I'm gonna say Rockies vs Angels.

Why?

I have no idea.

Mostly because I don't think I have heard anyone else pick this matchup and I'm sick of hearing about every other team that is involved.

Yeah, pretty stupid.

And that is probably how it will turn out. In recent memory, it usually is one of the underdogs winning it all isn't it? Rockies are hot and that usually carries into the post season in baseball. Angels are a very solid team also.

The Yankees win only because God hates Johnny Rockets more

If by chance it is Yankees vs. Phillies in the world series...I believe game 4 would be in Philly on the same day the Eagles would be playing the Giants across the street. Would be awesome to be in Philly that day.

Road trip? Free meals and place to stay!

The stat geeks that come on the local sportstalker pretty well have it that once the postseason starts, you CAN indeed "throw out the records" when it comes to baseball.

The "best" teams don't always win, and it is something of a statistical crapshoot as to who gets to the WS and even who wins.

Homefield advantage is not particularily significant either.

Dunno, I just think it would be kinda funny if the Angels and Rocks get in, since every TV east of the big river will be tuned out.

And the New York/Boston contingent will be pouty.

I'm just SOOOO glad the Bears are playing ok, otherwise I'd be on suicide watch and/or heavily medicated.

Well I was gonna say the same exact thing.

Rockies may not get there, but I really think this is the Angels' year.

Pitching trumps everything else.

That's why I'm taking the only staff with 5 starters with 10+ wins this year.

Rockies

Vs

Red Sox

I think a healthy Wake, Beckett, Lester and Papelbon take down the Evil Empire.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
