haven't experienced red sox fans but in my experience cubs fans are obnoxious and cocky except obv they havent won anything since 1900 whatever

no way, cubs fans are just pessimistic homers like myself who won't believe anything will go our way until the final out in our favor in the last game of the world series. teams with worse fans: angels, dodgers, yankees, red sox, phillies, cards

Los Angeles would be up there too, but lack of a football team kind of humbles them IMO.
dodgers have no fans except asians and alyssa milano.

Noonan (Philly, PA): Hamels' elbow - serious cause for concern, or expected wear and tear after throwing so many innings last year? Or, both?
SportsNation Keith Law: (1:21 PM ET ) Both. Before last year I think you could comfortably have called him "injury-prone." I wonder if 2008 will end up being this outlier year for him where he was healthy and awesome for an entire season, but then reverted to his prior form of being hurt ... and awesome.

Another thing I'd be interested in doing is going back over every postseason since '69 and asking two questions: who among the playoff teams was favored to win, and who actually did win?
How often does the team that won the most games in that season go on to win the WS? It's fairly rare (they show these numbers every year during the playoffs).

it seems to me that the odds have a lot more to do with popular conception than some realistic set of facts. like, phillies are probably a very hot bet right now because of this trade and so vegas responds appropriately by giving you far less payout for your bet.
Yes, but this has to be balanced against offering too-favourable odds on the other teams, which a boomaker needs to avoid, at least before the betting has really started. Joe Posnanski is baffled the Royals are 125-1, for example. I'm baffled the Dodgers and their sexy new rotation are 30-1 when there's no guarantee the Rockies or Giants will be obviously better in 2011.
― Mark C, Thursday, 16 December 2010 11:13 (thirteen years ago) link
James put a new piece up yesterday called "Thirty-Three Rotations." I love the subtitle: "The 33 Greatest Starting Rotations of All-Time in Chronological Order, Apropos Nothing in Particular." The five most recent: '02 Braves, '01 Mariners, '01 A's, '97 Braves, '93 White Sox.
