Proud, And Still Proud, Red Sox Fan Since 1967 ...
 

Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades, but at least almost does count sometimes. The way I look at it, Jason Bay was still playing left field when Manny was playing golf, or selling his barbecue on Ebay.

And nuclear war... :D

Any love out there for the Phils?

What a bizarre final game - well, at least I could stay up and watch it..... Maybe MLB could make all games three innings! ;)

It's nice to see a National League team win it. (I've noticed several prominent American League fans haven't been around here lately...)

It seemed to be a rather bizarre series overall. But I did like the ending - a 4-inning sprint to the finish. It was exciting, relatively good baseball, and it started and finished at a decent hour where my son could watch the end of it, and see the final celebration.

Yes, right here!!!! I was 16 years old and living in South Jersey when Tug McGraw got the final out against the Royals. Mike Schmidt is still my all-time favorite baseball player.

The one year I rooted for the AL team....

Go figure.

Hey, do me a favor - next year root for the Cardinals, ok?

:D

Won't do you any good. My brother is a huge Cubs fan.

Figures.

Your bother's name isn't Bartman, is it?

Oh, never mind.

I believe his name is Petty Officer.

The thread has died prematurely, with only a passing mention of the World Series; but I obviously could not pass up posting my congrats to Dustin Pedroia!! MVP!!

Pedroia wins AL MVP!!

Shut up.

Your first and only post so far is to tell one of our most respected and intelligent members to "shut up?"

And you don't even have a silly Chinese shoes website in your sig line.

Edit: I get it now.... you must be a more respected member who just registered under a different, and new, name.

... A long time smirker ?

I guess. It's just an odd time to register and post.
