    Most boring World Series ever?

    Please name a World Series that has been more boring than this one.
    Let's see how many we can come up with; the list ain't long.

    Chi Sox vs. Astros in 2005 was forgettable.

    To be honest, I haven't really paid attention to a World Series except for this one simply because I have been burnt out on baseball by the time the WS comes around (I coach baseball in the summer). I have a feeling I am not going to want to talk about baseball for a while.

    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    The 2000 WS was pretty boring, unless you lived in New York. This one has a representative that has never been there. Todd Helton is finally getting a chance to play in the post-season and the Rockies have a chance to show that they are not just the "Blake St. Bombers" now. Unfortunately, the Red Sox seem to be a better team and have run over the Rockies.

    Pretty much any sweep is pretty boring unless you're a fan of one of the teams.

    Especially if the games aren't even that close.

    I actually enjoyed the last 3 games in this series. The 2-1 game was a very nice pitching duel. And these last two games, the Rockies made it close in the closing innings at home. I was entertained big time.

    Congrats BoSox!

    Now we can move on to free agency. Wayne Krivsky better have many agents on speed dile.

    Hey unless I missed something I was thinking Jonathan Papelbon or Jacoby Ellsbury was going to win MPV.

    IYO if the Rockies won, who do you think would have won MPV? Matsui for me.

    Matt Holliday would have been the only one deserving for the games actually played. BUT, if the Rockies would have won, the games would have been close, and I think Corpas would be a slightly better choice but that's is purely hypothetical.

    As not only a huge fan of the Red Sox but also of the game of baseball, I think games 2 and 4 were pretty exciting and even part of game 3 before the Red Sox broke it open.
    "They asked me if I wanted the ball in Game 6, and I said yes. I'll always say yes. That's what I did with Jack McKeon. I told him, 'Let me see how I feel tomorrow.' I went out, did a long toss, came in and said, 'I'll pitch, I want it, I want to do it.' And it ended up working out." -Josh Beckett
