WORLD SERIES GAME 1 PICK

If it wasn't for betting I would have no interested whatsoever in this series. I love baseball, don't get me wrong, but I just don't give two fucks about either team. No story lines. No rivalry. Two pretty average teams. I think the ratings for Modern Family are going to crush the ratings for tonights game. Either way, gotta bet this game because its an easy one. 

Before I jump into my pick, I just need to say that the home-field advantage rule is the dumbest fucking rule in the history of rules. Almost as dumb as not being allowed to pee in public (we will save that argument for another day).

Its going to be 48 degrees, gusting winds, and a 30% chance of rain tonight, all I can say is that the only pick that would make sense would be the Cardinals at home tonight. More times than not I think you have to go with the home team in this series. 

Everyone is talking about how nasty the Rangers lineup is, and its true, it is very very good. But Carpenter is an absolute stud that has been proving critics wrong every time he pitches in this postseason. The place will be electric tonight, with everyone pulling beyond their ace to get ahead in this series 1-0. 

CJ Wilson, being a lefty, should get absolutely TORCHED by King Pujols, Holliday, and Berkman. But especially Pujols. The guy has been en fuego the past couple of weeks and I fully expect for him to keep this going. The spread tonight is Cards -1.5, and I think its safe enough to lay the points and take the +165 odds in doing so.

CARDINALS -1.5, +165

*By the way, Cardinals in 6. Boom, done.
