wut? The Royals have a better away record than home record (at home is barely above .500, 42-39).

I'd say this goes 3, maybe 4 games but definitely not 5. The Royals have way too much momentum.

The only plus for the Angels is Hererra is hurt- a 7th inning reliever. Other than that, the Angels haven't hit nor held runners well at all.

With CJ Wilson going, if he can keep the runners close to 1st and mix in his moves well/ develop a hang and read or slide step more, the Angels have a chance in game 3, but Shields (I'm guessing) will be throwing game 4 and that'll be lights out.
shields is throwing game 3, the royals are barely above .500 at home. you're the worst.

from 265 for standing room only yesterday to 130 now. i get that that is standardish for them to go down before game but that is a big drop
Supply and demand. I think there was a lot of speculation early in the week.

STL (city) was the creepiest place i've ever been. Is KC cool?

Yes it's generally agreed that Kansas City is much much cooler than St. Louis. Everyone goes to Catholic school in St. Louis so you can imagine what kind of populous that produces. Also they think their barbecue is good but it's just pathetic. And they call a 25 cent piece a "qwahtah". Imagine.

So when The Rockies had that great run in 2007, that was all variance huh? The ALCS game 4 in 2004 with Boston had no momentum at all? That was variance too?

If Hamilton gets the start in LF again, I'm calling for Scioscia's head on a pike.

Being on the right side of variance can affect emotions, but that's about it. I'm not saying emotions are meaningless though. Puig on the Dodgers looks like a poker player on tilt IMO. Guy has struck out 5 times in a row and his body language is really awful.

Reminds me of when he kept going with Steve Finley in the playoffs years ago when Finley was clearly washed up.
