    Yeah, cause batting A-Rod 8th did the Yanks a world of good.

    How was this a chokejob? The better team won.

    You are probably the most irrational person I've ever come across. Actually, I shouldn't say that. Most fans around here are. But, come on, chokejob? YOu've got to be kidding me.

    Also, I love your illogical thinking. 2 runs over 5 inning = great start. 3 runs over 7 innings = horrible. Unbelievable.

    Had we not been robbed in game 2, and fuckface had pitched Beckett in this 7th game, we would have won. So, therefore, the Sox are a better team that fucked themselves.

    Had the Yanks sold their souls to the devil, they would have won. So, yeah, the Yanks are the better team.

    Thanks pookie, I'm flattered.


    Yes, chokejob. We dominated in game 1, should have won game 2 if not for some blind umpire making idiotic calls. Then the Sox decide to get intimidated by that idiotic call, and submit to the Rays' thrusting onslaught, and its a miracle they didn't lose in 5.

    Nah, luck wasn't on your side.

    The Sox lost by 2 runs in a game 7. It's not like they were blown out. I'd amount it to a coin flip, the Sox just wound up on the losing end.

    I hate the Sox, yes cause I'm a Yankee fan, and the way Lester was dealing early, I was scared myself.

    Games 3, 4, 7, and 7 innings of 5 we couldn't hit shit. Had nothing to do with luck. We were probably lucky to even make a series out of it.

    Lester didn't do 'horrible', he would have been better suited to pitch game 6, Beckett would have responded a lot better to the game 7 stage.


    The hitters had a lot of fault tonight too, had they gotten to Garza more early on, who knows how long he would have lasted.

    Yup, that's how we should all be thinking.



    I don't want to be like the Cubs fans.

    I think Kazmir is currently hurt, and will have surgery next season after trying to pitch for about six weeks.
