It's only an avatar if the Cubs get swept.
Yeah yeah, didn’t feel like reviving the 2022 thread cause - wait. It’s not Houston/Philly? Then who in the hell is playing? Oh yeah, it’s these two teams no one really expected, and the tv ratings sure as hell didn’t want.

  • The Texas Rangers: They wanted Houston
    Overshadowed by their AL West rival and fellow Texas team, the Houston Astros, the Texas Rangers are often forgotten save for their stadium that looks like a grill and I think George Bush owned them at some point. This year they had a pretty comfortable summer but the September AL West chaos kicked in, and they got roped into a three way Wild Card showdown with the Astros claiming that divisional spot. The Rangers had the last laugh though. They gave the Astros the most definitive game 7 smack down in recent history. All while channeling and embracing the early 2000s buttrock that is Creed. With arms wide open indeed.

  • The Arizona Diamondbacks: A snake with a Hundred Mage Hands
    Arizona is the other forgotten Western Division team. I admit that the first things that come to mind when it comes to baseball in Arizona with spring training and the fall Cactus League. However, the Dbacks exploded in the end of the season with a vengeance. Destroy the Cubs and knock them down to elimination? Done. Sweep the wild card round and the NLDS to possibly end the careers of both Clayton Kershaw and Lance Lynn? Done. Completely silence the entire city of Philadelphia on their own turf? Done and done. The press has been calling them the “Answerbacks.” They may not draw first blood, but they’ll return the favor in spades.

God, I'm so tired. What the hell did I post last night?
For the record as the one who came up with the title, Fox's worst nightmare would probably get me probated to type out.

I have zero stake in this fight, but I feel like I'm leaning Rangers. The D-backs seem fun but the hotel picket line thing left a bad taste in my mouth, while the Rangers are fellow former Senators. Above all else, though, I hope the baseball is good.

I haven't decided who I'm rooting for, the rangers took out the Astros but also took out the Very Good Boys from Baltimore and have some vaguely chuddy energy, so it's a land of contrasts. The DBacks are kinda fun and chaotic but took out the Cubs (sorta) and the Phillies and crossed a hotel picket line and also have some vaguely chuddy energy

Same.


I'm about as even keeled and calm as I can be, and I think Arizona is going to have some nasty surprises in store. Still, Texas can win it. God almighty I want them to win it. It's all right there, go get it. Please.

Sorry did that graphic say Carroll is only the 5th player with 2 steals in a postseason game? Seems like that number would be way higher. I also assume Rickey did it like 50 times.
