Guardians-Rays predictions: who wins ALCS Game 1?

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorBeacon Journal sports writers Ryan Lewis and Nate Ulrich have made their picks for Game 1 of the Guardians-Rays series, so here's the question: is it okay to pick a team because you like its name?

2. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistAbsolutely, and I'm taking the Rays.

3. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistTampa's a warm, humid place, and a team that plays under a roof in the sunshine state knows how to handle pressure systems.

4. 

   Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentThat is not scouting, that is a travel brochure. Do either of you know a single pitcher's name?

5. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI know the Guardians guard things, Nina, and I want to be guarded.

6. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorLast spring I picked a horse because its name was Gentle Brenda, and she came in second to last. I felt wonderful.

7. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistSecond to last?

8. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThere were three horses, Brock, and one of them was a pony.

9. 

   Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentI have a model with four hundred variables, and I won't show it to either of you because you'd only misread it. Last time Vera used it as a coaster.

10. 

    Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistRight, so your model's a secret and mine's the sky. I trust the sky more. It's never once lied to me about Tampa.

11. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThen I'm switching to the Rays, because Brock said sky and I don't want him winning a feeling.

12. 

    Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentFine, the truth. My pick came from a coin, and it landed on Guardians.

13. 

    Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistCoin, then. Guardians. Chat, vote now, and no, it still won't matter.
