Aye, if it comes down to STL-NYY I won't be watching the World Series. Of the playoff field, that would be my nightmare WS matchup...unless Joe Buck's head explodes from trying to keep up with all the Jeter/Pujols worship. Still, that would be gross to actually watch (the head asplode). Phillies don't need it again; STL certainly doesn't; Dodgers...maybe, but it would turn into a Manny and Torre show; Rockies...I guess the least offensive to me overall, but given the competition that doesn't say much. Rock-tober was clever once. Yankees, HECK no; Red Sox, ditto; Twins/Tigers, yeah, either. Frankly, Michigan could probably use the emotional distraction. Angels...I'd be OK with this. The Nick Adenhart angle is the tiebreaker for me. In past years I've tried to live vicariously through people I know who are fans of the teams in the playoffs. Having had a taste of "the real thing" last year, though, I don't want to go back to that method.
