As a longtime Rangers fan, I've had my heart broken every year since 1977 (when I first discovered baseball and went to the old Arlington Stadium, a cesspool of aluminum and sweat).

It was so sweet to see them destroy the Yankees (my most un-favorite baseball team)--especially if you add the fact that the victory came on a strikeout of A-Fraud, the guy who almost single-handedly ruined the franchise even worse than it already was!

GO RANGERS!

I want to get behind the Rangers, but it's hard for me to do. I'm a bitter Houstonian. The Astros went to the World Series five years ago and they choked, of course. And the year after that half our team was playing for the Yankees (nobody good ever stays in Houston, except Andre Johnson). I'll bet you the Rangers win, just because they're more of a Dallas team so they don't have the Houston funk on them.

And then there's the Cowboys. I greatly dislike/borderline hate them, especially after the game against the Texans this season. Some of that rivalry carries over to baseball for me too.

But the Rangers did beat the Yankees, and the Yankees stole a bunch of the Astros good players so I guess I'll have to root for them. But I'm just not overly excited.

When the White Sox lost all hope of a playoff spot baseball season ended for me pretty much. A lot of people are cheering for the Rangers, sounds good to me, not rooting against the Giants just rooting for the Rangers.

I predict a Texas win and Cliff Lee as MVP.

Giants up 2 games to 0 heading down to Arlington. So far, nothing like the predictions of low scoring pitcher's duels, that's why they play the games. Looking forward to this weekend. Go Giants!!!

They have been getting the hits. That pitching and the defense behind been dam good too. Don't see the Rangers having much chance but not over yet.

Man if the Rangers don't do something at these home games it's going to be a short series.
It seems odd to be rooting for the Rangers this time of year.

GO RANGERS

The Giants are due. Ovedure actually. I mean, have the Florida Marlins really won TWO world series already, and SF Giants none?? No, it is time.

Check out Steve Perry leading Don't Stop Believing in the stands at a recent Giants game. I am not even a Journey fan (to be kind), but this was admittedly pretty cool:

And congratulations to the Rangers and their fans. Just your first trip to the World Series, but it will certainly not be your last.

Hey Strato, where is Grass Valley? I was raised in San Jose, but never heard of it, I have to send a box there today and saw you were from there. You didn't happen to buy a Fast Track Pro off Ebay this weekend did you? lol
