The World Series Poll

[Sandman]

Who will win?

Philadelphia Phillies vs. Tampa Bay Rays

I predict the Rays with a sweep.

[Radioguy9698]

Biscuits will sop up the phillies 3-2

[Troggles]

I got Rays in six. I can't see them sweeping the Phillies.

[KingGorilla]

I want Tampa to win...more to the point, I want Philly to lose. For the same reasons I wished the Cubs and Boston to lose, their fans are jackasses. People in Philly booed Santa.

[Rock Bandit]

Phillies in 6.

And to be fair KG, the Santa in question was drunk off his ass. I would of booed him too.

And for disclosure as I seem to be the only one picking Philly so far, I'm an Orioles fan. I just think Philly has the stronger bullpen and that's going to be the deciding factor.

[Suave Peanut]

Vote #2 for Phillies here

I don't know the real odds, but I know it's about time we bring another championship back to Philly!

[Gorvi]

I'm not in any way a fan of baseball, but I've got to root for the home team. The Rays have sucked since the franchise started, it'd be nice to see them win it.

[Zero]

I voted for Tampa out of spite. They already avenged the Angels, and now I hope they avenge the Dodgers.

[Shrinn]

I think Philly will take it in six.

[rein]

I will go with the Rays. *uckers!

[rinichanraar]

I think it's going to be the D-Rays in six.

I mean, the "Rays" in six. I can't stop calling them the Devil Rays, even now.

[Mdot]

Rays in 5 or 6. Hamels will win a game, but Tampa is riding high.

[Khrymsyn]

Rays have sucked since the franchinse started?! what? 10 years ago?

Phillies have sucked since the 1800s. 10,000+ losses for that franchise. Now THAT is a pathetic team history =P

I think both teams have good hitting (expecially if Utley and Howard can wake up). The Rays have better starting pitching, but the Phils have a hell of a good bullpen.

I'm going for the Phils. Why? Rays haven't been around long enough to complain about "sucking", I'm a Philadelphia sports fan, and damnit, it's not like the Eagles or Flyers are doing any good right now =P

[Zagrash]

I want very badly for Tampa to win. I wanted the White Sox to win, but in lieu of them, I'd really like to see the Rays do it, if nothing else so I can further mock all of the Cubs fans =)

[maharahaj]

Phillies in 6 games. Our bull pen and hitters are strong. Its the starting pitchers (who can be off or on from day to day) that worry me the most.

-I'll be at game 4 suckers!-

[Kielaran]

I have to go with Philly. Baseball is the only sport as a Pittsburgher that I could even imagine to root for Philly (look at the Pirates...it's so bad it hurts), so I will while I can. At least until my full hatred for the Fliers takes control of my body.

[MalReynolds]

go Tampa go

[maharahaj]

AMAZING game! Phillies win! I have never seen a 5 man infield lineup in my life. What a finish.

[Johan]

Where's the "boring as hell small-market matchup" option? :D

[rinichanraar]

Ugh, another Philly win! Oh, well.

AMAZING game! Phillies win! I have never seen a 5 man infield lineup in my life. What a finish.

I've seen it quite a few times during really crucial moments in games. It's always pretty exciting whenever it happens.

[Everyone vs Dinosaurs]

My Phillies will obviously win!


(Although I don't care either way :D)

[maharahaj]

I just got back from the game and it was beyond awesome. Two homers by Howard and pitcher Joe Blanton hit one too! First pitcher to hit a World Series homer in like 35 years or something. On a sad note, I lost my ticket stub and all the free souveniers they were giving out (rally towels and commemorative coins) were gone by the time we rolled in, so I have no physical trinket to remember the event.

[Sandman]

I still think the Rays can pull it off but they need better pitching from their bullpen.

[carnage11]

Who will win?

Philadelphia Phillies vs. Tampa Bay Rays

I predict the Rays with a sweep.

Hmm....thus far it looks like you couldn't have been any more wrong.



I want Tampa to win, just because I live in Florida, and don't care for the Phillies, but I don't see it happening.

[Johan]

I still think the Rays can pull it off but they need better pitching from their bullpen.

Down 3-1 and you still believe? That is faith! :)

[rinichanraar]

Nah, he wouldnt've been any more wrong if the Phillies had swept. But they didn't. (Thankfully.)

[pseudopseudo]

I think it's going to be the D-Rays in six.

I'm just now noting the name change - when the hell did that happen?

This reminds me of one of my favorite Onion articles - a nice short one about the name change here (http://www.theonion.com/content/news_briefs/tampa_bay_devil_rays_change).

Rain delayed yet another day. And a new episode of House, even though it was supposed to be next week's episode.

[Rock Bandit]

Phillies in 6.

Self high-five!

[maharahaj]

Ah! My team finally did it. It's been a long year but it was so worth it. We had the bats and the bull pen to lock it up.

[Suave Peanut]

w00t! Wish I could be in Philly tonight celebrating with my friends!

[Banacek]

w00t! Wish I could be in Philly tonight celebrating with my friends!

Me too. God, I've never had one of my teams win it all! It's a great feeling!
