Who Do I Cheer For? (Or Do I Just Take the Series Off)

I haven't had any trouble before. I grew up in Chicago, have lived and died with the Cubs, and try to make at least one trip a year to the Friendly Confines of Wrigley Field. I couldn't stop being a Cubs fan if I wanted to. It's in my DNA. I can't tell you how many times, beginning in 1969, that my World Series hopes have been dashed with the Cubs.

But we love the Diamondbacks. I hated it when they lost to the Mets in 1999 in their first playoff series. I loved it when they won the World Series in 2001 over the Yankees. I couldn't believe it the next year when the team bowed out too early in the playoffs. So I just wish this playoff series will go away.

Can I stay neutral? May the best team win? Who will I ultimately cheer for? And no matter who I cheer for, wouldn't I be a trader?

Any advice? Let me know what you would do? Let us know who you're cheering for and why.
