The boo birds were out at The Stadium today for their final homestand.

Should be a fun series starting tomorrow.

I'm not sure about you Mike, but it's seasons like this one that makes me wish the Orioles were in another division. Nothing would be finer than seeing the Evil Empire are the bottom of the AL East

I LOVED hearing the boos yesterday...

Gotta piss those fans off seeing the Rays, with their miniscule payroll, come into Yankee Stadium's final homestand in first place.

The Jays moving ahead of them this week was the cherry on top.

I guess the Red Sox found a way to win on the road finally. Pap runs his post season scoreless streak to 17 2/3 without giving up a run.

Bay and Drew may not add up to a Manny by a long shot but I'll bet the Angels wish the Sox still had Trot Nixon and Willy Mo out there in the outfield.

So who would you rather have K Rod or J Pap? It's not how many saves you have but how many games your team wins. The Red Sox may not win a world series again ( I think the Dodgers are destined) but I bet the Halo's would rather be in Boston's position than there own.

You mean up 2 games to none in a 5 game series and heading home?

Ya Think?

Religion is for people that are afraid of going to hell. Spirituality is for people that have already been there.SoulSearching is for our elected officials who have to find it before they can determine which of the 2 aforementioned groups they belong.

I took an awful lot of grief from the Halo crowd about the 8 of 9 wins they had from the season series.....just a little understated payback.

I don't like anything about the REDSOX(except their chances of taking it all.) I know the Dodgers aren't gunna be able to close games if Saito isn't 100%. Broxton got bailed out with a low strike call, but I know that guy too well. A good team will get to him late in games. Edmonds had him, and who knows how that ball stayed in. He makes mistakes, and doesn't use his best pitch(98mph heat) enough at all. I know he is gunna give it up in any close games in the post. I wish when the Red Sox get somebody out on the warning track in an opponent's ballpark, that the place wouldn't sound like a damn home game for them. That gets old very quickly. What fkn stray cat hasn't latched on to them or the Cubs? This ain't Euro Soccer. Wait until the fkn team plays in their own park.

Religion is built on fear. It couldn't exist without it. It's about control(using people's fear as a weapon.) God-FEARING!!..DUH..

I hate the fact that the Sox have become America's Team over the last few years because of their success but it's not like you get to pick the fans that support you just like you don't get to select who hates you. I have way too much history (close to 50 years) of heartache with this team to count any victory until it actually happens. See Games 6 and 7 of the 1986 series, Games 7 of the 1975 series to name a few. I know what you mean about the unfair road advantage but it's a tough thing to apologize for. So far the Angels haven't been able to play their game with an early lead and a running game that stems from opportunity.....Beckett may not win tomorrow but Lester is 11-1 at home which should get it done.
