    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!

  • Man, what a weekend!

    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!

    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. image

    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. image

    I dont think ANYONE felt bad for Yankee fans in 04 man!
  • Congrats Red Sox Fans! A well earned victory to move on to the World Series image


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

    Thanks a lot, thegemmintman! We've stuck with our team and pulled through!

    Four more games to go! (hehe)

    So who will throw the first pitch in Game 1? Trot Nixon? image

    I suggest Luis Tiant would be an even better choice. Or how about Johnny Pesky?

    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.

    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.

    Pesky would surely be a fine choice.

    Go Bosox! Even Rudy Giuliani (?sp) is rooting for the Sox!

    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. image

    Rudy is just trying to jump on Mitt Romney's bandwagon. I don't trust a ^%$#( thing a politician says or does. Go Sox!

    Go Sox, I'm pumped, my parents are Yanks fans, trying to convert them.

    They get real angry when I say first round.

    Lead-off homer for the Sox. With Beckett pitching it might be over already.

    The Sox are going to go thru the Rockies like Taco Bell. If it could end in 3 games, it would. image

    To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

    Three more please.
  • bxbbxb Posts: 805 ✭✭
    WOW! (and I hate that word)

    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!

    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 actually fell asleep way before the game got out of hand, I woke up this morning and was like WOW! image

    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.

    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!
