    Eternal optimist, eh? How many teams have emerged from an 0-2 hole? Not many. granted it is not like A 0-3 hole, but the Tigers went down so meekly both nights I don't see them making a comeback. I remember the Red Sox huge comeback from 0-3. The three games they lost they fought hard and one could almost sense the comeback. Tigers are looking like emasculated kitties still hurting from the neutering scissors! Hapless and devoid of fight. Giants never looked like this in losing the three they did against the Cards. Reality is Giants disposed of a mighty team whereas Tigers disposed of a has been Yankees whom they now resemble!

    Not an optimist. I'm the one in Vegas pulling all the strings. Can you imagine all the money we're going to haul in on this one?

    Hahaha! Were it only possible! It is the other way around. Government bleeds us dry then throws us scraps. Reminds me of Rome! Bread and gladiatorial games! Hopefully you're right about them hapless Tigers. They've looked real bad!

    I picked them, but bet nary a penny! I bet many in America did to their own chagrin! Seldom have I seen such ineptitude on a field of play. ONly the ref in Chelsea vs ManU was s inept as the Tigers! BTW, congrats to the Giants for a cold blooded, surgical win!

    Hey they were outplayed and outclassed. Suffered a confidence collapse and certainly were better than the Yankees whom they swept. It was not fun to watch, that's for sure. I am sorry they lost!

    Giants have won 2 out of the last 3. They must be a dynasty now.

    Been 4 years since the Yankees won it all, and only once in the last 12 years.
    I guess buying those championships with the top payroll isn't working after all??

    whodey, you got some serious 'splainin' to do!!!

    3 is what makes a dynasty in a decade.

    Majory splainin'?

    The Giants are 8th in payroll, right at the top.

    (easy button pressed) There, that was easy.
