We Await Game 7!

Should we be upset that the Royals made the big series?

On paper the A's, Angels, and Tigers were supposedly better teams. The Dodgers were world beaters, along with the Nats, but we saw how that worked out.

Personally it doesn't bother me---if you're close enough to get in, and then get hot at the right time, so what? Is Billy Butler possibly getting a ring and not Mike Trout or Clayton supposed to get the purist blood in my veins boiling?

To quote Tony Soprano: "Ugats to fair! Who said anything about fair?" Trent Dilfer has a ring and Dan Marino doesn't.

I'm not sure what's more curious in my baseball temple at the apartment in Long Beach: that I'm actively rooting for the Giants (represent Nor-Cal!)(But I do like the Royals, and wouldn't be upset at their possible victory); or that I'm all for the single play-in game...

Which broken down hulk of muscle will man first base for the Yanks next year, A-Rod or Texeira? Are we really having this conversation? (Um, it appears so...)
