    :rofl:

    Simply put, that's why the Yankees are the World Champions. Never give up on a game.

    By the way, if you told me 2 days ago that Dustin Moseley would arguably be the MVP of game 1, I wouldn't have been a happy camper.

    Yeah, Ny vs PHI would be the best matchup for ratings, but remember NY vs NY didn't do good.

    I'll switch to a different sport now, but stay on the same topic. I always find it ridiculous when Francesser starts thinking about potential Super Bowl matchups late in the regular season. In 2005, he was making fun of a potential Denver vs Seattle Super Bowl. He thought that was going to be a terrible game from a ratings standpoint.
    Umm, does anybody else think a Super Bowl is not going to pull great ratings?

    The Super Bowl is way different. In baseball you need a big market team to make the World Series otherwise the ratings are going to be shit.

    Yeah, but a big market team in the WS doesn't always guarantee good ratings. NY vs NY was bad and I don't think Chicago vs Houston was good, either. I don't know about Anaheim vs SF? Was that any good?

    NY vs Philthy will do well...But not as well as NY vs SF

    Alot of history between Yankees and Giants...But Yankees played SF in 1962 world series which went to 7 games. Yankees won 1-0

    Based on that data you can make a case for the Red Sux and Rockies being the worst

    That SF Anaheim world series had the second highest rated game 7 last decade

    What? There was 1 game under 10 in the BoSox/Rockies series.

    "second highest rated game 7 last decade" There were 2 game 7.

    Anyone have a decent stream? I'm not in the mood to listen to the game in Spanish.

    Edit: Problem solved, thanks TG.
