No kidding - this "rivalry" already sucks. These games already suck. Let's make more out of these games....fucking dumb.
This is more marketing bullshit. I haven't heard a single fan on either side clamouring for this kind of crap. Why are the marketing people pushing it on us?

Unfortunately, there are a lot of people who eat this shit up. Whenever I sell my Cubs/Sox tickets on StubHub, I usually get at least double face value -- usually more. I sell them for more than the Cubs/Cards series.
I'd love nothing more than for it to just go away. Instead they're trying to hype it more with an absolutely meaningless trophy. The rest of baseball is going to laugh at this stupid bullshit.
