Nope. and the Red Sox haven't won since 1918.

That would be something. Perpetual loser vs. near-perpetual loser ;)

I pick marlins for 2 reasons:
1) I'm a glutton for punichment
2) I'm from florida.
(Notice my 'phin fanism in posts on the board)
Those are the only reasons. Are they better than other teams? I don't know, I'm not really into baseball. But I know they got a cool mascot! >:)

Hmm, haven't watched much baseball lately while at school, but back at the beginning of the season, the Braves were looking really good.

Somebody will win, somebody will lose, and I will not give a shit because I'll be busy watching a real sport like football.

I say the Braves, but then again I'm probably hallunicating.

I say the Braves too.
I also don't think the Yankees will make it. Nick Johnson seems to have become the HUGE HUGE backbone for the Yankees while the other players seems to be struggling...well last I checked anyway. :P

Cyaround,

I would say the Phillies, but, as usual, they fucking blew the easiest fucking games. C'om! When you're up like EIGHT FUCKING RUNS, HOW CAN YOU FUCKING LOSE?

The Braves will fold up like a cheap card table, just like they do every year in the playoffs.
