I have the sad story to spin of being a life long Angels fan. Born and raised here in S. Orange County. Once again, we aren't going to the show but that hasn't stopped me from seeing some great games this year.

I think the M's have a strong chance this year. No, they don't have the experience but they have heart and fire.

My wife to be was born and raised in Queens, NY so she loves the Mets. Strangely enough, at least for a New Yorker, she also likes the Yank's. (apparently New Yorkers have some law wherein they must love one team and hate the other) Unfortunately, the Mets aren't gonna do it this year. I also don't think the Yanks will either.

Hopefully it will be an exciting World Series.

John Stevens, I sure do remember that game. I remember stop watching that game because of the score but when I found out the result, I was so pissed......However, Seattle won that series like they do all the time. GO M's!!

I guess that's why there is that saying about winning a battle and not the war. I give the Mariner's credit, they have a great team. I will remind you that the '54 Indians held the record for the winningest team in all of baseball, but were swept in the series. Just something for you to think about.

Dodger fan, but things have not been going well for the blue crew lately.

I'm really excited for the Mariner's. I've been following Ichiro's exploits closely this year.

I'm a Rangers fan; I just wish they had a some pitching (They did beat the Yankees last night, however (miracles still do happen!).

Going to the Yanks - Rangers game tonight. Glad I didn't go last night! Bad outing for the Pinstripers.

Dodgers and Angels fan since I've first been watching baseball.

Seattle has to be the most fun team to watch though. Their pitching team is just amazing. Hopefully my Aaron Sele rookie card will go up in price, haha.

Also, I think Ichiro was the first baseball player who actually got me to watch a different baseball game than my precious Dodgers and Angels. He really is amazing. No other player has caught my eye like he did.
