that hard.

The Phillies.

 

They will piss of Met's fans.

 

Red Sox - Obviously not.

Rays - Fans can crawl back under a rock and let's see if they draw 25,000 next season.

Dodgers - MEH, just tired of Wildcard winners.

I didn't watch a single pitch last night - and I don't plan on going out of my way to do it. Instead, I watched Wake Forest beat Clemson.

 

I won't avoid watching the playoffs, I think there's just too much Cubs hangover left.

Dodgers didn't win the wild card, they just had like the 12th best record in the majors.
