MLB Post-season Prediictions

It's that time of year again. October baseball. Good news, no more Frank TV ads. Bad news, expect a ton of Lopez Show ads. Last year, The Phillies won their first World Championship since 1980. It will Philly's first championship in 25 years. As much as I would love to see them repeat, I got a feeling that its not going to happen. They kinda limped into the playoffs losing 4 of their last 7 games. The Twins won a marathon game with Detroit last night to win the honor of being slaughtered by the Yankees. Boston and LA renew their rivalry for the 3rd straight year and St Louis returns for the first time since their '06 championship but run into the Dodgers, the NL's best team. Now for the picks.

ALDS
NYY over MIN 3-0
LAA over BOS 3-2

NLDS
STL over LAD 3-2
PHI over COL 3-1

ALCS
LAA over NYY 4-2
PHI over STL 4-2

World Series
LAA over PHI 4-3

Stanley Cup Predictions among other things

This past weekend was Irish Weekend. I was a little annoyed that Jay asked everyone and their mother if they wanted to go to Irish weekend except me. So Dennis calls me on Wednesday and asks me if I wanna go down and piss off Jay. I accept and me, Den and Ed head down Friday afternoon. I must say it was a success. Jay was plenty pissed we were there. But I guess since his boy Dennis wound up going too, he wasn't as bummed. Anyway it was a fun weekend of drinking, cool weather and stories i'll tell you in person.

In other Bri related news, i'll be receiving my last severence check from the Beneficial next week. After that, its unemployment until I find a new job. I've been looking but don't have any bites yet. Tomorrow i'll be golfing with my old bosses Dennis and Baron. I'm glad because its a chance to use the clubs I bought two months ago. I'm hoping to finish in the 110-115 range but don't hold me to that. The Phils won another division title last night. The last time they won three straight division titles was from 1976-78. As of now, 7 of the 8 spots are decided. I'm excited for the playoffs. Hopefully the Rockies can sweep the Dodgers so we'll get them in the NLDS. Anyway for my Cup prediction: Chicago over Washington. My two teams who didn't make the playoffs that will this year, Toronto and Dallas.
