Predict the 2009 World Series winner

[Supergirl]

Who do you think will win it all?

[Supergirl]

Why won't this forum let me do a poll with more than two options? LAME.

Anyway, I'm sticking with my Red Sox, who will lock up the AL Wild Card and win it all...

[rjv]

phillies repeat with a win over the yankees.

[Betsy]

The Yankees!!!! :ihit

[Spursfan092120]

Texas Rangers, baby. :D

[IronMexican]

I'm pulling for anyone not the Yankees or Sawx.

[EricB]

Phillies in 6 over the Yankees in the WS.

[Texas Chili Dog]

Texas Rangers, baby. :D

this :hat

[Jimcs50]

Red Sox for sure.

They are getting healthy and wth addition of Billy Wagner, their bullpen is second to none.

[stretch]

1. Rangers

2. Sox

[manufan10]

Texas Rangers, baby. :D

I hope so.

[DBryant88]

Pittsburgh Pirates!!!:toast

[Betsy]

I am rooting for Yankees stud. :lol
But I have the terrible feeling it will take all 7. :bang

[Betsy]

Red Sox for sure.

They are getting healthy and wth addition of Billy Wagner, their bullpen is second to none.

Jim no way! I hate the blacksox :p:

[EricB]

Red Sox for sure.

They are getting healthy and wth addition of Billy Wagner, their bullpen is second to none.

Is this the same bullpen that blows games regularly?

And with what hitting?

[Extra Stout]

Red Sox fans have become so unbearably obnoxious that the Yankees, amazingly, are now the lesser of two evils.

[DBryant88]

so we can't obnoxious to yankee fans for a few years even though they were just as obnoxious to us the last century?

[EricB]

WTF??!?!?! :lol

[resistanze]

WTF??!?!?! :lol
so we can't be obnoxious to yankee fans for a few years even though they were just as obnoxious to us the last century?

The thing is, Red Sox fans have become obnoxious to everyone, not just to Yankee fans.

Why thankyou.

I thought I was the only one who started thinking like this. When I start rooting for the Yankees over any team, something is wrong.


I'll go with a homer pick and say Dodgers vs Yanks.

[JamStone]

I'm gonna predict the Giants to take the NL wild card and make a crazy run in the playoffs based on their starting pitching. And, then they surprise everyone and beat the Yankees.

But, I'm hoping the Tigers make an unexpected run and beat the Cardinals.

Hit it to the pitcher :spin

[crc21209]

I've been a Sox fan for awhile now so I would hope that maybe they can pull it off, but that starting pitching rotation is starting to look rather shaky right now. Beckett, who is supposed to be the Ace is just not himself. Lester and Bucholz have carried them lately, and then after them we have Wakefield who can't stay healthy for worth a damn, Dice-K who's rehabbing, and Paul Byrd. :lol. If the Sox can't win it all I'm going for the Rockies (who are comin' on up), or the Phillies to take it all again. Anyone but the fucking Yankees. :flipoff

The Giants are 3 back in the Wildcard to the Rockies, and I'm not too sure that they'll catch them.

[dallaskd]

Rangers over Cardinals in 7, maybe 6.

Hoooooomer. :lol

will you still be laughing when it happens?

[crc21209]

You gotta be kidding, man. :lol

[Texas Chili Dog]

You gotta be kidding, man. :lol

He is...

the Rangers will beat the DODGERS in the World Series...

[KSeal]

I think this is the year the Angels break through against the Red Sox, Kazmir trade was huge for them. Angels vs. Cardinals, Angels win the WS in 6. I wish I could put my Dodgers in the WS but I don't see how they're going to beat the Cardinals.

[Condemned 2 HelLA]

I said it last year and I'll say it again this year:
Angels and Phillies.
Angels in 6.

[dallaskd]

Kazmir has been trash this season. The Rangers have the Cy Young, the best young reliever in baseball, and the MVP on their team.

[KSeal]

Kazmir has been trash this season.

