Top 3 choices for our WS opponent... if we get there....

1. Rays
You know they'll be just happy to be involved. They won't admit it, but it's true. This would be a sure win. And that's what I want most of all.

2. ChiSox
The series Chicago would never forget. The negativity of Sox fans would spill over to become a big stress-ball for their team, like we used to do to our Cubs. Why so stressed? Sox fans are mad as hell we got this good this soon. It spills over in to ugly comments about our fans and our park. There's nothing more weird than hating on Wrigley, my friends. But that's what they're saying. It's all because they were hoping to have a long time to lord it over us... now they're facing the end of that, and the loss of bragging rights. If we win, of course, the shoe is on the other foot. And that's the LAST thing they want with an aging, declining team of their own.

3. Angels
They tend to underperform at the crucial times. If they make it back to the series, they still might not play as well as they could.

These teams are, for me, the ones who, in order, are most beatable of the contenders. Who scares me? Red Sox - very scary. Twins - if they make it. When the Twins see the WS they always have won it.
