Re: Red Sox "B" Boys Young Bucks . . .
Bottom line ... #28 is not in sight.
Red Sox next year have a better chance than NY this year
Limping into the WC game is an excellent exit strategy.
Angels/Astros ... doesn't matter. NY does not close games.
Big Picture ... Jays may 'have' the Cards ... figuratively and literally.

I think we can stipulate to all those facts, so actually you had nothing new to add.

To the statement beginning "All Sox fans have..."
Actually, it's no so bad that we don't have a horse in this race now.
Unlike many, at mid-May we didn't fall victim to the blind hope of a baseball World Championship this season.
Keep in mind, nearly all Sox fans are Patriot fans as well.
John Henry and Robert Kraft held a meeting on the subject and agreed...
The Duck Boats needed maintenance from all the Championship Parades of the last decade.
Torn tonight on whether to watch further Yankee implosion to 1.5 games up...
or to watch Ravens 'rub Vicks' all over the field.

Re: Red Sox "B" Boys Young Bucks . . .
Many Yankee fans, myself included, figured the Yankees would go nowhere this season and not come close to making the playoffs. Being where they are now, a couple games up with a few left to play to make the wildcard, is a victory in itself in my book.

Oh how the mighty have fallen ! With the highest payroll in all of the American League at $219,282,196 and 2nd in all of MLB , only the L.A. Dodgers have a higher payroll . So I doubt the organization shares your view .Bubba wrote:Many Yankee fans, myself included, figured the Yankees would go nowhere this season and not come close to making the playoffs.

By the way my Red Sox are 3rd in payroll and also look to finish 3rd in the AL.

Could be a late game tonight as it's pouring at the Death Star.

Damn, you're dense. Every post I've written about the Yankees since spring training has said the same thing.SnoBrdr wrote:

Re: Red Sox "B" Boys Young Bucks . . .
bottom line is that NY is in the post season and Boston is playing golf next week......Last year both WS teams came out of the one game WC playoff.
Sox fans gave up on their team before the all star break....so much for the fenway faithful.
NY has been dreadful this week, that is true, but hopefully now they break out of the slump and go on a tear....they need to win just one game against the O's or one Houston loss to have the WC game played in the stadium...it aint over till its over..unless your a sox fan, then its over in the first half
