I said sox in 6, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's in 4 or 5. Based on last nights game, they might call it in 3.

I bet Sox waste Rockies in Game 1. Like 13 to 1.
Any takers?

Well that would just be silly...I wouldn't wish for any team to be that humiliated.

I love the Red Sox. I can't wait for them to win the World Series.

Even better, if they do win, I get free furniture (a bedroom set and sectional couch). Anyone who lives around Boston should know what I mean. thank you Jordan's

I heard about that. I bet the guy who came up with that promotional gig is going to be looking for a job.

Jordan's — like most companies that run such promotions — has taken out prize indemnification insurance, which covers the payouts if the team wins the World Series.

Boy, big hitters those Rockies.

AAA teams are fun to watch. Will they have cameras at coors?

I believe in the other thread I made mention of the number of walks Jiminez has thrown since he was activated.

It was one another one of those walks that lead to the 2-1 lead.

But much better pitching tonight from the Rockies bullpen, I'll give em' that.

At least they didn't completely embarrass them this time. Now they just have to lose all the games in Colorado, then come back and win both at Fenway and my goal will be reached!

I'm fine with this scenario because Smash is way over there and can't strangle me, haha.

I say Sox in 6, especially now they're up 2-0 - gotta give the Rockies a chance. But after last year I'm pretty sure everyone should've learned that 0-3 means nothing!

To teams from Boston. Not other places. Let's not get confused, now.

You see Boston is what I like to call "Winnerville". Here in Winnerville, we don't sweat being down 3-1 or even 3-0 in a 7 games series. Our teams win, it's what they do. 14 point Superbowl underdogs? No problem. This is Winnerville, where sixth round draft picks turn into flawless injury free quarterbacks who date supermodels. I realize it might no be understandable to people in, say, Philadelphia, but here when the local college team is down by 10 with 2 minutes left, we just shot the TV off and know we'll wake up to the highlights of the victory the next day.

Yep, in Winnerville the player to be named later thrown into your trade for a pitcher who will become the best pitcher in baseball hits 120 RBI. Your team's 5'7 2nd baseman turns into the rookie of the year, and your unknown Japanese relief pitcher making $2 million a year is unhittable while he sets up for three innings for your unhittible closer who was converted from starting.

Yup, it's just like that in Winnerville. You trade for an average power hitter and he becomes the greatest clutch hitter of his era. You get to pick up the best WR in football for a fourth round draft pick and a pay cut. Your big deals all work out well too. You gamble draft picks on an assistant coach from New York and he becomes the greatest coach of all time. Your $20m a year hitter delivers. Strange thing though...the hockey team still blows.

Well, at least we still have something to complain about.

I gotta say, when the wife insisted that we watch the season premiere of "Scrubs" (DVR'd, no less, after she got off work) at around 11:30 I told her "Honey, if the Sox manage to lose this game in the next 20 minutes I swear to God I'm never watching TV with you again."

I'm not saying it's a lack of faith I have, but this game was actually close.

I will say Red Sox in three. Because after three games I won't fucking care and I'll be looking for hockey or football(Nobby's football!)

I know Rockies fans are new at this, but I'm not sure waving white flags of surrender is appropriate.

I told BT to fear the bat of Matsuzaka. Wasn't a HR, but I'll take it.

(again, in the other thread.)
