That was way too close to loading the bases in the 9th.
They got lucky it didn't turn out worse. But how fun would it be to go out in NY tonight?

suckers.

Agasthya · Oct 20, 2004, 12:24 AM

Whatta game.

Amazing effort from Schilling. Great game.

G4ME · Oct 20, 2004, 12:40 AM

GAYROD

GOD BLESS AMERICA.

as a die hard yankees fan it pains me to say this, but nicely done BoSox. totally respectable and even more amazing.

at this point i dont even care if we win or lose, i just want to be able to sleep again.

AlfaMunky · Oct 20, 2004, 12:48 AM

Yes, yes. Red Sox make history. Forcing this game 7 is awesome. The curse may finally be gone. Those 7 innings from Schilling were great. Storybook, pitching with a blood soaked ankle. Great game and it didn't take 14 innings.

Lancer409 · Oct 20, 2004, 01:04 AM

WOOOT ... this series is giving me goosebumps .. i was so dissapointed at the 3-0 ... thought yankee's might sweep .. or more likely go 4-1 ... now it looks like they might finally win for once .. Go SoX

Yeah, very impressive umpiring to say the least...

JHromadka · Oct 20, 2004, 09:46 AM

Today is going to be a great day for baseball. Game 6 of the NLDS and Game 7 of the ALCS. Our office will have TVs wheeled in for us to watch the Astros game. The anticipation in Houston is so high right now. It's going to be a long wait to 3:00!

SOLIDAge · Oct 20, 2004, 11:47 AM

Game Seven.
we all knew it would come to this...to easy to sweep.

Well it's like a national Holiday here in New England...for both sides.
No class or work for me tonight...it's game time.

Yankees
Sox

Brown
Lowe

Game 7, whoever wins? i'll be drunk.

wdlove · Oct 20, 2004, 12:01 PM

The Red Sox are on a roll. Have made the history books by being the 1st team to come back from a 3 game deficit forcing a 7th game.

and then a heart crushing defeat

Babe come out tonight

G4ME · Oct 20, 2004, 12:41 PM

also, they are 5-0 in game 6 when its do or die.

nredman · Oct 20, 2004, 02:21 PM

GO RED SOX!!!!!

F the yankees

Toutgood · Oct 20, 2004, 02:41 PM

as a kid I remember being absolutely devastated when the Yankees lost in 81. Losing tonight would be a hundred times worse- only because it would be such a mark of shame we'd hear about it forever.

I hate what George has done to our team, I hate how they've bought up all these expensive stars, I hate that we have NOBODY in the minors (except maybe that catcher). I hate the circus of it all.

Yet it's killing me just the same. If we lose I'll be too ashamed to wear any Yankee gear again. What a frigging disaster. Those guys just look beat-you can see it in their eyes-from Jeter to Torre to Mariano Rivera.

My girlfriend is sleeping at a friend's house tonight....

Enjoy, Yankee haters-this may be your finest moment!

dreilly1 · Oct 20, 2004, 06:58 PM

I think I want to see St. Louis hold on to their lead, because these two teams deserve to be seen by the entire country in Prime time tomorrow....

Agasthya · Oct 20, 2004, 07:21 PM

I want to stab Jason Isringhausen in the EYE.

You could "choke" him instead...oh wait...

Frankly, the collective "you" (yankee fans) would deserve to hear about it forever, only because yankee fans have an annoying habit of degrading every other team in baseball when given an opportunity. I've seen people in yankee caps slow down and pull over in their cars to shout "Mets Suck!" at me when I wear my cap on the street.

Do us all a favor and put poor Tim McCarver out of his misery as well.

Tell him "Brandon Arroyo sent me, bi-otch!"

By the time it's on, we'll have seen most of the Simpsons Holloween Special

dreilly1 · Oct 20, 2004, 07:57 PM

I have to admit, I still get a chuckle out of the "Poo Holes" thing...

They must have had the pleasure of taking in a game at Shea...

The Mets are a joke, who's running that circus anyway. But yeah, Yankee fans can be pretty obnoxious - but I got the same treatment from Met fans from about 86-92.

But thanks for reminding me of 2000, ahhhh that feels better. And hey, I rooted for the Mets in 86...

Positive thoughts...

6-0 now, way early but I like the way things are going so far.

Not bad for starters.

Mithras · Oct 20, 2004, 09:47 PM

The professor in my graduate class said he'd raise everyone's grades if the Red Sox win the World Series.

A few days ago I was resigned to having to study for the midterm. But I think my chances are looking up! Go Sox!

pman68 · Oct 20, 2004, 09:53 PM

DAMON is BACK!!!!!

8-1

Toutgood · Oct 20, 2004, 09:53 PM

It's ovah.

dreilly1 · Oct 20, 2004, 09:56 PM

Remember, folks, these are the Red Sox we're talking about. And there's plenty of baseball left. I wouldn't call it a win until after the team charter leaves LaGuardia.

Toutgood · Oct 20, 2004, 10:00 PM

No, let me get on with my life.

4 championships in 5 years.

Why not break up this overpriced buncha chumps and start over (I'm talking about you ARod, Shef, Brown, Giambi (*retire*), Lofton) and rebuild.

Vasquez, he'll make a fine #5 starter one day...

Now THAT sounds like something a Sox fan would say!

We LOVE to hate em, and love em, and hate em, and love em...

If the score was 20-1 in the 9th I'd still watch with bated [sic] breath!

lord help me. I'm soooo sleepy!

We had guys at work leave early today to sleep off yesterday and prepare for tonight.

go soxies!

Sounds a lot like the love-hate relationship that Mets fans have had over the past few years. Except, of course, that the Red Sox heritage of futility is just a little bit older, and goes directly through Bill Buckner's legs.

Ouch!

wouldn't you hate to be remembered like that despite everything you might have done in your life.... so sad.
