I heard this morning that the ratings are not as good as were expected. They think this might be due to the fact that it's an all California series.
Are you paying attention to it?
It's been a great matchup so far!

Haven't sat through a whole game yet but the 'chunks' that I have seen were super action-packed fubness!
it's a great series. I don't think I've ever seen a team pound out 4 run innings so effortlessly?

They were on last night, even without the power of the monkey!
Their whole lineup rocks.

I will not watch one single pitch of the World Series this year. I didn't last year or the year before. The only way I watch baseball is if the Cardinals are on. I don't give a rat's ass about any other teams or the sport itself.
I feel the same way about the NBA. Someone told me that ESPN may help save it, but I just don't know.

The critics of the game can't make up their mind as to whether pitchers' duels are boring or high scoring games take too long to play.

Not really that interested in the baseball, I will tune in to the game for a few minutes before that utter boredom has me change the channel. Basketball and Football anyday for me.

I haven't watched any of the games but always check the day after to see who won. The only reason I care is because I'm looking for revenge for my Cardinals!

I feel like Barry Bonds should get a spoon and eat my ass!
Tim McCarver, too.

In my opinion, pitcher's duels are boring and high scoring games are much more interesting and exciting to watch. For that reason, I have been a college baseball fan for 8+ years.
The Giants vs The Angels has been the most exicting MLB for as long as I can remember.
