    Red Sox will win World Series

    You heard it here first.

    Dodgers will not win a game once Manny comes back.

    NYY will just shoot themselves in the foot.

    your a homer from boston- if it wasnt for the wild card and expanded playoff format would the red sox still be looking for a world series- i thought so

    yea that's because the Braves will finish below .500 and not be in the playoffs hence the redsox will not be able to beat them in the world series.

    Didn't realise that the current format is based upon the old format. Thanks for clarifying.

    Gotcha. So only Boston plays by the current rules, everyone else plays by the old rules. Thanks for clearing that up.

    More a fan of simple logic. But if the Red Sox can exploit the current rules when every other team is playing by the old rules then good luck to them.

    all i was saying was that until they went to the wild card format the red sox coudnt win shit forever. when they changed the game so dramatically it gave boston better odds then they ever had before.

    But they changed it and they won. They won within the rules (which are pretty fair rules considering the different strengths of different divisions). I don't see your point. Why not revert to the deal ball era and be done with it?

    i know they won fair and square im not disputing that. its like when they talk about the modern era and the old era in hockey. the red sox and even the white sox ended their sorry history in the wild card era- it took a fundamental change in the formats for boston to get out of their own asses. remember when so many people were against changing the format- i was one of them

    Exactly. They won fair and square.

    If teams from the previous rules couldn't beat the teams from the current rules than what does that tell you? The old rules were bullshit? Yes is the answer.

    Is Lakerfan really this stupid or is he just trying to piss people off. I hope for his sake it is the latter.
