I don't really have a horse in this race, but my boss at work is from Detroit, and while he's a "Tigers' fan"...he's not really. Bandwagonner at it's finest. And he rather eagerly rubbed it in my face that the Reds were out and "his Tigers" were in. I had to point it out to him that he wasn't even aware that they made the playoffs until I told him. Anyway, he rubbed it in my face yet again by telling me he was flying to Detroit because he got tickets to the Series. He was so confident because he was going to game one with Verlander. Well, we saw how THAT turned out. LOL. I haven't heard from him since. :O)
Congrats to the Giants. On to the off-season and preparing for a 2013 Reds title.
All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
Good one, Detroit.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Great story, mixed feelings about the Reds being part of it, but very happy for the Giants, they definitely earned it.

Could've beat any of these teams.
Ok, this stings again.
Game 3...
Like the overwhelming number of Americans I didn't watch a single pitch. I would bet that both the Broncos/Saints game and CNN's hurricane coverage absolutely blew Game 4 out of the ratings water.
Didn't watch very much of it, but from what I saw, the Giants are a very sound team with terrific pitching.
They should sign their manager up for ten years. Very fine manager.

This, uh ... this kinda sucks.
Hunter Pence is the most irritating dude in baseball.
Today is the saddest day of the year, the baseball season is finished.
sorry we're boring
