Being a die-hard Red Sox fan, I find it incredibly necessary to give this its own thread. Currently, the Sox are 5 outs away from the World Series.
I'm sorry, I must say it.

No one, sweetie. You still have 20+ championships to go.

Posted: 10/20/04 at 11:26pmAs another rabid Sox fan, I still feel like it's too early to get excited...still four outs away, and we'll probably have to bring Foulke in (god knows he's been stretched over the last three games) I still have faith in the Sox (the management's another question entirely...that Pedro stunt was NUTS!) GO SOX, GO!

Posted: 10/20/04 at 11:27pmIf the Yankees even manage to tie it at this point, this will go down as the most insane I've ever witnessed, surpassing Game 5 of the 2001 World Series.

Posted: 10/20/04 at 11:30pmI guess it's the pessimist in me. Can you blame me after last year's Game 7?!?! Though, Timlin was much more efficient than I thought he would end up being. He's been used a lot too! Here we go! Deep breath...

Posted: 10/20/04 at 11:31pmThe thing is, I'm a pessimist, too. I'm the weirdest Yankee fan, I think. I always think we're going to lose.

Posted: 10/20/04 at 11:34pmThat's the way I always am...A good defensive mentality for a Sox fan. I'm always prepared for a loss and if they pull out a win, I'm always super thrilled w/ the shock...WOOOHOO! GO Dougie!

Posted: 10/20/04 at 11:35pmI think all true fans are like that. When you care so much, it's hard not to get nervous, even if you think your team can win.

Posted: 10/20/04 at 11:43pmSorry, Plum. I didn't mean all Yankee fans. I meant the type that Rath was referring to. Not you!

Posted: 10/20/04 at 11:43pmI'm surrounded by them. Trust me. Stereotypes come from fact (in this case at least).

Racial jokes may be uncouth
But you laugh because they're based on truth

Still, I like to think that half that idiot attitude comes from the addled minds of sportswriters. (Have you gotten the idea that I don't like them yet?) Most of them have nothing resembling creative ability, so they just spew the same old crap every year. The crap depends on the city, is all.

Go Astros!
But damn, the Yankees blew it this year. If I hadn't undertaken the task of reviewing the last 8 shows I've seen to distract myself, I'd be really mad right now.

And for some reason, I had decided to put off English homework until now.

WHOSE YOUR DADDY NOW!?
Tee hee hee :o) I'm so pumped... but also tired. I'll bring this post back to life tomorrow. Night all. I LOVE THE RED SOX!!!
What is Broadway? A street? Some say it's a street. Some say it is the best street in the world. Others think its terrible. That's the beauty of it, it's terribly beautiful. Some hate it and don't know why. Others love it and don't know why. That's what makes it so wonderful, it's a mystery.

Posted: 10/21/04 at 12:07amI'm in the middle of reviewing Assassins. After that- Chicago, Frozen, I Am My Own Wife, Movin' Out, Twelve Angry Men, Last Easter, and Avenue Q- all the shows I saw from summer to last week. I'm definitely keeping busy.
