Starting with MY team (the New York Yankees), every baseball team I've rooted for in this postseason in both leagues has been eliminated. Now, the World Series (which starts tomorrow night), is down to TWO teams....the Atlanta Braves (National League) and the Houston Astros (American League). I am DEFINITELY rooting for the Braves, and here's why...
1.) The Houston Astros CHEATED to win the 2017 World Series (look it up on google, I don't feel like explaining again what they did....or search "Houston Astros Cheaters" in my blogs). Bottom line, the crooked players were never REALLY penalized for their theft and they don't even deserve to be IN baseball's ultimate showcase....never mind WIN it!!
2.) The Liberal politicians chased the ALL-STAR GAME out of Atlanta this year to protest "Racist Voter Laws" in Georgia. Now, Stacey Abrams and Co. face two, maybe THREE games of the World Series being played in Atlanta, and the hypocrites wouldn't DARE chase those away!! I love it. It shows what phonies they are if they DON'T move the games but there'll be a RIOT if they DO.
3.) Baseball's TRUE Home Run King, HANK AARON, #44, was a lifelong Brave and he died in January of this year. Unlike Barry "The Cheater" Bonds, who passed Hank by ONLY 7 homers, Aaron did not use artificial substances to aid him. It'd be nice if the Braves won it all "for" Hammerin' Hank!! I know that wherever Hank is now HE doesn't know or care, but some of us who deeply respect that guy would love to see the Braves prevail "in his honor."
4.) The Braves haven't been in the World Series in this century!! Their last appearance was in 1999, when my Yankees beat them AGAIN. The Astros HAVE been in the Fall Classic recently.
5.) The Cleveland INDIANS had to drop their "Indians" moniker this year due to Political Correctness. It'd be nice to see the BRAVES win it all, and stick it to the P.C. phonies. (Let the P.C. crowd then DARE to demand that the World Champs change their name)!!
6.) My Pastor is a BIG Braves fan, and a TRUE fan, and I'd like to see them win it all as kind of a "Pastors Appreciation Month" present for him. He's a good man and a big FAN of those Braves.
And, 7.) The Braves got this far DESPITE the distraction of the All-Star game being moved and DESPITE LOSING ONE OF THEIR STAR PLAYERS KIND OF EARLY IN THE YEAR. They beat a team (the Dodgers) with a MUCH better regular-season record than them in the NLCS, and I love underdogs and COMEBACKS. Yeah, I'm an American League guy in the regular season but I want the Astros, who cheated my Yankees in the ALCS (2017) to fall.
Conclusion: I am rooting for the Braves...I just hope I finally get ONE pick right this postseason!!
