      - I like the NFL because every game matters. Baseball? Eh they lose 10 in a row they can still recover. - Go Ducks win win win! Sep 2, 07:35 5
        
        Often a baseball season comes down to the last week, every game matters in baseball too. - Krusty Sep 2, 07:40 4
        
        When I was a Giants and 49ers fan the outcome of my emotions was always different. - Go Ducks win win win! Sep 2, 07:43 3

        Goddam right it is. And if Pujols leaves the Cardinals next year, that's exactly what we'll hear. - Jim Sep 2, 07:50 1

      - Then root for the Kansas City Royals -- nm - Go Ducks win win win! Sep 2, 07:24 1
