As I said earlier in this thread that after Boston won game five it might be over for Cleveland. It has to be a very very disappointing way to end the playoffs since its been so long since they been in there. Stick a fork in the goose he is done.
As happy as I am for the Red Sox, I do feel bad for Cleveland fans, as most Red Sox fans have been there before. It was a terrific series, and it could easily have gone either way.
I want to note that I did NOT feel sorry for Yankee fans in 2004.

I dont think ANYONE felt bad for Yankee fans in 04 man!
Great series by the Sox. They played with more passion than my Indians. They needed to heed ole Satchell's advice of 'Don't look back, someone might be gaining on you' Some tough breaks a key times in the game for the Tribe, but those happen both ways in a seven game series.
Good Luck vs the Rockies. Beware the former expansion teams, they can win the WS as well. Just ask the '97 Indians.
<< <i>So who will throw the first pitch in Game 1? Trot Nixon? >>
Haha! That's classic! I read that Trot was pretty PO'd that Millar threw out the first pitch. I don't blame him, but after the Indians shenanigans with Beckett's ex singing the national anthem I thought having Mueller and Millar come back to throw out the first pitch was a good move.
If Trot's not willing to throw out the first pitch, I'd suggest Larry Bigbie.
Can you guys believe it? Game 1 of the World Series tonight and we are in it!!!!!!!!!!!!

<< <i>Nice win, but WAYYY to early to count the Rocks out, as the local media has seemed to do already.
If Schill has a bad game, it will be a slug-fest, and Dice-K is still not solid yet. Even if the Rocks go down 3-0, they can come back. >>
I agree and disagree with you.
Yes, it's way to early to count the Rockies out, but there's absolutley no way in hell they'll come back down 3-0. It will not happen in our lifetime. >>
That's how we felt after game 3 in the 2004 ALCS. Hell after game 3 some of the Boston players were wishing the Yankees luck against the Cards. You guys had the players though to mount such a comeback. I don't know much about the Rockies, but I'd say they would have zero chance.
<< <i>Yeah, let's not start hoisting the flag just yet.
Anyway else get the sinking sensation that we're using up all our runs too soon? >>
no way. The Sox have some hot bats lately (which are likely to cool off at least for a game or two) so I believe they have plenty more runs to score! >>
DAM! I get all charged up when Barndog talks positive!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am pumped! Just got tickets and a flight to Denver - am going to Saturday night's game! Flying out in the morning. Nothing like a Red Sox Nation road trip, especially one that does not involve the Bronx!

A great moment in Red Sox history.
Congrats to the Indians, you guys put up a great fight. The game was much closer than the score indicates.
And to the Indians fans on this board - you have been a classy bunch, unlike some fans of another northeast team that shall remain nameless!
Now, let's put that Rockies streak to the ultimate test!
Go Sox!
And I agree that the Indians fans on this board have been (for the most part) very respectful. You guys played hard.
59.5 hours to the first pitch!
I want to note that I did NOT feel sorry for Yankee fans in 2004.

P.S. Watch out. I'm feeling jealous and petty right about now

Thanks a lot, thegemmintman! We've stuck with our team and pulled through!
Four more games to go! (hehe)
<< <i>So who will throw the first pitch in Game 1? Trot Nixon? >>
I suggest Luis Tiant would be an even better choice. Or how about Johnny Pesky?

Pesky would surely be a fine choice.

I don't know, if they don't win this thing, I will enter some serious depression - the treatment will be to buy lots of PSA cards.

Rudy is just trying to jump on Mitt Romney's bandwagon. I don't trust a ^%$#( thing a politician says or does. Go Sox!
They get real angry when I say first round.

Three more please.
However, being ever the cautious Bosox fan who has been burned numerous times over the years, I remember we won the first Indians game big too.
Dont' get too excited, right?....................WOW!
If Schill has a bad game, it will be a slug-fest, and Dice-K is still not solid yet. Even if the Rocks go down 3-0, they can come back.

Yes, it's way to early to count the Rockies out, but there's absolutley no way in hell they'll come back down 3-0. It will not happen in our lifetime.

Honestly guys I am pumped but there is NO WAY this series is over, we need to take this series one game at a time.
