I am not a baseball guy. I am a baseball fan, but I am not a baseball GUY. I love to watch baseball. There are few better places to be on a summer night than at a baseball game. Baseball hats are the best form of sports style, in my opinion. I like baseball, but I don't understand baseball. With that being said, the MLB playoffs started last week and here is what I think will happen.
1. There will be a fist fight between a Boston fan and a Cleveland fan
There is not a more blessed sports city than Boston and there is not as cursed as a sports city as Cleveland. This is a nasty combination. I don't know which game it will happen, but it will happen.
2. Stuffed goat sales will skyrocket
If you don't understand the whole Cubs' goat thing, read this. Every fan base in the NL hates the Cubs. When they play in San Fransisco, I guarantee there will be a lot of toy goats in the stands. I don't think people buy stuffed goats when the Cubs aren't involved, so I think this is a safe prediction.
3. More people will watch football on Sunday than baseball
I love baseball, but unfortunately, it has been dropping in popularity. Football owns Sunday. I know that I will be watching more football Sunday than baseball.
4. Some bandwagon will break
Bandwagons are the worst. I hate them. I don't only hope, but think that one will disband after these MLB playoffs. Some of these bandwagons are untouchable (Cubs, Dodgers, and the Red Sox), but I believe that one playoff team this year will lose its bandwagon next year.
5. A team is going to win the World Series
This one is pretty bold. I think after two rounds of divisional baseball and one cross-divisional series there will be a World Series Champion. I don't know who, but it will be someone.
That's it if none of these happens I just prove that I am ignorant to baseball. I guarantee that at least one of these will happen, though, so you'll want to trust me on this one.
