As the regular season nears the end, a some teams, such as the Yankees, Dodgers, Phillies, and Red Sox, Angels, and Cardinals, have all clinched their playoff spots. What are your predictions for the playoffs?
I'm obviously cheering on the Phillies and I think they can/will go back-to-back; how about you guys? I'm leaning towards the Angels for the AL team in the World Series.

As a DIE HARD NY METS fan, I was hope'n to see them v. the TIGERS. I would like to see the Tigers and St Louis, but my hopes aren't that great any longer. I do however have a practicle feeling that the Yankees and Dodgers may go to the finish. I would much rather see the Angels and Cards.

I would like to see a Monday playoff between the Tigers and Twins that goes 15 innings and Verlander pitches 10 of them.PS I am a Yankee fan in case you could not tell.

I'm hoping the Tigers can just clinch their playoff spot either tonight or tomorrow so we can rest Verlander. I'm excited to see the playoffs start, but the Yankees will be a very, very tough match up.

The Phillies and Cardinals are looking good. I have not seen the Cardinals play this year since I watch mainly the American League, but they may have the best pitching staff in the Majors. My Red Sox really slumped in the last two weeks, and they have stumbled into the playoffs. Nonetheless, I have high hopes they can muster some enthusiasm and beat the Angels, but that will not be easy. The Yanks should have an easy time vs. the Tigers.

The Phillies seem to have some pitching problems, so for me the jury is still out. Although I live fairly close to Philly, they aren't really my team. Having been born in Baltimore, I'm more of an Oriole fan.. (I know..but I have never been just a fair weather fan...gotta stick with your team no matter what.)

I'd much rather you be a devoted Oriole fan than a fair-weather Phillies fan. At least they've won a few World Series titles too.

I am glad that the Tigers and Twins have to play off the last spot in the American League playoffs. It gives me something to watch tonight. After that, I almost hope the winner knocks off the Yankees, but since I am a Red Sox fan, I would rather have my boys deliver the knockout punch (after the Sox take out the Angels, of course).

I hope the Yankees get bounced in the first round so they can show us how meaningless their $230 million payroll is, like how they showed us last year by not making the playoffs.

I agree with you. Big money has too much influence in all professional sports today. By the way, in my previous post, I messed up. I said that I would watch the Tigers and Twins play tonight. A buddy just told me they are playing tomorrow.

WHAT a THRILLER---Twins and Tigers all tied at 5 each in the 12th. This is baseball at its best, no matter who wins.

That was an awesome game. I really hope the Twins beat the Yankees.

Your from that town that hates Santa sop I would expect you to hope the Yankees lose.Before you go on crowing you have to get past St Lou so you can lose to the yanks in the series.

Now that the Twins are taking on the Yanks, the playoffs are in "full swing". For baseball fans, this what we have been waiting for.

Phillies have the Yankees' number this year, and what does Santa have to do with anything?

And I'm not a fan of the 2:30 start time...

    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.

    • Thanks man, sometimes it’s hard to improve bc when I’m not feeling comfortable I don’t like practicing bc I get frustrated. Any advice?
