Eh, I'd pick the Jays as one of my favorite AL teams. It just sorta happened that my brother was on a little leage team called the Blue Jays when they were in the two Series, and I've been a fan (sorta) since. But right now I am pissed with Roy Halladay for having a bad start and losing his first two games. Not that it would ahve made a big difference, since I won all the pitching categories but Saves (I think), and Fittisize kicked my butt on offense. It's the darn Petco Park, I tell you! I watched the 3 games player there so far, and saw 5 ground rule doubles, a triple, who knows how many regular doubles, but only 1 home run.
Oh, and ABF, you are right- it is because of the imbalance that teams are eliminated from the playoffs so soon. But I think if 8 teams made the playofffs, it would be different because there would still be hope to get one of the 5 wild cards and anything can happen in the playoffs. However, I agree that this is just a half baked solution to the real problem that is George Steinbrenner's wallet.
