Got fourth row seats for Big Blue Madness tomorrow night @ Rupp. I'm gonna be ready for the Hot Stove League come the first part of November though.
While you're there, tell Cal that I'm extremely disappointed in the #4 ranking and think he should start looking over his shoulder. And pay that Wiggins kid to reclass and come in '13. Thanks.

Answering this question now is like going to the grocery when you're starving. Don't do it! Give yourself time.

I won't watch anywhere near as much as I have been or I would have had the home town nine kept playing, but I will watch.

I know many people who will, but just as I no longer watch the NCAA tourney once my team is out, I won't watch baseball eaither. Frankly, kind of opens up some time that I otherwise spent watching games when I should have been doing something productive. Unlike now.

Of course, I'll continue to watch, because after that, it's frickin winter time.

Spring training starts in 4 months...

As long as theres still baseball left to be played, I'll be watching

Amen.

Why any baseball fan would chose to not want baseball is beyond me.

I'll be watching the rest of the playoffs and the WS all the way through. I'll also be following the playoffs that have just begun in Japan for the NPB. In November there will be baseball being played in Japan and Panama as teams look to qualify for the 2013 World Baseball Classic AND the Australian Baseball League gets under way.

I'm following baseball almost all the way to spring training next year!

Yep, because it is the best game out there, it's not like the back n forth games, it's magical and it has the best story lines, it's played by humans not super humans who spend hours in the gym to have bodies that 99.8% of the population don't have. It's richer in history than all the other major sports combined, it's a game that I can still talk to my father about (and his interest in sports is small) its the game that paved the way for all the NFLs and NBAs and College sports mania.

It's the best game out there bar none

Re: Are you going to continue to watch the playoffs? (poll)

Too painful to watch the LCS, that's for sure. Won't be able to get past the envy and disappointment. One of the seven deadly sins, I know....consider me guilty.

Once the WS rolls around, I'll probably be at a point where I can watch, but won't go out of my way to do so.

Let's put it this way...had the Reds won yesterday, I would be GLUED to the Nats-Cards game right now. But as it stands, I've checked the score a few times just in hopes that STL loses, but haven't watched a pitch.

Re: Are you going to continue to watch the playoffs? (poll)

I will because it'll be on the tv at work. But I don't care any more, I can't stand all parties involved at this point. I think the Giants would be the lesser of 4 evils, so I guess I'll root against them the least.

Re: Are you going to continue to watch the playoffs? (poll)

Just deleted the MLB app from my phone and iPad.

Bud Selig has managed to further ruin the greatest game in the world. Absolutely no need for a second wild card team. It disgusts me that a team as pathetically mediocre and poorly put together as the Cardinals now have a real chance of being back to back champs.

I will always love the game, but the way that a father loves his child that has become a homeless drug addict.
