I'm an A's fan who can't choose whether to cheer for TX or SF if that's the WS matchup.

I hate both so much!!!!!

I never understood A's fans hatred of the Giants. I grew up in Oakland and always rooted for the A's, as long as they weren't playing the Giants (wasn't really a problem before interleague play).

I guess I'd be a little bitter too if my awesome baseball stadium was transformed into a pile of crap for a bunch of beotches moving back from SoCal. Maybe your anger should be directed towards the Raiders, and more specifically Al Davis?

Go Giants!

The Coliseum is one of the worst stadiums in both leagues (NFL/MLB). I don't blame that Giants for that. However, the Giants laying claim to San Jose further preventing the A's from finding a better home in the bay pisses me off. And then there's the fact that more often than not, I always get some snarky *** remark/look from Giants fans whenever the find out that I'm an A's fan. Is it because of the '89 series or what?

But more recently it's the stupid panda outfits and kayak goons in the cove. And even more recent is Wilson's Leonidus-like beard.

Well thinking about the scenario last game, it looks like things are in favor of the Giants either way.

Oswalt was put in to pitch to Posey who was on a tear (and he got a hit anyways) and supposedly would be able to get that important out. (Posey never got a hit til then off him) So he was used on 2 days rest, instead of Halladay who is pitching today. Makes Halladay a full rest.

Even if the Phillies win, Oswalt, who gave up the hits, and lost the game, and was used 2 days and then 3 days would be on short rest.

We probably wouldn't have to consider that as long as the Giants play like they've been playing... Torture baseball!

oswalt "pitching on short rest" isn't really accurate. Pitchers have bullpen days in between their starts so oswalt probably would have pitched a few innings after the game anyway so he would still be good to go for a game 6
