There's a reason I get paid to analyze risk and you don't. Let's just leave it at that.
So just tell me since you previously said they were the exact same. Given the outcome of the first two games, is the 2-3-2 format still the same as the 2-2-1-1-1 format?

You damn right they aren't. We might not close it out in 5, but if you were paid to pick the format you would prefer at this point it wouldn't be the damn 2-2-1-1-1 format.

I take the 2-3-2, but it has nothing to do with momentum or the potential sweep. It has to do with Colby pitching on the road.

Are you actually serious? You take the 2-3-2 for reasons outside of the opportunity to play 3 straight games at home? You realize you are showing your hand here, right? And by showing your hand, I mean showing how stupid you are (and I mean that in the best way possible of course - ).

I knew you'd eventually give up.

I've certainly given up on you.

That's good, considering that all you had left was the argument from authority fallacy that the fact you get paid to analyze risk somehow proves your stance right about a home team's advantages in a 2-3-2 baseball series.

Actually I had already beaten you to death with logic but you'd been too dense to recognize it. So now I have nothing else to say.

In other words, you have nothing else to say other than resorting to hurling personal insults. Yeah, I guess we're about done here.
