Playoff Teams??

I'm interested to see who everyone's rooting for around here...I'm guessing that everyone wants the Rays to win but beyond that I have no idea.

I'm voting Rays, Red Sox, Brewers, Cubs.  Not a Sox fan, but I can't root for the angels.  Plus, seeing the Rays beat the Sox in the ALCS would be awesome.

I guess the text of poll options doesn't count towards this seventy-five word limit.  So I'll also say that a White Sox-Cubs world series would be cool for multiple reasons.  Go vote!!

Amen.

The road to hell is paved with Mariners.

This may be unpopular around here

and it’ll probably never happen, but I very, very badly want Ken Griffey to get to and win his first World Series. Turns out I’m a White Sox fan. Who knew?

I despise LA.

That knocks out two teams right there.

Rays, Angels, Brewers, Cubs.

Only rooting for the Angels because I think they’d be easier for the Rays to beat if they get to the ALCS

That's my pick too

I hate both the Angels and the Red Sox, so I have to default and go with the team that doesn’t have a bandwagon fanbase in every MLB city. The Red Sox deserve another 80 years of losing as far as I’m concerned. Also, the whole “root for your own division in the playoffs” thing plays a small part.

I want a Rays/Pilots World Series though.

I think the common theme is simple.

RAYS!!!!

All but 12 people voted for the Rays.

Now with 100% more Canuck.

I like to buck trends.

6 votes for "insufficient"!?

Still rooting for the Mariners?

Bring back José Cruz Jr!

The reason I voted

for the Rays, Red Sox, Brewers, Cubs, is besides the Mariners, I root for teams based on their players or their management style. I like the Rays, Red Sox and Brewers because I feel like their organizations do things right and I respect that. I like the Cubs because of the story and I hate the Dodgers. I would much rather have a smart organization win than a dumb/lucky/right pieces at the right time team like the Angels or White Sox win. Oh yeah, and Go RAYS!

Rays, Red Sox, Phillies, Dodgers

The Rays, obviously.

The Red Sox, because I hate the Angels.

The Phillies, because Matt Stairs.

The Dodgers, because success for the Cubs will make the mainstream media really annoying.

I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.
