How bad will the ratings be for the World Series?
Yes I am extremely disappointed that the dodgers are not there and that has nothing to do with this post. Seriously though, is anyone going to watch the Rays and the Phillies? The Rays making it to the Series is great for baseball and shows that you don't need the big payroll to make it there but the ratings IMO are probably going to be horrible for the Series.

I don't care one bit about the World Series.
Of all the matchups that could have come out of the post-season, Cubs, Dodgers, Red Sox......this one was amongst the least interesting.

If there was a Nielsen box at my house, it would show that the Series is being watched at my house.
I don't care who is playing - I always watch the Series. It's for the championship of my favorite sport.

Among the least interesting? I don't think there was another combination that could have been less interesting than this one.

Well, Milwaukee vs Tampa wouldn't exactly threaten the final episode of MASH, either.

I am not thrilled to see this series at all. Though, once the Phillies beat the Dodgers I was hoping that the Rays beat the Sox. So I guess I got what I wanted.

Baseball really needs to figure out a way to end its season earlier. Having the world series in the middle of the football season is stupid...not to mention the fact that there is little to no interest in the teams playing.

I'd even be for returning to a 144 game season as it was in the golden era of baseball.

And no more of this starting pitcher going 5 or 6 innings crap.
