It's simple--which ever team has the most runs at the end! Other than that I have no predictions. The sports world is littered with inaccurate predictions.
Let's see if I remember the stats.
The team that won the 1st game has gone on to win the last 12 of 13 World Series.
A word series team hasn't come back from a 3-1 deficit since the mid 80s.
But the Cubs seem to be on fire right now.
What a great series. Although I am not a particular fan of either team. I think the fans of each team have been treated to an epic battle it is so good that it will be decided in game 7 of 7. Both have not won for a long time. I will be bored when it is over. Having to endure 6 more days of political add crap then nothing to look forward to watching until spring other than some college ball which is difficult since I work most Saturday afternoons. The NFL and NBA are so stuck on themselves they have lost me as a viewer. The NBA lost me years ago and NFL in the last two years. They keep having to make the helmets bigger to fit the swelled heads of the overpaid. Baseball players make less money and play 162 games over 6 months not including post season or preseason. The NFL play 16 games over 17 weeks, the NBA plays 82 games over 26 weeks. Baseball averages more than 6 games per week, football one game per week, basketball averages a little over 3 games per week. Baseball is arguably the most difficult sport to master, try hitting a 2 3/4" ball thrown a 100 MPH with a 2 1/2" stick with the ball wriggling through the air. In football all you need be is big and willing to get concussions, basketball all you need to be is tall, Baseball requires you to be able to judge time speed and distance like a receiver, have stamina like a runner, have superb hand eye coordination like no other sport and you can't stall to run out the clock or tie. You play until there is a winner. Players from other sports have tries baseball and while they may do well they do not excel.
Baseball is the American game
Baseball moves too slow for the ADD, tweentard, immediate gratification generation infesting society this past decade. That is why the ratings are better.
Have to agree completely with TiredTraveler, though college sports are awesome -- they care so much!
After Cleveland spent the whole summer crapping on Golden State losing a 3-1 lead, it is only fitting that the Indians lost a 3-1 lead to another tortured franchise. Karma.
^^^^^^ No JimG, you are the one posting it, so it must be your idea.
You go ahead and do that if that's your thing. But I don't need to know about it.

There you have it folks! SJG has just admitted to everyone above that his true identity is Lloyd Schoene. Good work buddy. I knew you'd finally crack. Now that your psycho posts are out their for everyone to read about you, enjoy anonymity in San Jose for a while.
