Re: No LA vs LA. No Yanks vs Torre
I'm sorry that Heim lost a bundle yesterday, but I felt from the start that the defending Phillies were the better team and the more battle tested team. I was a bit puzzled about why many people I spoke to before the series thought LA would win. My original prediction was a Yankees - Cardinals WS though.
As a side note, I've been rooting for the Phils simply because I want Manny out of the playoffs. I don't want that deal the Dodgers did to get him to be justified. Too bad I hate the Red Sox; otherwise I would have been rooting for Jason Bay to win the WS while Manny stays home.
