Poll question: Who Will Win The World Series, And In How Many Games??
Edited on Sat Oct-22-05 11:34 PM by mermaid
Just wanna see what the thinking is out there.

Me, I wish BOTH teams could win it...as a 34-year fan of the White Sox, and a 20-year fan of the Astros, my dilemma is...who the FUCK do I root for??

In the end, I been a Sox fan longer. But it's hard to root against the 'Stros, for me.

Shit, if I were a betting girl, I'd say Chicago in six, but I want to see a seven-game Series, all of them close, meybe even extra innings on the seventh game...no blowouts...so that, in the end, both teams can hold their heads up high and proud!

Either way, ONE team I love will be World Champs...gotta love it!! :D

1. Add another selection, please: "Who gives a shit?"
:hi:

Not me.

2. My Poll
No, I will NOT add such a selection. Far as I am concerned, if you don't care, you can refrain from posting here.

This is my ultimate dream-come-true postseason...so you can shove it.

Just because your teams didn't make it, you don't care? Tough crap! High time one of my teams made it! All the better, because, this year, BOTH of my teams made it.

My vote went for "I wish they could BOTH win" But my head says Chicago in six.

3. Believe it or not, I didn't mean to offend.
I don't have a team, so they couldn't make it anyway. (Well, okay, I like the Seattle Mariners, so of COURSE I'll never see THEM in the World Series).

Anyway, I was just having a humorous little poke. I'm sorry it sounded seriously offensive.

Friends? :dunce:

4. Fair Enough
I'll accept the apology. But you DID offend.

My heart is so much into this, I cannot IMAGINE anyone not caring!!

My GOD...the first time IN MY LIFETIME that either team I love gets into the Series, AND THEY BOTH DO IT IN THE SAME YEAR!!!

Can you imagine my dilemma??

I mean, sincerely...who the FUCK do I root for here??

Been a fan of BOTH teams for 20 plus years!!

Born a native South Sider (Chicago) I'm a Sox fan for all my 34 years.
Transplanted to Texas as a teenager, I'm a 20-year Astro fan!

Here, now...both teams have won their first pennants IN MY LIFETIME!!

I have NEVER seen either team win one. And so they both go and do it in the same year...gotta love it!!

Hell, either way, ONE team I love will be World Champs!!

6. Oh, I Will Be, Thanks!
Like I said, being a long-time fan of both teams, I'll be happy whichever one wins.
