It has been almost 23 years since that team sniffed the playoffs They clearly played their hearts out there...good luck to them!
Ryan Braun is a stud. CC Sabathia is a beast. That's all I'll say before my head is called for by Mets fans.
I'm going to be rooting for them. Seriously. They deserve to be there a lot more than the Mets do. The Dodgers are insufferable. The Cubs are going to be as annoying as the Red Sox and Yankees fans if they win. Phillies swear word expletive something. Brewers vs. Rays would be an awesome series. Sabathia v. Kazmir, Longoria and Pena against Braun and Fielder. A lot of dynamic young talent. Go Brew Crew.
I can't support the Phillies, or an AL team. The Dodgers are managed by Joe Torre and have Manny and Nomar and a bunch of other unlikeable assholes. The Cubs piss me off. The Brewers... damnit, I'm so bitter and jealous, but their old school logo is my favorite. I even have an authentic throwback Brewers hat, which I had been wearing daily up until the Mets wild card lead was two games, then I went hatless. But really, I don't think I can find a rooting interest here. I'm a bit too bitter for the Brewers, and I really hate Craig Counsell, and the only legit option is the Rays, but they're an AL team, and AL doesn't play baseball. Go Rangers! (and Jets, I guess)
I don't have any ill-will towards the Brewers; they won their way into the postseason, something the Mets have proven they lack the mettle to do.
Yeah...A Brewers-Rays World Series would be EXCITING! So many talented players under the age of 30...Would make for a great series. :beer: I honestly think the best series would be the Cubs-Rays for the simple fact...Those Cub fans deserve to see that team in the world series now call me crazy...But I see the Phillies as the team to beat in the NL, that team is dangerious and I can really see them making some noise.
I'm stunned that Sabathia's agent is allowing him to go out every three days. If his arm blows out his big FA money is gone. Anyhow, f*** the Brewers. Go Cubs.
