Does anybody really want to see a Tigers/Rangers ALCS???

Big Mac McGwire · Oct 4, 2011

It Wouldn't be a terrible matchup,

But i think it is way more fun to root for the Yankees to fail right before reaching the World Series,

and Who would not like to see the Cindlerella Rays conjure up some magic to possibly make it to the World Series??

Granted i think Texas and Detroit has a better shot of matching up to NL whom will most likely be the Philles, as you will need a team who can keep up with their offense.

I just feel the ALCS without the Rays or Yankees will be a little lackluster as far as excitement. But i do not mind
seeing all the feel good storys about Josh Hamilton, for whom i will be rooting hard for.

Is seems the D-bags are having the same problem. But as of now the Rays have sold out tonight's game though.

im pretty sure the Rays have "tarped over" the upper deck ala Oakland A's so they can say its sold out

JoshHamilton · Oct 4, 2011

Yeah, I would.

This thread funny and pathetic. We get it, you're a disgruntled Rays fan

braden · Oct 4, 2011

Sure, why not. I'm not a TV exec so I don't care about ratings.

To be honest, i think that's the ALCS match-up I'd most like to see.

I'm of the opinion that whoever wins each series should move-on to the next round regardless of who people "want" to see prevail.

+1

bowmanchromeandorr · Oct 4, 2011

i would. any post season series without the yankees is a good one

George_Calfas · Oct 4, 2011

I am game.

sabrgeek · Oct 4, 2011

Since I have WS tickets coming; I'm fine with the Tigers

hail2thevictors · Oct 4, 2011

So Rays/Yankees would be ok, but not Tigers/Rangers. That really doesn't make any sense, considering TB is one of the worst baseball markets in the country. Texas and Detroit are solid markets, and play good baseball. I understand you like the Rays, but they are the worst thing for MLB baseball if you want to talk about ratings and such.

RiceLynnEvans75 · Oct 4, 2011

I'd be all for it. I'm pulling for a Tigers/Brewers W.S. which would probably be the biggest ratings killer but I like to see new teams moving forward. Though I always pull for the Red Sox, deep down at the start of the year I always hope to see a Pirates/Royals World Series if the Sox can't go.

MojoDan · Oct 4, 2011

ABSOLUTELY I'd like to see that match up verymuch.

WoundedDuck · Oct 4, 2011

I'd prefer a Detroit/Rays series as many others have said, but I wouldn't mind a Detroit/Texas series either. Milwaukee/Detroit World Series would be great in my opinion even if nationally it wouldn't do well. If Arizona pulls off a shocker then I'd be hoping for Arizona/Detroit world series even though their fans don't deserve it.

RZimm11 · Oct 4, 2011

This stupid question comes up every year as soon as the Sox and Yankees are eliminated (or close to it). ::facepalm::

There are fans of other teams around the country, ya know??? I don't give a crap about tv ratings.

As a baseball fan, I don't care who makes it. If the Nats or Pirates somehow made it, and they lost, I'd still watch the rest of the playoffs. I have no rooting interest for anyone in now, but it's a great time of year for baseball, and I'm loving it!

That's pathetic. Bring a playoff game to KC and you'll see it sell out in about 45 seconds.

padremurph · Oct 4, 2011

I do, it will lead to a Tigers-Phills WS which is what I would like to see.

TBTwinsFan · Oct 4, 2011

I would love to see it, because that means that the Yankees aren't in the playoffs anymore, and I don't care for the Rays.

I am not a Tigers fan either, but after the show Verlander put on this season, I want him to keep going.
