Red Sox or Doyers?

Five:

Anyone with a brain

I'm guessing that the people who wouldn't mind seeing the Dodgers win don't live in LA.

 

I do, but for whatever reason, my particular social circles contain more people who would get obnoxious about a Red Sox WS win than those that would get the same way about a Dodgers win.

[VariousCrap]

These are my two most hated teams, but if it comes down to them in the WS, I will be rooting for the Red Sox.

 

It would be horrible in LA/Orange County with all the dumb ass Dodger fans talking shit all year.  At least the majority of Red Sox fans are 3,000 miles away.

[Lhalo]

I'd be rooting for an asteroid to hit the stadium.

With the Kardashians and Real Housewives in attendance.

[19HALO71]

As I always say "I am an Angels fan and a fan of anyone playing the Dodgers". GO SAWX!!!!

[cysomeawfulpitcher]

Sox get my sympathy vote regarding the bombing last Spring.  At least their non bandwagon and home fans are civil.  They'll do most of their taunting on Yankee forums whereas Dodgers fans making fun of us would be worse.

Fixed.

Red Sox. The lesser of two evils.

the butt-hurt is strong in this one.

Red Sox. The lesser of two evils. 

How are the Red Sox the lesser of 2 evils?  They knocked us out of the playoffs 3 times in the last 10 years.  We play the Dodgers 4 times a year in the regular season.  **** Boston.

[Make Angels Great Again]

This really sucks. Literally every team I wanted to advance in the first round got eliminated.

Red sox. Then I'd take a shower afterwards and pray to God for forgiveness.

[Vegas Halo Fan]

This would be my nightmare World Series. I probably wouldn't watch any of it.

 

I'm with AFL. Every team I rooted for in the first round lost.

[Troll Daddy]

To me it doesn't matter who wins or loses. I just want to see good exciting baseball. So far so good!

That's correct, a Tigers Cardinals WS will be very exciting. Can't wait.

Same story as last year. Two years straight the Angels have ended in 3rd place and every team I kinda liked got knocked out in the first round.

 

 

I actually put a small bet on the A's to win the WS before the season started. I thought they were grossly underrated (and I thought the Dodgers and Angels were overrated) in the odds going into the season. 

[Bruce Nye]

The manner in which Walter O'Malley treated the Angels compels me to never root for the Dodgers.

[RePLAY]

Red Sox..cuz I like telling Dodgers fans that they havent won a title this century just like the clippers.

[Corona]

Hopefully the Cards win it all so we don't have to deal with either obnoxious fan base.

Ah, I see. The butt-hurt originated in 1962 and is handed down from generation to generation, from butt-hurt father to butt-hurt son.

This is the first time I have ever seen an actual reason for O.C. Angels fans' irrational hatred of the Dodgers. Well done.

Here's an interesting tidbit from 2009:

http://articles.latimes.com/2009/oct/15/sports/sp-dodgers-angels15

Born out of baseball's first expansion, the Angels moved from the minor league facility that was Wrigley Field in 1961 to the new Dodger Stadium as tenants in 1962 and ultimately to their own Anaheim park in 1966.

From the start, however, the popularity and success of the Dodgers would haunt the American League team -- often envying and copying (until Moreno's arrival) their freeway rival with rash player moves, inept scouting and front-office instability that seldom bore fruit.

--------

Sound familiar? Apparently the rash player moves, inept scouting and front-office instability didn't stop with Moreno's arrival as the article implies. And the envy continues as well.

Show me where in sports where two teams are so close geographically that there isn't some kind of big brother little brother relationship?

[RePLAY]

lol acting like the Dodgers Fans would ever root for the Angels.

[notherhalo]

dodger fans act like they know, such is irritating

[RePLAY]

Because knocking us out warrants thier shit talk...While the Dodgers have lost almost ever series to us, havent done jack since 1988 and think they are almighty.

[HBMike]

lol acting like the Dodgers Fans would ever root for the Angels.

They did in 2002, at least most of them.

[DEATHRACERCHEVY]

My boyfriend is having this same dilemma. His reason is "You have already won twice, if you another fine. I couldn't take the Dodgers winning. God they would never let me live it down, especially with how bad the Angels were. F*** the Dodgers."

 

I will say this, if we Lose to Detroit, GOOO CARDINALS.
