Nice....it was stange to find myself rooting for the Giants this series. As a Dodger fan, it isn't natural. Btw, why is Lincecum a middle reliever now?

A Tiger v Giant series.

Very close to call I think, but pushed I'd have to say the Tigers...

Go giants. Tigers have too many nasty players. Would love to see Verlander get smacked.

Giants have the momentum going in coming from behind in this series. Tigers will be well rested though. We shall see. Can't say I'm gonna be glued to the tv, but should be hard fought series for both teams

I hope the Yankees win. That will be a far more interesting series than Cards/Tigers again.

Of course if the Tigers want to implode again during the WS I suppose that's fine.
someone counted their chickens early eh hoka?

Yeah I guess I will have to hope DET wins since being a Dodger fan I can not bring myself to root for them

I've never understood this mentality from A's fans. I've never met a Giants fan who doesn't like the A's or wouldn't root for them in the playoffs whereas I've met plenty of A's fans who have a irrational hate of the Giants.

When Zito gets a hit and RBI off of you, you know it's not your night

Even though I'm an A's fan, I'll root for any .... Panda just hit another HR :lolol:

As I was saying, I'll root for any Bay Area team when they are going for a championship

his legacy of sucking in the world series

nice start. i want to go to game 6 if there is one. i would love to see the giants win in 4 or 5 but i would be a little bummed i didn't get to go to a world series for the first time.
