That's what the Giants do. Dodgers have won the World Series 5 times since moving to the West Coast. They've given themselves 9 opportunities. Since moving to Frisco, the Giants have never won the World Series. They've blown all 3 opportunities to do so. Frisco, San Diego, Texas (oh those mighty Rangers,) Houston, Seattle etc. are loser MLB Organizations that aren't close to getting their cities a 1st ring. Has that state of Texas (don't mess with Texas!!) ever had a World Series winner?

Given the choice (if somehow the Dodgers got there,) I'd love a chance to play the Yanks. '81 was nice, but I don't feel like it's settled yet.

The State of Texas does not have a ring but does have more World Series appearances in the last 20 years than your beloved Dodgers.

Nobody cares about the runner-up, but the Astros have been much more successful than the Rangers. As somebody who's favorite team lost three times in the World Series (before finally getting it done in '81,) I can definitely tell ya that I'd rather not be in it than lose in it. Not being in it for 20 years is not nearly as disappointing as seeing them lose it in '74, '77, n' 78.

Now that's just crazy. I simply can't say I prefer the 2009 Indians over the 1995 or 1997 teams.

Well, Cleveland's expectations are to be 2nd best, or less. It's comfortable for them.

You live in MD. Baseball ends for you in May when the O's are eliminated.
