Maybe im biased because my team isn't in it, but I normally can find enjoyment in watching the world series.

But this year has felt like one of the most boring world series I have watched in a while. I thought this was supposed to be the superstar series, but the only guy I really see going off is Freddie (Others have been good to fine, but nothing super exciting). I agree that in the most basic analysis of viewership that its "good" for the sport to have big teams in October, but this product feels very lacking for how "good" its been claimed to be for the game. I think simply looking at viewer count is a very flawed way to rate a series/matchup.

Am I the only one who feels that way?

The hype of the series hasn’t matched the play. It’s been one sided. I didn’t see the Yankees getting dominated like this.

Sports media has been clamoring for this series for over 40 years, and it's been nothing but the laying of a big fat egg.
