    With a 12 run lead, why leave Beckett out there?

    Chuck,

    I'm here. Beckett was absolutely filthy last night. Pedroia and Youkilis remain red-hot. When the Sox have them hitting in addition to Manny and Ortiz, they are very tough to beat. I still think this series goes 6 games with Boston winning, but damn they looked good last night.

    The Rockies need to win game 2 if they are going to have any chance in this series at all.

    Wondering where you were last night, lol

    Beckett is becoming pretty much as automatic as you can get. Pedroia has really overachieved for a rookie in his first postseason. If he and Youkilis keep getting on base and setting the table for the big boys, I dont even see this series getting as close as six. But, it was one game and I dont want to get too far ahead of myself.

    Lets hope the Game 6 ALCS Curt Schilling shows up tonight. Or even better, the '04 bloody sock Schilling :)

    Only Yankees are legit to beat Red Sux in a seven game series. Too bad we got beat by a bunch of bugs and more importantly, the unexpected meltdown coming from Chien-Ming Wang.

    Now I have to watch Red Sux get their second WS title in 4 years! :eek: I probably will skip the rest of series.

    I have Red Sux! I have Red Sux! :mad:

    You have "Red Sux"?? Is it contagious like the measles??

    "Red Sux" - good one, ivan, like us Sox fans haven't heard that one before, very original. :rolleyes:

    It is Yankees fans like you that make me so happy when the Red Sox do well - to see you squirm and writhe in agony! :D :D :D

    Oh and you act like Wang is this battle-tested postseason star. He ain't **** - I have never seen a player look more like a deer in headlights in my life than that dude, lmao.

    Arent you about sick of them blaming the bugs for losing to Cleveland? You were beat by a team that wanted it more. As far as I know, Indians players had to deal with the same bugs...

    Never count out a team that has Willy Taveras on its roster...

    I am. What Yankee fans conveniently forget to mention is that even if they won that game, they still would have had to win 2 more games. And it's not like they didn't have their chances - beat Paul Byrd at Yankee Stadium and force a Game 5. And it's not like the midges were there from the first inning on in Game 2. But you have to hand it to guys like ivanny - they always have some excuse when their Yankees fail. I enjoy reading them because they are such comedic gold!

    Where's the 4th Boyz 2 Men?

    I didn't really like them, but they actually had talent and class. Can't say much for all the impersonators since then.

    He actually retired from the group due to medical conditions. Remember how he always had that cane? Well it wasn't just for looks.
