I HOPE YOU FUCKERS PULL THIS OUT!

Red Sox fans want the fucking Yankees, not the Indians. For the first time in my life, I am actually rooting for the Yankees.

really?!?!? i want the yanks bounced out as soon as possible. hoping for tonight. maybe steinbrenner will fire him before he walks down the tunnel to the clubhouse.

torre using joba for 2 innings last night is going to hurt tonight.

will be interesting to see what chien-ming wang does on 3 days rest. the yanks best hope is that his sinker actually sinks tonight unlike game 1.

Game 5(if there is one) can best be summed up in 2 words: Sabathia & Carmona

i totally agree, but i would figure no cleveland indians fan (or anti-yankees fan) wants the series to GET to a game 5.

***edit***

actually, i take that back. i hope the series goes to a game 5 - a six-hour, 18 inning game where everyone is used, including position players that need to come in and pitch, so the ultimate winning team's roster is so screwed up come this friday night in boston vs. josh beckett and the red sox.

Yeah, if the series goes 5, the Sox will either face Westbrook if you figure both CC and Carmona pitch for the Indians in Game 5 or either Mussina or Hughes in Game 1 on Friday. I'll take my chances with Beckett against either of those.

speaking as a tigers fan who has spent the season watching a future all-star dominate (verlander), id take my chances with beckett against anyone. i've never seen anybody like him.

Lineups are posted. MWicz starts, no surprise with Wang on the mound. Matsui starts at DH, Giambi on the bench. For the Indians, Paul Byrd gets his personal catcher tonight, Kelly Shoppach, which moves Martinez to 1st, Garko to the bench to start the game. Martinez will probably move behind the plate when Byrd leaves the game, but that could be dangerous. Do the Indians have a 3rd catcher, or an emergency guy if Martinez were to get hurt after Shoppach leaves the game?

Phil Hughes is being interviewed live on the YES network right now

I'm tired as hell, but last night was fucking awesome! I'm glad I made the drive up and back for the game. Hopefully I'll be doing it next week for ALCS Game 4

I'd play Westbrook on Friday against Beckett, if we are to make it, and save Sabathia & Carmona for Dice-K or someone else. Beckett will be pitching on full rest, at Fenway....I don't even know if Sabathia could out-duel him unless he got incredible run support.

hey, where's Allie tonight?

Hey!
here I is Thanks for thinking of me!


Ok let's recap

Johnny f-ing Damon, Hell yeah baby
My baby DJ is in a little slump but he's due, he's coming out strong tonight

Hughes was IMPRESSIVE. I agreed w/bringing in Joba, we had to have that one...he couldn't rely on anyone else in the bullpen
I don't like the way George is running his mouth about Joe but that's vintage George, that's the way he does things. Apparently, it worked. Joe doesn't deserve all that though.

I liked the idea of thinking of starting Moose too, but Wang has been the #1 guy, I think Moose will be in the bullpen and ready to go if Wang has any trouble.

Gosh what a relief it was to be WOOO HOOOOING about a victory! Geesh!!!!
Go Yankees!!!!!!!!!!

PS-Roger knew he didn't have jack, you could tell in his interviews. He was running on fumes. We're lucky he 'only' gave up 3 runs. He shouldn't have started.

Ron Villone? Oy

They said they took him out last night b/c he pulled his hammy again. I think he still wasn't 100% even when he started....


well let's take 1 step at a time..

stickboy

yea...hamstring...woulda been nice if we made it to fenway and he pitched one last time,but fuck it, whatever its not about him anymore...lets just win!


I like the poll espn just had

which is the most hated team in america

cowboys
or
yankees?


thats a joke right?


ok, cowboys have only 5 championships, we have.....I forget...like 26 and counting and I mean nobody hates the cowboys in football like the red sox and the fans hate us. Theres more reasons to be more hated...I think I take pride in that! (could be a certain arrogance we have ...its not our fault, the yankees gave us that right!)
Im gonna go vote yankees!

I don't know enough about football to comment accurately but it's not just Sox fans that hate us! Everybody seems to hate us!:)

I know the Cleveland folks are not fans of us


for Clemens I would love to see a Yanks Red Sox ALCS
I bet he'd find a way to get himself in a game in Fenway

edit: Oh I see he's off the roster altogether. Wow.

LOL!
what's to brag about the Marlins? They've won 2 championships in 10 years and they eliminated the Mets? Whoop dee doo.
Ask him how Josh Beckett is doing

that is so true, I saw the Marlins lowlights on the news down there and the stands stay EMPTY!!

Do you have the season pass to see the YES Network? Michael Kay just interviewed DJ. He said he likes Cleveland and he wants to go back!

And Paulie is working for them too..he is literally shocked Wedge is starting Byrd instead of Sabathia.
