    This World Series Is One Of The Worst I've Ever Seen

    It was just absolutely horrible from start to finish.

    won on every game except game 2, played philly in all of em.

    Agreed though, unless you bet on the game, or lived in philly or tampa, who gives a flying fuk

    i'd take an NCAA Final 4 over the series every day and twice on sunday

    Yeah I didnt even watch. I guess they handled it the best they could, but doesnt change the fact that it stole all the luster.

    I liked tonight's 3.5 inning thing a lot.

    I think they should make all games 3.5 innings in the future.

    I mainly watched hockey and soccer and checked in the WS every so often.

    I would have watched most of a game 6 and all of a game 7, but until that, who gives a crap?

    I watched the World Series Monday night until the rain delay. However, they should have never started that game under those weather conditions.

    Your telling me sir. Believe it or not it wasn't the teams involved, but rather all the elements surrounding it. The Umps, weather, Commissioner, ect, ect.

    Tropicana field is trash, and the weather made Phillie's park trash as well.

    It doesn't help when these series end in sweeps or 4-1. I think it's time they ditch the 2-3-2 format.

    This thread is funny.

    How many Super Bowls are a letdown?

    And please don't mention last year. I'm talking about a large sample size of Super Bowls.

    Will anybody remember these 2 teams played each other in the world series 2 years from now? People were starting to forget this series 1 hr after it ended.

    The way it ended was so anticlimactic, but I'd still rather watch a bad baseball game than anything the NFL or NBA has to offer.

    Just don't say anything bad about my Swedish women's curling team tsoprano. I've got the hots for Anna Svärd. Some cuties on the Canadian team as well, but Anna is a curling fantasy girl.