Not in his last six starts and his first two with the Angels, plus he's really good against the Red Sox and Yankees which obviously helps them come playoff time.

Not sold on the Angels just yet, once a Playoff choker...always a Playoff choker.

[KSeal]

Yeah, I'm fine with that opinion. I mean the Red Sox have owned them every post season so I can understand your train of thought. But just from watching them past years and this year and seeing everything they've gone through this year and how they've responded I just think this is the year they finally break through, I could be totally wrong but that's just the feeling I get. I wish I felt the same about the Dodgers :depressed

[symple19]

LOL, the Rangers won't even make the playoffs. If they do they're out in the first round.

I'm going to go with St. Louis/NYY, with the Cards taking it all.

I'm a Giants fan, but they're tanking. Wish I could pick them but I just can't---Would be nice though.

from your finger tips and keyboard to god's ear.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

I don't see how anyone beats the Yankees this year......same thing I said in 2006.

Hopefully they keep finding ways to lose. CC Sabathia is a huge choker, so that's a good sign.

CC, Arod, Teixiera, Matsui,

New York has lots of stiffs in the postseason.

If its New York Boston in the first round I bet Boston wins.

Boston Anaheim in the ALCS? :lol

Revenge for 2004!!! :)

You can't play division opponents in the first round, a good rule.

Other than the famous game 7 slam, Johnny Damon is an October scrub.
Jeter really hasn't been anything special in the playoffs since 2001. The assumed playoff success he'll have this year is based more off reputation than anything else.

True....Teixiera, A-Rod, CC, Matsui, Jeter...all of them tend to dissapear come playoff time.

[symple19]

And thank goodness for that. The Evil-Empire deserves all the heartbreak they can get. As ridiculous as BoSox fans have become, their team is still a veteran led bunch that seems to have some team unity. I'll pull for Boston over NYY any day. Besides, I think the ALCS will be Anaheim/NYY. We won't get to see another BOS/NYY matchup this year.

[45 bank shot]

the yankees for sho

[chode_regulator]

astros vs braves
astros win it all

Yanks still have that curse to break DOK. They haven't won a playoff series since 2004 against the Twins. Since then, Boston has cursed them. I wouldn't be shocked to see the Yanks out in the first round yet again. Great regular season team, but they have more playoff stiffs than performers. Boston isn't going anywhere either.

Yeah unfortunately I don't see Boston making any noise in the playoffs. I'm actually surprised they've managed to put together such a good season.

Everytime NY makes the playoffs though, I'm scared their team actually gels and peaks at the right time.

True...since 04' when the Yanks HAVE made the Playoffs...they have failed horribly.

:toast I agree with you.
Yankees and Dodgers would be great world series! :ihit

[holcs50]

Oh god, i mean yea it would prob be entertaining but I hate both teams with a passion. I hope the angels pull it off and finally beat the red sox in a series.

[EricB]

No thanks, the media fawning over New York and LA is already at a disgusting all time high as it is...

[bostonguy]

If it's Yanks/Dodgers, im getting my Mannywood shirt and sporting it for that entire series.

[bostonguy]

Lets hope the Yanks don't make it that far though. I want the Boston curse to keep on living.

[iggypop123]

if the dodgers make the world series those weak fly balls loney hits will be bombs in Ny

[JudynTX]

Phillies repeat.

[LakasRool4eva]

My Yanks got this. No sweet.

[gaKNOW!blee]

My Yanks got this. No sweet.

this has to be a troll no?

Yankees/Lakers fan?

[IronMexican]

I'm pretty sure it's a troll.

[Heath Ledger]

Phil Ivey.

[lefty]

Philly for the repeat

[JudynTX]

Phillies repeat.


Philly for the repeat

:tu

[symple19]

Phil Ivey.

:lol

[iggypop123]

yankees got this now.

[Banzai]

Philly...they have been clutch against the Rockies..and Dodgers...not sure how a series will play out against the Yankees though.
