remove them from Wild Card contention?

I think I'm going to root for the Rays becuase winning the division equals a real playoff series, not that one-gamer out in Oakland at the current time.

Do whatever would avoid the one-game playoff. That is evil. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 4, 06:16 7
- Yes. But it's certainly better than nothing, I think. -- nm - Don Homer Sep 4, 06:18 6
  - Barely, yes. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 4, 06:18 5
    - As a sports fan, I love it mainly cuz there was no penalty for being a WC. As a team that finally could reach that level, I'm annoyed - Will Hunting Sep 4, 06:22 4
      - I think it'd be better than nothing after being pure sh*t for so long. But, I hate to say it... we may be the team of destiny this year. -- nm - Don Homer Sep 4, 06:23 3
        
        I wonder what the Vegas line was on us winning the East this year before the season? -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 4, 06:26 2
        
        A quick google found one site had them at +10,600 (on $100 bet, I assume). -- nm - Don Homer Sep 4, 06:33
        
        Dunno, but you're 7/2 right now - Strongbad Sep 4, 06:29
Rays definitely. Though probably hedging is best and they only take 2 of 3 from the yanks. -- nm - Don Homer Sep 4, 06:14
