Maybe. I'm real interested in seeing how the fairweather baseball fans react to new two teams.
People always cry that they want parity in baseball. They got it. Now do they actually support it?

Who cares who gets to the WS? Whoever gets there deserves to be there and that's that. Ratings will be lower with less popular teams, so be it. Ratings don't matter to anyone but the people making money off the sport. As a fan, I couldn't care less who gets there.

You sir are 100% correct. As long as its good baseball, I'm tickled pink. And I think we're gearing up for an epic series featuring great pitching and clutch hitting.

They'll spin all the feel good stories from the Giants and Rangers that it will get casual fans (women) interested. Especially with Hamilton's past.

Sure that is true, but I'd imagine they could offset some of that if they get a long series.

I'm more interested in watching a Rangers/Giants WS than any series involving the Yankees or Phillies.

I consider myself the casual fan. I watch zero regular season games and sporadically watch post season games.
They will no doubt lose some of the market from the Northeast, but there will be a lot of Cali-folk tuning in and all of Texas is rabid for Rangers baseball right now.

Sore Losers? idiots? cant really tell yet............ we'll see after the Phillies are done.....
FYI
The San Francisco Giants (in an April 2010 Nielsons ratings poll) are the "Most Liked" Team in MLB, out of the 30 teams.
Oakland A's are #2
as in... they scored the highest in a poll on how people feel about the team overall
see Wall Street Journal article here
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704471204575210384180269378.html
BTW Yankees are the 5th "Most Hated" Team, Red Sox the 2nd "Most Hated" , Cleveland #1 "Most Hated"

I'm heavily interested to watch the entire series. I watched the entire Phillies/Rays series along White Sox/Astros, and Angels/Giants (most underrated World Series). Media needs to learn and know there are 27 teams in the majors that are not the Yankees, Red Sox, and Cubs.

:lol: So most of the country are sore losers and idiots? (actually the Bush voters are, I'll give you that) People want to watch good baseball, hopefully they see the feel good Rangers vs the Phillies as opposed to the feel good Rangers vs a team made up of waiver wire scrubs that beat a far superior team that happened to slump at the right time.

That's a strange article. It more like most ignored with the reasoning on the Indians. I've never heard someone say their least favorite team was the Indians. I would guess almost all the fans of Central division teams would pick either the White Sox or Twins. Or maybe the Tigers if you're a White Sox fan.

Obviously Im ahead of myself as SF hasnt finished them off yet....
But I guess you can add the Padres, Rockies, Braves to the Phillies as teams who in your misguided words....."far superior team that happened to slump at the right (wrong) time".................what time would that be???? playing the Giants time Im guessin' :lol:
BTW which of the SF starters/closers/ROY were obtained through wavers??? They are the reason they are 1 win away from the fall classic, not because of the play of players cast off by others, like Guillen, Ross, Lopez, etc.
Go SF, send them Whizz Kid clowns from the "City of Brah Love", and their slumping fatheaded fans home to spend a cold winter wondering "what went wrong"...... aloha

FOX is already a bunch of losers from their joke "news" channel to Tim McCarver.
