10.06.18 | I would say the Brewers although not a traditional playoff team, are def. not the underdogs in the NL, best record in league, home field throughout |

My guy.
Not rooting for the Yanks tho? Aren't you a New Yorkian? |
Divaman
10.07.18 | Yeah, but a Mets fan. For most of my life, it would be fair to say that my favorite team is the Mets, and my second-favorite team is whoever is playing against the Yankees today. (For most New York baseball fans, it's one or the other.)
Oops, wait, did I just answer for you Steak? Are you a NYer too? (I also would like to see Brewers/Indians, but it doesn't look the Indians are going to make it unless they turn things around big time.) |

10.07.18 | "Not rooting for the Yanks tho? Aren't you a New Yorkian?"
I am a New Yorkian, but I've been a San Fran fan since like 2007 so I don't have any attachment to the Yanks lol |

10.07.18 | It's weird how the giants were the big bandwagon team just a few years ago and now they're nothing |
SteakByrnes
10.07.18 | I liked them because of Tim Lincecum, and then a couple years later they went on that tear of World Series wins which was awesome |
Source
10.07.18 | Yeah he was insane. I liked him because he was a local Bellevue kid. His prime was pretty short, but it was fun to watch |
SteakByrnes
10.07.18 | His Cy Young years were wild, dude was unstoppable for a short time. His 2010 playoff performance was phenomenal too, especially that 2 hit 14 K shut out of the Braves game 1 he pulled off. Really too bad that he went on such a sharp decline after 2012, he was my favorite player |

10.07.18 | @Divaman I was talking to Steak, but enjoyed your post anyway.
I had a brief period of being a San Fran fan as well (when I was younger, my favorite team would be whichever team Omar Vizquel was on). But now it's just Cleveland teams all the way because Ohio-pride and such. |
Divaman
10.07.18 | Understood. I think the whole Mets/Yankees thing is true for a lot of the cities where they have more than one team. My sense is that Cubs/White Sox fans are the same way.
I've mellowed a little over the last few years, because for awhile, my son said he was a Yankees fan, and I felt bad rooting against his team. But prior to that, I never wanted anything good to happen to the Yankees. |

10.07.18 | You win the good dad award. |

10.07.18 | I guess i wouldn't mind seeing the Indians get back to the world series. It seems like any world series involving them is good. The 1997 world series against the Marlins is the first world series I remember watching and it's one of my favorites |

10.07.18 | Titan bro a Brewer, Yanks series would be cool, old AL East matchup
lots of runs scored anyway |

10.16.18 | I wouldn't mind seeing the Astros in the Series again. I know they were in it last year, but historically they haven't made many appearances there. Same w/the Brewers - think they were only there once. Dodgers and Sox have been there way more often. |

it was bad enough that this year has had eagles vs. patriots and cavs vs. warriors |

10.18.18 | at this rate they should just dissolve the two NBA conferences into the LeBron James League and the Steph Curry All-Stars and just get straight to the Finals. |

10.18.18 | I love it when the patriots are in the super bowl because it's always a good game when they're in it. I'll admit the world series is always lame when the red sox are in it, but I like the red sox so |

10.21.18 | Oh well. Wasn't hoping for a Red Sox vs. Dodgers World Series, but it is what it is. As a National League fan, I'll be rooting for the Dodgers. Red Sox look like much the better team, though. Hope it will be a good series, at least. See you Tuesday. |

10.22.18 | Me either. But baseball is a funny game, so who knows? |
Demon of the Fall
10.22.18 | So where are the odds?... all I see are payouts in $$$
Confusing system. |
Sevengill
10.22.18 | sox are -135, dodgers are +115, which means you get $0.70 per dollar (actually $1 per $1.35) you wager on the sox, and $1.15 per dollar you wager on the dodgers. it's pretty convoluted. |
Sevengill
10.22.18 | but basically, if you get $1 for wagering $1, that would correlate to 50% odds. so vegas says the sox are ~15% more likely to win than the dodgers, I guess? |
Demon of the Fall
10.22.18 | Ah right I see. In the UK most sports betting odds (or odds in general actually) are simply shown as a fraction. |
