ChosenOne Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Philadelphia Phillies were my pick from the start, this year and last they will win it again. I am betting the same person the same ammount again ($120), he is going to be pissed if he loses again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted October 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 (edited) Congrats to both teams for making it, this should be one of the best world series' in recent history. I agree. If I were a neutral fan, I'd be super excited for this series. And obviously being a Phillies fan, I cannot wait for it. For pitching matchups, we already know that the Yankees will go Sabathia, Burnett, Pettitte, Sabathia, Burnett, Pettitte, Sabathia. Unclear what the Phillies will do, other than the fact that Cliff Lee will pitch game 1. I think it would be awesome to see Pedro Martinez pitch game 2 at Yankee Stadium, however.

Legacy Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 [expletive] the Yankees. Go Phillies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfish Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 To the Phillies fans, I hope you guys win. You guys are a rowdy bunch. And im sure some of you agree with my opinion on the Yankees as well. Would be quite interesting to see you guys do it 2 straight, a franchise that is due for it and deserves it. And Phillies fans for the most part have been classy so far imo. I definitely think you guys will win. You arent going to beat yourselves, and have players with toughness and ability to get clutch hits like Werth, Howard, Rollins, ugh what a lineup. Cliff Lee and Hamels have shut down stuff and can handle the Yankees lineup. Honestly we had no bussiness being in this series, we pretty much handed the series to the Yankees on a platter and they should have swept us honestly. I know you guys wont do that, and will put so much pressure on the Yankees. Hope you guys win, Go Philly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted October 26, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 This will be more of a biased guess than anything else, but I'm taking New York in six. It's really more because A-Rod has been my second favorite player for years now, ever since the Mariners took him, and I've honestly stopped watching baseball as a fan after Griffey went down due to that devastating injury. It's funny. I used to know everything about baseball, in the 90's. Now I know everything about basketball, quite a bit about football, and just a little about baseball. This postseason may have been the first I've actually watched, all the way through, since 2003. Sabathia has been fire, though, and I trust in Mariano to close out games. I don't believe he has given up a run yet in the postseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSUBucksfan09 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 As a braves and white sox fan this world series makes me puke.I won't watch it cause honestly i hate both teams and just don't care enough to waste my time watching it.

"Who's your daddy!" those series' were awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Should be a great series and I can't wait to see CC vs. Lee on Wednesday. I like that Yanks in 5-6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted October 26, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 What a surprise. First time Yankees are in the World Series since 2003 as well.I didn't like the Yankees in 2003. What an idiotic post based on the fact that I just don't want your Phillies to win the series. Alex went to New York in 2004. Big fail on your part...again.

Brand New Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Have to jump on the Yankee bandwagon this time, but I won't watch any of the games. Basketball season is upon us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Next Knick Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 The first time since I was in elementary school that the Yanks have made the series, super hyped. I hope Waldo, Brandon and I can hold down all of you Philly supporters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phightins Posted October 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Charlie still will not commit to anything beyond his game 1 starter, although it does look like Raul Ibanez will DH and Ben Francisco will play left field for the games in New York, as expected.

Cobb Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Don't plan on watching much of this World Series. Two teams that I don't find fun to watch. I hope the Phillies win it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
