The World Series begins Tuesday, when the Kansas City Royals, upholders of truth, justice, and the American way, take on some team called the Giants, who they swept, three games to none, earlier this year. Any predictions?

Predictions? One team I have hated since birth and another team I could not care less about. I predict a massive amount of boredom.

Thanks for another optimistic message, Anton! I'm rooting for the Royals but I think the Giants will probably win in six or seven games. They have the edge in pitching and the experience of being in a couple Series in recent years.

I agree with wmd, the Giants SHOULD win it in 6 or 7. I'm also rooting for the Royals, however. Go KC!!

Fear not. The Royals will take the Giants like Grant took Richmond. The best thing the Giants could do is just forfeit.

GO BACK HOME, YOU GIANTS

Go back home, you Giants, to your City By the Bay,
Go home to San Francisco, to your Quiche and Viognier,
Defeat and woe await you on Kauffman's hallowed field,
Go back home, you Giants, before your fate is sealed.

Think back now, you Giants, to the shining August sun,
That smiled upon the Royals, who took three games to
none,
Go back to San Francisco, and venture forth no more
To the verdant Midwest Heartland by the broad Missouri's
shore.

Go back home, you Giants, and do not try to play
The heirs of Brett and Wilson, or an awful price you'll
pay,
Go back to San Francisco, and never more assume
That you can beat the Royals, who will sweep you to your
doom.

I will be cheering for the Royals. San Francisco goes every couple of years, it's time for someone new.

Bumgarner facing Big Shame James twice gives Giants two wins. After that the other games are toss-up, with KC's bullpen possibly making the difference against a hot Giant's team.
I'm going with SF in six.

We've REALLY got a good Series going now! I'm sticking with my pick of the Giants winning in 6 or 7. I'm glad I didn't make any bets on this Series! It could still go either way.

Can Bumgarner also pitch right-handed?

That was some finish! Winning 3 of the last 5 World Series is quite an accomplishmenr by the Giants.

This Fall Classic will go down in baseball history as
"The Bumgarner Series".
He was "Koufaxian"... what a performance.
