Yankees/Sox

So tonight one of the greatest rivalries in U.S. sports (the greatest in my opinion) starts up again in the ALCS. The trash-talking has begun, it's the best time of the year.

The Sox scare me, but my guess will be Yankees in 6 (how can I bet against my favorite team; I'll always take them over the Sox). I can't wait to see how Boston is when the series comes back to Fenway; I'm going to see if I can get my hands on some tickets (or at least go to one of the bars near Fenway during gametime).

This is what I've been waiting for all year....GO YANKS! (and to think, I live in Boston).

This is the best time of the year, every year that it happens - I can't wait for tonight (well, maybe Schilling's all-time postseason record helps too this season...).

It will be a great series either way, especially when Schill takes it down in game 5 to send the sox to the series.

Of course, crazy shit happens in a sox/yankees series - I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a Miguel Cairo game-winner, or D Minky punching somebody in the face in the first-ever bench clearer in the first inning.

The difference is, this season, BOTH teams have "the fear" - and for good reason. The Sox are dangerous, and the Yanks are . . . well, unfortunately they're still the Yanks. This time though, they'll need 'the Ghosts' b/c for the first time in a long time, they're not clearly the better team on paper.

I wish I was there, particularly when Pedro pitches against his "daddy."

There is never a bad time to look at pictures of DEREK JETER!


Oh yeah, I think the Yankees will win in six, maybe five.

Chuck,

I'm going to redeem myself for my change of allegience in the Red River Shootout and concur with you on this one.

I just want to see the Cards and Yanks go at it in the WS. Basically like 2 All-Star teams going at it.

You support them even though half of them beat their wives and the other half have been in rehab for substance abuse?

They coulda saved billions of dollars in construction costs and lots of time on the Big Dig... just drop a W53 thermonuclear bomb over Fenway Park!



(Not to worry, you Yankee fans held hostage in Baahston... we'll quietly give you a head start before the ICBM launches!)

*The W-53 was the nuke on the old Titan II ICBM - estimated 9 megatons of city-busting power!

My favorite chant about the Red Sox

"WHY … ARE … YOU … GAY? HOW … DID … YOU … GET … THAT … WAY?"

Sung to the tune of YMCA

I doubt Curt will pitch anymore the rest of the season unless he insist he is ok. If his foot hurts him that much he can do more damage to the Sox than help.
