World Series Game 5 Pick

One of the main reasons I bet on baseball games is to make them more interesting to watch. Since I have a dog in this hunt (Rangers), I am enjoying the games regardless of whether or not I have any money riding on it.

That being said, I think the Cardinals should win Game 5 tonight. St. Louis is 8-1 in Carpenter's last 9 trips to the bump. CJ Wilson has not fared as well, posting a hefty 7.17 ERA in the playoffs. But, because I'm rooting for Texas, I would be torn if I bet against them and wouldn't be able to enjoy the game as much as I would by just sitting on the sidelines. So, I'm going to pass on tonight's game, but if I wasn't a Rangers fan, I would bet a few coins on the Birds.

I sure hope I'm wrong :)
