the People's Champ Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Ok Hypothetically If the Sox went to the World Series this year and you were told that this is the last time that they would make it there in your lifetime, and you were given these choices which would you choose: 1) Their opponents are the absolute weakest team in the league so they are guaranteed a win, but are subject to carrying the title of fluke champion. ~or~ 2) Their opponents are the best team(or next best team assuming the Sox are the best). And risk the chance of them not winning at all. thats a tough one for me I'll answer later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedge Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 option 1. I'd want to win it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 I could care less who our opponent is, if we won the World Series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 BY FAR option #1. A win is a win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papachiba69 Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 @0 years later no one is going care how tough the opponent is, only that the sox won. Anyway the NL team couldn't be that weak, they would have not only had to make it to the playoffs but win two series to play the Sox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maggsmaggs Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 (edited) What "weak" team makes the post-season. the Cards are great, San Diego is good, the Nationals are good and so are the Braves. Hell if you make the World Series how can you be considered weak. Just give me the win. If you make the playoffs, 99% of the time, you are not weak.

I did say hypothetically I just think it's going be unanimous though. We all want to see this team win so bad; none of us care who we're playing. I follow this team, and I want to see them win the World Series. I don't root for this team to play a particular team in the World Series, and THEN win the series.

I would just love to have them win one just so they can tell everyone else :finger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wsox08 Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Why wouldn't you take a WS title vs. any team? I would take it over risking not getting it at all. Of course it is hypothetically speaking, but that's not even worth getting into Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Hypothetically...if you could give me 4 world series games against the Royals...I would never enjoy 4 games more in my life. 1 title in my lifetime is all I want right now. I promise I'll get more greedy if we get one, but damnation, we've got to get the first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
