You can *feel* it’s the New York Yankees’ year just by things that are happening. The clutch hits, the pies in the face, A-Rod turning into Mr. October, calls going their way. It all points to a championship. Nothing is going wrong. Even towards the end of the season when the Yankees had back ups in the game, they were still coming from behind and winning games. Now you have Joba Chamberlain, Phil Hughes and Mariano Rivera to deal with in the post season. I “was” hoping that the Red Sox would beat the Angels because I want revenge for 2004. I want the Red Sox and I want the Red Sox, bad. They aren’t as good as last year but I don’t care. I want to see the Yankee roll all over them and squash them. I want to see A-Rod shut them up and put their fans in their place. It doesn’t look like they’ll come back from a 0-2 hole however. Their main guy, Josh Beckett couldn’t get it done. If he’s not going to come through, who from the Red Sox will? My father is coming over for 1:00 PM to take me out to eat. He usually comes over every Saturday. You should hear how happy he was on the phone that the Yankees won. That’s the first thing he mentioned as soon as he called, “How bout them Yankees?” That’s what he said. He says that because I used to say, “How bout dem Cowboys!” when the Dallas Cowboys used to be good.
We can't hit good pitching on the road for some reason. I still think the Red Sox can take care of business at home and force a game 5.
I'm hoping we can close out next game. We've got a decent track record against Buchholz and we've got Scotty K goin' against you guys. However, it is the damn Red Sox, I wouldn't be surprised to see a game 5.
Nothing would surprise me with the Red Sox. I wouldn't put anything past them. I can see them forcing a game five. They do look done however. This looks like the weakest Red Sox team in recent memory.
