Sorry, dude. You picked the wrong team to cheer for. You should have decided to cheer for a team that isn't cursed, like the Cubs.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.
BACKE ATTAKE!

Alfonseca is in? :lol

Looks like Bobby Cox doesn't want to win this game. No wonder his postseason record is so horrible! :lol

Mig is gonna be praising the glory of CY BACKE now. :(

Why don't they save Roger for game 5? I suppose if he can't get it done Oswalt goes. But if your fourth starter can get the win you can have Clemens ready for game one of the NLCS.

Historically having a pitcher go again on three days rest usually results a loss. And he isn't nearly as young as Beckett.

The bats better be out tommorrow.

Yea well Roger pitched well sick and was predicted to lose that game based on his past game 1 playoff games on the road.Something is way different about this Stros team,worst case we have Roy-O for game 5.

Clemens doesnt even have to be on the top of his game to beat teams.

The biggest problem is we don't have a 4th starter. Throughout the second half of the season, the 4th starter is usually a mystery. Lately it has been Pete Munro, and that has had mixed results. If Roger says he can go, he is going to get his way. Close out game, at home with his idol Nolan Ryan watching, I am sure Roger is itching to be in that spotlight.

Hey, if Clemens loses game four, will he accompany the team to Atlanta for game five or stay home in Houston?? :D

Bah, that's what they said last year, and the year before, and the year before, ad finium... Time to show up the BoSox. Time to beat the Idiots. :D

Edit: I predict the difference will be ARod. ;)
 
Welp, here we go again. The only thing that bugs me is that every Sox fan I know seems to believe that a Red Sox win seems to nullify 90 years of being the Yankees bitch.

Wouldn't a victory just be the start of a rivalry and the end of the bitch slapping?

Glad to see we get a Yankees/Sox matchup. It wouldn't have been the playoffs without one :D

When do they start?
 
I think it's going to wind up being someone completely unsuspected....

I see Hideki Matsui on one side of the see saw, Johnny Damon on the other.

Even as a Yanks fan, you gotta respect Damon. The guy's pure class.

I want to see Bronson Arroyo get owned though. Boy has no need to talk shit.
 
Posada is going to have to calm down with the shit swings if the Yanks want to win. 3K's, 5 LOB for a guy that used to be known for having a good eye. That one K against Nathan was sad.

Thats my random thought for the evening.

Well it'll put an end to that f'ing tired ass 1918 chant, and that's like the best chant they can come up with in Yankee Stadium...so that's enough for me :p Although like you said it'll probably be replaced with an equally lame 26-6 chant or something..hehe it's all in fun I guess.
