Don't get me wrong, having an underdog come up and beat the big dynasty can be sweet, but it seems like it happens too much lately, and again I would like to see the two best teams in the league going at it. When the teams in the World Series are both on the caliber of St. Louis and New York, there are more name-brand players and it is usually matched up better.

I mean last year the Marlins beat the Yankees, it makes for a good story but the series wasn't really that exciting and we weren't familiar with a lot of the Marlins players. The same thing goes with the Angels the year before.

There are always the perennial Cubs and Red Sox threats to break their respective curses, but I just don't like that happening this year. 1 it came so close last year that it wouldn't really have the same effect as this year, 2 both teams have huge star studded lineups this year but neither seems to play the role of a really good team or the underdog. The Cubs players are too good to be underdogs and thats the position they will be coming in at, last year was the year, I don't care about that story anymore.

So what do you think? It would probably be really great for baseball if the Twins or A's beat out the Yankees to make the World Series, but for the majority of the nation those games just wouldn't be as intense as the two power of baseball this year going at it.

Sorry I made a new thread, we can alter this one later to be a playoff thread or something, but I thought this deserved its own thread.
