World Series Prediction
If the Padres had made the World Series, the games may have had to be moved due to wildfires. However, since the Rockies made it, now the games might have to be moved because of snow. That's about as polar opposite as it gets. And with it being mid-fall here in New England, I'm going to predict a multitude of beanie hats in the dugouts and at least one pitcher getting a balk called for blowing into his hand on the mound. Hopefully that pitcher is Eric Gagne or Josh Beckett in a pivotal moment.
As for who I'm rooting for, I'm a little uneasy pulling for a team that's only been in existence for 15 years, but that pales in comparison to having to root for a team of low-life, big mouth, showboating crybabies (except for Ellsbury and Drew). I don't know if I can stomach another Papelbon jig or Dustin "the baldest 24-year-old in the majors" Pedroia Bret Boone bat flip or Youkilis spaz attack. So get ready for the Rox vs. the Sox tonight on Fox, and I'm picking the Rox in six only because I get excited typing all these Xs.
