How about a poll. Winner in 4, 5, 6 or 7 games.

Maybe start another thread with a poll and we can get a moderator to combine them?

I'm hoping for 6, like the alcs. Game 7s are too stressful. So glad it ain't LA. Maybe these games will finish before midnight.

ATL in 6. Braves will break the ATL Sports curse. 

 

 

(And i wouldn't be surprised if the Braves blew a 3-1 lead versus Htown)

What's this curse? They won in 95

We're not in the 90s anymore. Old news. Look up Atlanta sports of recent memory.

Thanks for the education. But I dont call that a curse. The Cubs went 107 years and the White Sox 87, til they won. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Atlanta blowing a 3-1 lead last yr in the NLCS and losing. 

Atlanta blowing a 28-3 lead in the SB to Pats and losing. 

In Atlanta: UGA blowing a big lead in the natty to Bama only to lose on a game winning throw and catch. 

Basically the whole season for the Falcons just last season as well, highlighted by the debacle in Arlington versus Dallas. 

Could throw the Hawks in there too. 

 

Etc......... Unless one lives under a rock they know about the ATL Sports curse. I think the Braves break it finally by winning the World Series this year. 😎

Astros in 5. Atlanta doesn’t know what they have stepped into. McCullers will be back and the bats will keep clicking.

You sure on the McCullers coming back?

Nothing is for sure. I am the eternal optimist.

As of the October 21 he hasn’t even thrown a pitch.  
in my opinion if he does make an appearance it may be in relief and probably later in the series.

We can win without him. We weren’t supposed to beat Boston, and after the grand slams, I was beginning to have my doubts, but I never left my team. Our pitching did an about face and practically shut Boston down completely. That final game shutout was amazing.

I get great pleasure watching Houston dispose of the “big market” teams.

I would rather had LA win last night to force a game 7 then the Braves win that game. Use up more of their pitching.

I'll take the Stros in 6 but getting that Herculean effort again from the bull pen like they did against the Red Sox may be asking a bit too much. Starters have to go deeper. We really need McCullers back but that ain't happening.

I agree.

Agree. Our pitching is rested and will be ready to go. Still have hope for McCullers. I expect Herculean efforts in the WS. The bats will cover whatever pitching woes we may have. Hey, but that’s just me being a fan.

You should be able to add a poll on this thread since you started it. Just click Edit, then add poll.

If you're not sure how I'll start another with a poll and maybe get a mod to merge them like you were saying.

Nevermind, I forgot that there's a time limit on this site when you can edit your own post. 

I'll start another one.

I hope they win for Dusty Baker.

 MLB moved the All Star game from being played in Atlanta due to so called racism for voting laws. Now Atlanta has to host the WS. LMAO. What a freakin joke MLB, NFL, and NBA have become with their liberal agendas ruining sports.
