I SO GD HATE THE BOSTON RED SUX!!!!



Freaking Tampa is up 7-0 and end up loosing 8-7. Last nights win is a momentum killer. Game 6 will be very very tough. I really want Tampa to win and will be cheering them on.
I have been told to go to hell; well at least I will know everyone there!

If the Sawx come back to win the series, how do you think Boston will react when two of their teams lose championship in the same year. ;D Im a die hard Philly fan in every sport, but a part of me roots for the Red Sox. Maybe its my extreme hatred of the Yankees, or maybe its cuz of Mikey D, I dont know. In any case, Ill always root for Philly first and will be disappointed if they lose the WS.

Rob. Tampa cant own philly if they choke in the ALCS. Just saying.

No doubt, but if you told me at the beginning of the series that the Rays would win 2 out of 3 in Boston and have 2 chances to close out at home, I'd have taken that in a heartbeat.

They scored 38 runs in their last 4 games, and have Shields going tomorrow.  There's no need to panic just  yet.

I take it all back.  The Rays are clearly shell shocked after what happened in game 5 and the Sox suddenly have more confidence then they know what to do with.  If Tampa doesn't pull off a miracle of their own tonight, they're done for.

Wow what a great series and Game 7

I think it should be a great World Series!


I am really happy the Twins gave up on Matt Garza  ::)

Hell yeah.

Garza was completely money.

And David Price is for real.


Now it's time to stick it to Philly again.   ;D

Congrats to the Rays for not folding under the pressure like the Yanks and Indians.  They earned everything they got and deserve to go to the World Series.  I'll take solice in the fact that the Sox actually went down swinging and didn't give up (a bit easier to say after two World Series titles).  Garza pitched two outstanding games and beat the Sox best pitcher twice in the series, something not easy to do (although his constant spitting, made worse by the extreme closeups and HD, bugs the **** out of me.  Who the **** has that much saliva?).

Go Phils!  Do something the Eagles and Flyers couldn't and beat a team from Tampa St. Pete.

Congrats to the Rays.  Way to stick with it and pull out the victory...  Man they gave Boston a lot of opportunities to score.  Reminded me of how the White Sox couldn't score against them at home either...

(although his constant spitting, made worse by the extreme closeups and HD, bugs the **** out of me.  Who the **** has that much saliva?).

Glad to know I wasn't the only one that was bothered by that.  Was it me or did it seem like TBS was intentionally going to different camera angles later in the game instead of the close-ups of him?  It seemed like around the 6th they finally realized that he was spitting so much and tried to avoid too many close-ups.

Yuck, cant watch ESPN cuz they are riding Tampa's jock too hard, let alone every other sports media. Come Sunday, everyone will be talking about the parade down Broad St. And if by chance the Phils do lose, go ahead and quote this post with some smart ass response. Ill still be here being a homer

They were something like 200 to 1 to win the world series.
