American League, baby. Feel the power of the sweep...again.

1. Sans Yankees, I ALWAYS root for the AL.

Congrats Sox fans!! :toast:

6. I was still hoping for Konerko to smash one to their seats, splashing Coke

and nachos up into their faces, to be replayed hourly on Sports Center. (cue the muted trumpet "wah wah wah waaaaah" sound effect)

7. Babs looks embalmed in that picture

That is priceless...I just wish it was because it's Fitzmas, not because the 'Stros got swept.

4. You must be psychic, my dear Will.....

Good for you!

Politics AND baseball...quite the combination!

[WilliamPitt]

5. Not much difference, really

;)

[HuckleB]

8. You did.

Still, this has to be the closest sweep in history, with every game a bonified baseball gem.

9. Did you move to Chicago or something?

So far we're the only ones who are actually feeling the power of the sweep. ;-)

Mostly in the form of guns being shot into the air, fireworks and drunken Sox fans. Can't wait for the climax, probably sometime around 4:00AM, after the bars close. :eyes:

[WilliamPitt]

10. Yep

"Mostly in the form of guns being shot into the air, fireworks and drunken Sox fans. Can't wait for the climax, probably sometime around 4:00AM, after the bars close."

Sounds like a long-desired championship to me.

As a Red Sox fan.

11. here

it's in the form of me laughing my ass off at all the guys in my suite who were rooting for Houston

[Susang]

15. Yeah, tell that to my dog

He really wanted to go outside to pee last night. Silly me, I didn't want him to get hit by a stray bullet while he was doing what he had to do. :crazy:

The boom-boom noises stopped around 4:30 or so. Or at least that's the last time I looked at the clock after hearing what sounded like a half stick of dynamite going off next to my bedroom window. :wow:

12. American League?

Or did it all start with the inequality of the American League? Chisox started with a sweep of the Bosox on Oct. 7. Houston needed 4 games to beat Atlanta, including an 18 inning game on Oct. 9. The Angels did not eliminate the Yankees until Oct. 10. Then quickly fell 4-1 to Chicago by Oct. 16. The Astros, on the other hand, finally eliminated St. Louis, the team with the best record in baseball btw, on Oct. 19 and then played on the road on Oct. 22. So, before they met, Chicago had played 8 games, had six days of rest, and did not have to travel. Houston, on the other hand, had only three days of rest, had to travel, and had played 11 games prior to meeting the Sox. Gotta like those odds if you are a Sox/AL fan.

13. Were you playing baseball?

:shrug:

[terrya]

14. Thousands of other people?

:shrug:

[XNASA]

16. They couldn't have done it without you.

[sasquatch]

17. Are there any pics of ChiSox fans in the streets like Red Sox fans were?

:shrug:

[WilliamPitt]

18. I'll say

[bigwillq]

19. The AL rules.

I always root for the AL teams. Even was pulling a tad for the Red Sox last year. They needed to be put out of their misery sooner or later! :hi:

[NYYFan]

20. My town has a single-A White Sox Farm team

Players like Joe Crede and Aaron Rowand played here. So, I am happy.
Oh, the town: Winston-Salem, NC. The Team, the Winston-Salem Warthogs
