1. More surprising team to reach the World Series?

Tom Cleary: Tampa. A lot of people thought they would be good, but no way anyone saw this coming.

Keith Connors: Over 10,000 Phillies’ losses can’t be wrong.

Chris Simmons: Tampa Bay. Next year: the O’s.

2. Toss-up: Philadelphia nightlife or a Tampa Bay vacation?

Tom Cleary: Have to go with Tampa again, sunny and warm weather during the day, plus still decent nightlife.

Keith Connors: Tampa’s got the weather edge, but there are 1000 other places I’d rather be in Florida than St. Pete’s.

Chris Simmons: Paddy’s pub. Philly. Hands down.

3. Better dining: Florida surf or Philly cheesesteaks?

Tom Cleary: Philly cheesesteaks, not a huge fish fan.

Keith Connors: Pat’s. Geno’s. Can’t go wrong…until three hours later.

Chris Simmons: I’m watching my weight, a few more pounds and I might break 140. Seafood.

4. Your World Series prediction?

Tom Cleary: Phillies in six. They seem to be more talented, but with the pesky Rays, you never know.

Keith Connors: Rays in seven, if Dick Vitale doesn’t have a heart-attack first.

Chris Simmons: Tom needs to be more assertive. Rays in six.

5. Now that baseball is nearly over, what are you looking forward to most?

Tom Cleary: Men’s soccer against No. 8 Loyola this Sunday. Like Cooley said, when I see green, I get sick.

Keith Connors: Harbor Yard. November 18. Stags versus Big Red, Round Two.

Chris Simmons: Ray Lewis and the Ravens catching the Steelers.
