Pfft. The Jays haven't been there since 1993.

You'll have to excuse my biased opinion, but...<br><br>They'll do it again this year...<br><br><img src='http://4.forumer.com/uploads/traysandor ... 923503.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /><br><br>And leave the Yankees like they did last year:<br>

Would love to see a White Sox/Cardinals World Series...<br><br>But I shudder if we have to face a California team...<br><br>It seems Chicago has bad luck against Cali teams...(No offense to anyone from California...but I HATE California.)<br><br>And to the Boston fan...Yes It was cool seeing the Red Sox whup the Yanks last year...But Its time to give someone else a shot..(which am us) this year.<br><br>GO WHITE SOX!<br><br>And even though baseball is an all American sport basically, we do have international players in the game.
