I'll take the Dodgers winning. I don't know too many of their fans and another RS win would be awful. Sure wish Milwaukee had won though. I like it when the small market teams win.

At least Milwaukee fans have had lots of success with the Packers over the years.

Always root against the Red Sox and Yankees is my motto.

Yep! Been that way since 2004. I thought the RS finally winning would be therapeutic for that fan base but that combined with their football team makes NE sports fans my least favorite of any region.

It's tough to comprehend how anyone who has spent any amount of time around Boston fans (especially the kind that aren't from Boston), could root for the Red Sox in the world series.

I hope Manny hits 5 bombs in Fenway Park and grabs his crotch towards the stands for each and every one.

Winning the World Series just enabled Red Sox fans to behave like entitled monsters.

I put the Dodgers in the same category as Boston and the Yankees.

While they are in the NL, they are still a high dollar club that likes buy the top talent and buy championships.

“Manny, very quickly, is going to be described as evil now,” Buck Showalter, Machado’s former manager with Baltimore, told The Athletic. “It’s very easy to just go with the flow instead of think for yourself.

Quote

As Machado retreated to first base, he appeared to grab at his groin while staring down the home crowd. When Cody Bellinger followed with a two-run blast, Machado leapt into the air and pounded his chest. When Yasiel Puig added a double, Machado and Puig simultaneously chopped at their own crotches, their testicular fortitude showing as a rebuff to a similar act from Milwaukee’s Jesús Aguilar directed at Puig in Game 6.

“That’s Puigy’s thing,” Machado said of the gesture in question.

Quote

His free agency has already effectively begun — reached by phone, Showalter said he’s been in contact with several clubs inquiring on Machado the player and, most importantly, the person.

Quote

When the Dodgers first traded for Machado in July, Ward and several of the Dodgers coaches called mutual friends on the Orioles staff, who all had the same nickname for the skilled shortstop: Snow Leopard.

“He’s a rare species,” Ward said. “He’s a rare species at the plate, the arm that he has in the field, the instincts that he has and the different things that he can do at the plate. When he’s ready, he really is, and what he brings to this team is another level.

I don't really care which team wins the series. I'll be rooting for Manny and Pearce to do well.

So Manny is a better person than Thome.

Maybe he is. Unless you know these guys personally, who’s to say who’s the better person?
