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)
