Getting so tired of it being the cardinals or giants.
I'm rooting for either royals or O's

A's over Royals. Lester and experience will prove that he's worth the trade.

Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.

Dayn Perry tweeted that the rule is only reviewable if it's a force play. For some reason. He didn't seem to get it either.


That rule keeps getting dumber and dumber.

So blown. I really thought this was our year to win it all. I don't normally believe in silly things like curses but I'm really starting to think D.C. is cursed. How do you lose a playoff game on a wild pitch? How do you have your entire lineup except for like two guys hit around .100? Matt Williams was fantastic all year, then in the playoffs he makes one stupid decision after another. Just ridiculous.

I'm glad to see Harper and Rendon did well though. They will be the cornerstones of our team for the next decade. I expect us to be back in the hunt next year, and that's all you can ask for. MLB playoffs are a lottery, as long as you keep buying a ticket every year you got a shot.

Thanks for the great season Nats. Now time to shift my focus to the Wizards...

Hope the Royals crush the Os. My girl is a huge Os fan and I can't have her having another championship while I suffer. Giants vs. Cards in the NL, I really don't care, can't really stand any team anymore, but I still hate the Cardinals more. At least if the Giants win it all I can say we lost to a team that is basically an MLB dynasty.
Eric Maynor is the worst basketball player I've ever seen.

I feel like Harper and Rendon could trade MVPs for the next decade.
