[matcom]

CONGRATS Chicago! I REALLY mean that!

i hope you can feel the same.

GO SOX!!

1. STFU

I'm very sensetive now. I don't need it. Please shut up.

[matcom]

3. I'm 'sensetive' [sic] too

eat my ass

[redsoxliberal]

4. he's a red sox fan as well. I'm coming back from the imminent feeling

of the end of the world... but it'll come back again.

Sweep. This sucks.

[catbert836]

5. All right.

Whatever floats you boat, I guess. I can't see why any of us would be supporting the white soxright now, though. I guess that's not the way I roll.

[VelmaD]

6. easy to answer...

it's 'cause they AREN'T the Yankees. :)

[catbert836]

8. That's not true for me.

I'm the kind of fan who supports the team, instead of just being a kneejerker against the Yankees all the time.

[matcom]

9. unfortunately, you aren't the kind of fan

who can accept the fact we got outplayed by a better team. :eyes:

[catbert836]

11. A better team?

Maybe they were a better team TONIGHT, but certainly not in general.

[matcom]

13. right. 1-0 takes the SERIES

:eyes:

dude, if you know ANYTHING about baseball, you HAD to know we didn't have 'it' this year :eyes:

it is what it is.

[catbert836]

14. Forgive me.

I meant for this series, not just tonight.
I personally don't believe in "it". I think it's stupid to be so superstitious about baseball. Just like anything else in life, all possibilities are pretty much open, and it's people's decisions that make the future. I don't think the red Sox were predestined to lose to the white Sox this series, just like we weren't predestined yo win the series last year.

2. you are such a sweetie

Thanks for setting a good example and being a good sport. :)

7. SOX

Are they smelly sox?

[Tatiana]

10. Thank you matcom!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are such a sweetie!

Hey, if the Yanks defeat the Angels, they will still be dethroned by the Sox!

It's our time baby and we have waited hella long for it!!!!!!!!!!!

12. As a long suffering South Side Cub Fan,

I agree with Matcom. Congrats to the Sox. Now go out and win the whole shebang.

For all the bitter Cub fans, please control yourselves. I know Sox fans can be a bit "over the top" by personal experience especially when it comes to the Cubs, but bottom line no Chicago baseball team has won a World Series since 1908. If the Sox do it first, fair play to them. Also, the Sox have played some great baseball this season, which is more than the Cubs did.

GO SOX!!!

19. Correction

The White Sox won in 1917, making that the last time a Chicago team won the Series. :-)

[alcibiades_mystery]

15. Eat it

:evilgrin:

[deadparrot]

16. Congrats, Sox (from a Cards fan)!

Kudos to you for doing what we couldn't a year ago. :toast:

[mopinko]

17. win or die trying. that's us

thanks matcom. much appreciated. this is the only kind of sweeping that i like to do. these guys have it all. they have kicked ass, and get no props from the media.
sorry boston.

18. I grew up on the south side of chicago.

I even played ball in Comiskey park way before it became US cellular field or what ever they call it now.

I was ten years old and I played left field for Lawler Park. We were playing for city champs, T-Ball.

It was exciting, although we lost. It was great to sit in the dug-out and play on the field in the stadium.

I don't care much for baseball now, but I will always root for my home team. GO CHICAGO!

20. Kiss ass

:P

[JackDragna]

21. Thanks a bunch.

At least the Red Sox tend to field good teams. It's a rare thing when the White Sox are any good at all. We can use all the help we can get from the Yankees Lite..I mean, Red Sox. :)
