Interesting facts! I am leaning toward KC as well. Would love to see them take it.
On the over too.

ESPN’s SportsNation held a poll asking people which team will win the World Series. 70% of the votes picked the Royals, and all but 2 states picked KC as well. The two states that didn’t pick KC were Nevada and California…those two states were split at 50/50, right down the middle. So the question is, how can even California, Giants’ home state, NOT have a majority favoring San Fran to win it all? Well, there is something to be said about people’s belief in “momentum” (there is no such thing in pro sports), unbeaten streaks (those are meant to be broken, besides San Fran’s 8-2 post-season record is just as impressive), and just overall infatuation with the ‘underdog’. Will a casual fan root for a team that is trying to win their 3rd World Series Championship in 5 years or a team that hasn’t won one in 29 years, the last time they actually made the playoffs. I think World Series is popular enough where the money that comes from casual fans is high enough to offset the money that comes from professional sharpies. I believe that is why the odds have shifted in this one and I do believe that it’s an overreaction by the public. In tonight’s particular matchup, San Fran is a better team, and I like them to win game 1 of the World Series. I couldn't have said it better myself. Yes I could try but then it would be BOL

What are your thoughts? So far I have gathered mixed - some say over, some say under. My biggest thing was most of the playoffs games have undoubtedly ran under so I am leaning toward the U.

"Everyone" = posters or impostors who post threads. IMHO they are pure bookie pirates looking to drown out the pure successfulness of Pucku27 and his winning streaks. Anyone who follows Pucku, knows he rocks it and is a humble guy.
