There is no such thing. As big a Red Sox fan as you act.. you should know the history. Or have you never read Red Sox Century or Yankees Century. Or even anything by Glenn Stout or Ira Berkow,Charles Devens, Howard Bryant, Ring Lardner, David Halberstam... etc.

You disappoint me you lovable Sox loser you...

Is that also the reason that Houston hasn't won a single playoff series in their history... because when Houston pitchers pitch for Houston they suck in the postseason?

Red Sox fans have to be perpetually drunk .

Though this is their best chance to do it... and I think they will meet up with the Cards there.

it doesnt matter who we will match up with. we have the highest scoring offense in the league and the best rotation, and the best postseason bullpen. we will win.

No, in previous series it was the fault of Bagwell and Biggio.

And yet you guys did not even win your division...that says something. The Red Sox won the season series with the Yankees last year-and we all know what happened last year.

Your hopes and dreams will come crashing down in dramatic fashion as the Sox blow it?

Yes, we are very aware that that is coming..it happens quite a lot, in fact, I think there is a 85 year history of it.

nope. the man who started the last nite of the yankee dynasty is back to end it once and for all (curt schilling.) he showed everyone that the yanks can be beaten and he did it. now hes back to utterly crush them and he will do it, in dramatic fashion (maybe even don Larson style)

your DH is Kenny Lofton (what a joke), your 7 - 9 hitters are 3 easy outs, in other words you are playing with 7 - 9 less outs than the sox. plus no el ducky (whos come up with a lame duck arm), a scared brown who already has brown stains in his pants from the last shelling at the hands of the sox, plus a moose who cant compete with our big game lineup. jon lieber, a number 3/4 pitcher in any other lineup is your number 2 guy.

its all over. were gonna win. and once again the evil empire will fail, because the sox truly are amiercas team.

what a load of crap. this guy doesnt even compare starting pitching in his equation, and gives the bench edge to the yanks. Thats hillarious. our bench has two gold glovers, plus more speed than you can shake a stick at, plus backup 2nd basemen, backup 1st baseman, and a backup catcher who are all better than the yanks, plus a backup outfielder who can play all three positioins who is better than any of the yanks backup outfielders (do they even have one?) and a backup third basemen who batted over 280 this year.

plus his catcher analysis is crap. if captain america gets the nod cuz of his leadership, the so should varitek, who not only was a better offensive player than posada, but also a better defensive one. plus hes not afraid to get into collisions at the plate, unlike posada whos saving his face to make millions off of it when his career is over (which is very soon)

Yes, one great player can make a difference. But enough to combat 2 MVP candidates, a Cy Young candidate, and 3 Gold Glove winners?
