I'm Going Out On A Limb And Saying Boston Wins This In 4 Games
Sometimes you can just tell when a team has "it" and right now, that team is Boston.

Gee, I hope I'm not jinxing them. :evilgrin:

5. honestly, I think both Yankees and Sox fans are arrogant
Mets fans, however, are the salt of the earth. Friend to creatures great and small. :)

6. No the NYY are the definition of success and class.
They always have won with class and respect for their opponents - unlike this crew of clowns intent on showboating.

10. Another sour grapes Yankee fan
Why do you live in Boston? Maybe there are 'classier' places you could call home...

:eyes: :boring:

11. Transplant who lives within earshot of Fenway
Very tuff times right now. I went to games 6&7 in NYC.

13. I like the Yankees, but some of the fans on DU
are being NASTY to Sox fans. I can't stand PAY-Rod or Steinbrenner, but respect Torre and Jeter.

I understand-I would hate to live near Fenway. Shitty neighborhood and noise and parking issues to boot.

15. I feel like I've had a death in the family.
I can't believe how bad it feels to lose after being up 3-0.

18. It's not the end of the world
put it in perspective-it's only a GAME. It's fun but it's not determining the course of the US. The election is.

7. I don't think that you are a long time fan, otherwise you won't be saying
that. I'm only a fan of underdogs and this year that happens to be the Red Sox, but they and the Cubs are by far my favorite underdogs.

4. I disagree with your analysis.
I think it's going to go seven and my crystal ball just goes red for that game so who knows who is going to win it?

14. nope, sox in 7
because there is too much ad money in it. TV would never settle for only 4 games.
