Baseball

[drydem]

In honor of the Red Sox brilliant ALCS victory, I hereby present my ranking of baseball teams. The way this works is that in a match between two teams, whichever one is higher ranked will be the one I am rooting for.

1.Phillies(my hometown team)
2.White Sox(my other hometown team)
3.Red Sox(a noble team from the home of my step-father)
4.Cubs(I root for the underdog)
5.Pirates(right state)
6.A's(former Philadelphia team)
--end of first tier--
7.Giants
8.Expos(may change when they are in D.C. I like them as Canadian)
9.Marlins(even as rivals, I respect them)
10.Mets
11.Tigers(again, the underdog)
12.Brewers
13.Twins
14.Rockies(I like purple)
15.Padres
16.Blue Jays(Canada again)
--end of second tier--
17.Dodgers
18.Devil Rays(would be lower, but I pity them their division)
19.Mariners(I like Seattle)
20.Orioles(would be higher, but 1983)
21.Reds(the fall of Pete Rose)
22.Diamondbacks
23.Astros(from Texas)
24.Angels
25.Royals(rivals in 1980)
--end of third tier--(I will never root for fourth tier teams)
26.Cardinals(J.D. Drew)
27.Indians(Chief Wahoo)
28.Rangers(Texas and A-Rod's salary)
29.Braves(perennial rivals)
30.Yankees(they buy championships, there needs to be a salary cap)

i KNEW there was another Canadian team!1 wait, they're moving to DC? weird.

and why did they have an american flag flying at the game last night, and then next to it a blue flag with "Toronto" written on it in white flying next to it?
