ATH on ATH

One of Woody Paige's reasons as to why the Rays will win the series against the Phillies:

"The American League has won eighteen of twenty-two of the last (World) series. Eighteen and twenty-two, I think it makes a difference."

Fact: The National League has won 8 out of the last 22 World Series.

Fact: The NL winning 8 out of the last 22 is not equivalent to the AL winning 18 out of the last 22.

Fact: Woody Paige makes up shit every day on Around the Horn.

Fact: It is idiotic to take any "statistic" Woody Paige spits out as fact.

Fact: Even if it were true that the AL had won 18 out of the last 22, it would not make a difference on the outcome of this seven game series.

Fact: The 1985 Kansas City Royals do not affect the 2008 Phillies.

Jay Mariotti just concluded his "face time" by saying "don't break it if it's not broken."

Fuck you, Mariotti! If it's already broken I'm gonna break it again!
