Or at least, when I do, I lose. Badly.
I guess I could have done worse on my Division Series predictions, since I did get the Rays winning in 4 right. But the Angels, Brewers, and Cubs? Gah! Who knows, if the Angels could actually execute a squeeze play we may have been back to LA for Game 5. However, they couldn't, and now the Red Sox are back in the ALCS for the 4th time in the last 6th years. Gag me please.
So, who am I rooting for? Obviously the Rays in the ALCS. I'd love to see Tampa make it to the Series. As far as the NLCS, I'm not sure I'm rooting for anyone. However, if the Red Sox end up winning in the AL, than I really, really want the Dodgers to come out of the NL. There wouldn't be much better than Manny single handedly destroying the Red Sox at Fenway in the World Series. That would make me happy. However, since whatever I want to happen usually doesn't, here are my LCS picks:
ALCS: Boston over Tampa Bay in 6 games
NLCS: Philadelphia over Los Angeles in 7 games
I'll go with Phillies-Red Sox because Boston-LA would be too good with the Manny drama. Plus, as much as I'd like to see that, look at what the last 3 major sports title games would be if that happened.
NFL: Boston-New York. NBA- Boston-LA. MLB- Boston-LA.
Let's see some parity people!
Also, I'll have an O's related post up later today. Not a ton will be going on with them until the playoffs are over, but the Arizona Fall League started yesterday, and some of our best prospects are there (Wieters, Matusz, Snyder, Reimold, to name a few), so I'll be keeping you up to date on what's happening there. Also, already some rumors starting to fly around about Mark Teixeira, AJ Burnett, and Brian Roberts, so I'll get you up to date on those.
