Official WS prediction thread

[tzill]

Interesting comment by Chris Russo today:

The Rangers are not good at all in close games, they lost their close ones to both the Rays and the Spankees. They rely on beating you 7-2.

Russo says Giants in six.

Take the Giants in 6. 1W-2W-1W sequence. I also think that the WS may actually be a little calmer for me that the damn trip getting here. Just getting to the big stage makes me very happy. After winning the division I felt each step up would be a bonus. At least that was what I told myself. PHI was the turning point. After going up 3-1 I would have been crushed if we didn't make it to the WS. I wouldn't have been able to say "we had a good run and let's look to next year". Guess I could have used the NN rationale. We played way above our heads and now the reality has set in. This is what I really expected. FU NN!

I truly believe that this years team is a team of destiny. Almost every time they were backed to the wall they found a way out. The team actually reminds me of this board to some extent. A bunch of people thrown together who all of a sudden seem to have found a chemistry. In my younger days things like this were referred to as "lightening in a bottle". This has been a great ride and it' still not over .....

You're on a roll today SF11. Yup, we are a bunch of misfits and outcasts who have coalesced nicely ;-)~

The news article AND your response are classic tzill, if I may refer to myself in the third person. I put up a post on the Warriors board about a year ago, with a fictional "Casius Zic" suicide report....I wish I had bookmarked that as it's one of the favorite things I've ever written. The tito report above reminds me of that.

I remember that one. Classic. At least he isn't on the ESPN boards now. That would certainly be a case of the inmates running the asylum.

I disagree. Now that we can safely observe and pwn the bullshit from here, I wish there were MORE crazies there.

Cazic is a whole new batch of crazy. The repetitiveness is only rivaled by Tito. Baron Davis, Travis Ishikawa and hating Alex Smith. All Caz posts have been summed up.

Sports Illustrated's picks:

SI.com's 2010 World Series Experts' Picks, Giants or Rangers - MLB - SI.com

Pretty full spectrum of opinions there.

Giants in 5. Giants take first two, lose Game 3, win Games 4 and 5.

Hate to say it, guys, but I told you so.

Great job RoboTech

 

[Heathbar012]

That is impressive, Robo. Looks like everybody owes you a six-pack. .

 

[goDAWGSsicem]

I think the Giants will win.

 

[msgkings322]

I think the Giants will win AGAIN IN 2011.

There, fixed it for ya.

Thanks, but I'm not a genius. Our starting pitching is just so good. The only guy I didn't feel comfortable about was Jonathan Sanchez. If he were in his September form, I would have predicted a Giants sweep.

Fucking Sanchez. Sweep would have been cool.

yeah, that guy was trembling with fear -- I could see it in his eyes on my HDTV from my private jet as I winged my way from Hawaii with my parrot to Texas to take all 76 of my grandchildren to game 5.

LOL

The jet was total bullshit of course, but I'd be surprised if he was making up the story of going to game 5. Maybe so, not hard to do. Not like he posted any pics or anything.

Or that we'd be able to recognize his nellie ass if he did.

Fucker.
