Yankees vs. Red Sox

[GeorgeWendtCFI]

Hey, Wells pitched a heckuva game last night!

Manny still sucks.

Posada 1 - Varitke 0

[Bones42]

I only watched 1 inning of this afternoon's game. It started 0-0. It ended 7-0 I think. That was not a good inning for the Yankees.

[GeorgeWendtCFI]

2 out of 3!

Can you imagine what that series 9/30-10/2 is going to mean if it remains this tight?

Manny still sucks.

DITTO ! :D

I just hope we can pull it together enough to get into the playoffs!

[Bones42]

Hopefully, it will be that tight. Makes it a little more exciting.

[BFDNJFF]

HEEEEEEE"S BAAAAAAAAAAAACK

GOOOO GIAMBIIIIIIIII !! :D

Man when he is on he is ON ! :)

[GeorgeWendtCFI]

[Resq14]

[CaptainS]

"YANKEES SUCK"

Just goes to prove Beantown Fans aint scared ;)

[GeorgeWendtCFI]

ppppppppppppsssssssssssssstttt tttttttttttttt!!!!!!

Look behind you. Might be 1.5 games when tonights all over. Isn't this August? Then it must be time for the almost annual Red Sox tank.

[BFDNJFF]

1 1/2 out ! this can be a very interesting few weeks :D

[GeorgeWendtCFI]

There's not a Yankee fan that I know that is saying" My God, we can win the Wild Card"!

The schedules of both teams favor a wild weekend in Boston 9/30-10/2.

The way the teams have been playing (Sox barely playing .500 for Sept. More injuries, Schilling tanking) (Yankees pitching coming around, A-Rod, Giambi, etc) strongly favor the Yanks. The calendar strongly favors the annual late summer tank by the Sox.

Playoff ball in the Bronx!

[CaptainS]

Isn't this August? Then it must be time for the almost annual Red Sox tank.

The annual choking period begins late July early August and ends with a resurgence in early September.

Notice that it is 16-Sept-05 and no choking, yet :p

No choking yet? They haven't exactly been setting the world on fire. With as bad as the Yankees pitching has been this year, they should be leading the division by 15 games.

Oh, I forgot. I hate Manny.

[CaptainS]

Dont have to set the world on fire just maintain.

[CaptainS]

aaaHHH yes,

(old oriental voice) big unit go home now and stop talking to your self

Still up 1 1/2

[GeorgeWendtCFI]

Dude, they still won.The Big Unit fortunately is not being relied upon right now as the number one hurler. Besides, he only threw 51 pitches and can come back on short rest.

[GeorgeWendtCFI]

Seven in a row. Look out Manny!

[DianeC]

The Yankees are playing B'more the week after next (4 games I believe as Monday is from a rained out game back in June), so those should be easy wins. :p And they're in there right after Boston...

[CaptainS]

OWWW!

Both the Sox and the Pat's lost yesterday. Still 1 1/2 up though.

[BFDNJFF]

OWWW!

you ment 1/2 game up now? :D

[CaptainS]

That was yesterday :D

[CaptainS]

Today still 1/2 game up. AAhhhh Yessss

[tekpfd]

I'm trying to remember the answer to a sports trivia game - maybe you guys can help me out.

What is the only MLB team to have ever lost a series after leading 3-0?

Anyone remember?

[CaptainS]

(old guru voice)

AHHH YESSS, what series do you mean young one? penenant, championship?

Or how about these questions ...

What Team has won the most championships ?

or

what team finaly won a world series since 1918?

:D


EDIT:

and oh yeah who is now a 1/2 game ahead of Boston? :D

[CaptainS]

AGGAHHAHAHAHAHAHHGGGGGAGAGAGAG Choke,

Yet 64 days in first place isnt bad. To bad I cant blame the curse on this one.

yeah you can its an old curse maybe the bambino has alzheimer's now LOLOL :D

[Bones42]

Great scenario: When the final regular season series between the Red Sox and Yankees start, the Yankees are ahead by 3 games. They choke (again) and the Red Sox win (again).

3-0 -> 3-4

:D

[123456D]

Second the opinion the Sox's normal "fall tank" begins sometime before the all-star break traditionally...

The end of the season could be one of heck of a series if things keep going.

=========

Wonder what the mathematical possibility of...

-- Chicago complete balks the end of the season
-- Sox & Yankess finish the last game of the season, tied for the AL East...
-- Forcing a Sox & Yankees tie-breaker game to decide who wins the AL East and who wins the Wildcard...
-- With the Wildcard playing...the AL East? 9 straight Boston / New York games...a Fox Sports Executive's fondest dream, not sure if the nerves of the fans of the northeast could hold up for that long of a stretch though ;)

I *think* that scenario may still be mathematically possible :)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaannnnn d THHHHHHHHHHEEE YANKEEEEEEEES

WIN!!!


Clinch it for the 8th year in a row !! :D

[GeorgeWendtCFI]

The Fat Lady is singing her butt off. "Start spreading the news....."

For most Yankee fans, the rest of the playoffs are anti-climatic-except of course if they play the Red Sox again.

[CaptainGonzo]

Remember the words of Yankee catcher Yogi Berra...


"It ain't over till it's over!

[LaFireEducator]

Another season. Same results. And what idiot said "Change is a good thing"?

[MIKEYLIKESIT]

But it could be a WHITE Sox-Yankee ALCS.

[Bones42]

Why is it that every team in major league baseball has figured how to field a grounder....except the Red Sox?

[CaptainS]

I thought, I could have sworn, I saw another player last night, the name on the jersey was Buckner?

I cant take it anymore, I have yet to see the Sox in a championship game and now I probably never will. God love em always will but DAM :(

Of course its anti-climactic when you are playing golf in Miami instead of swing for the fences in Chi-town.

Angles 5, Yankees 3 - Final in 9 - Angles take the series 3-2.
