Yeah, while hockey playoffs are definitely more on-the-edge-of-your-seat than any other professional sport, it's all subjective. I just don't really like hockey as much as other sports, so I prefer baseball. But I still watch hockey as well in the post-season.Iliketurtles;1515437 wrote:I'm going to steal sonofanump's line and say... I would respectfully disagree. Hockey playoffs are the best.
Don't say that! Now that the Pirates are gone, Oakland is my only buffer from finding myself cheering for the Dodgers for the sole reason that they aren't the Cards, Tigers or Sox.Ironman92;1515722 wrote:Every team I rooted for in the 4 different divisional series has lost.

Looks like a Cardinals/Sox series (which will be really good)
Detroit is a megamarket team. The homegroew a few of those players but they signed a large part of that team. Their owner is a very rich man who spends very freely. You should root for them if you are trying for "small market".HitsRus;1515967 wrote:^^^Ugh...not me I'll have no problem rooting for Detroit or St. Louis over the megamarket teams.

We're definitely on the same page with this.ts1227;1516151 wrote:This (assuming DET holds on).
I could not give a shit from this point forward. The only team left of the 4 that I don't completely hate would be the Dodgers, I guess.
Ok...you convinced me....F*** the Tigers!Detroit $149,046,844
Playoff hockey is pretty damn spectacular and I would definitely prefer it if I wasn't a baseball guy. But there's something about the climactic nature of every pitch that appeals to me.Iliketurtles;1515437 wrote:I'm going to steal sonofanump's line and say... I would respectfully disagree.

When Verlander is on he pitches like he gets to do XYZ with Kate Upton after the game.....when Boston pitcher's pitch they act like when the game is over they have to do XYZ with with B.J. Upton after the game.#1DBag;1516878 wrote:I have determined it is acceptable for Detroit to win. Justin Verlander has more than likely did XYZ with Kate Upton in real life.
I like their manager, Ellsbury and their grit....but hate about everything else about them.HitsRus;1517031 wrote:Anybody else sick of looking at Boston's Amish length beards?
