FIRST ..
Who cares — American League. Watch my Cardinals this PM. Real Baseball
Bah! That’s junior varsity in comparison.
Don’t tell me you’re Michelle’s monkey boy!
I’ve believed in my Red Sox since my grandpa introduced me to Tony Conigliaro back in ’67.
Remember, Destiny and Aura are Times Square hookers.
mmm… game 7 between the BoSox and Yankees… going to be delicious…
Go not-Yankees! (I’m a Tribe fan).
So how about a friendly bet between Frank and SarahK? Maybe one that involves doing a happy dance for the other team if you lose? Winner gets to tape it and put it on the web?
My response: Well, no one comes back from down 3-0 to force a game 7*. Oh wait, you mean the Sox just did?
*In MLB History
As a life long Cubs fan, I have to root for the Sox. Maybe their curse needs to be broken before we can escape ours!
I’m from boston.
sox have won 3 in a row.
sox are goign to win this next one.
sox are going to the world series.
who the hell watches baseball? football is the only real sport.
If the Yankees lose this year, they only have the zillion other championships they’ve bought to comfort them. Boo-hoo for them.
GO RED SOX!

Here’s something we agree on, Chris! GO CUBS! And when that fails, GO BOSOX!
Not to be confused with botox . . .
As a lifelong Pirates fan I must say that both the Yanks and Sox represent the same evil empire and hopefully both teams will lose game 7 thereby allowing the Astros and Cardinals play the real World Series!
Football? Bah! Sports greatest socialist experiment I say!
Frank,
Junior Varsity? Pullllllleeeeeeezze….
NL don’t need no steeeeekinnnnnnng DH for washed up power hitters. You are on the dark side…..
Strategy makes baseball. BTW i’m for the BOSOX … Bill Buckner broke my heart when they lost to the syphlitic pond scum NYM.
Remember that John Kerry debate line about living in a fantasy world where he dissed his homestate Sox? It would be too poetic if they went to the World Series to spite him. Only to be clubbed by W’s Astros.
i didn’t read this post any more than you read my post about boobies, i promise.
GO ANYONE-BUT-THE-YANKEES!!!!
YANKEES ARE GOING DOWN!!
Go SO…..
Ummm… boobies?
What was I talking about?
Oh yeah. Go SOX!!!

Hi this is Risasi,
I have been a die hard Braves fan from 1990 to 2002, and then became a Twins fan for last year’s season.
I came the the conclusion that it was time to cheer for an AL team this year. I chose the New York Yankees. Rather than continue to fight the losing battle, I decided it was time to join the true winners. I will be cheering for the Yankee’s tonight. So you can all rest easier.
Terry Francona: Something dark and sinister lies within this fellow, we managed to hire him into rooting for the Yanks this season. And as you can see with his track record he’s good. He will be a free agent again next year. What ever you do, just don’t have him cheer for us next year.

GO CUBS!
i for sure have to agree with sarah, yankees suck!
eh, im a mariners fan, despite their crappy season this year. so, yankees, sox, who cares? they both suck.
despite their suckiness, i do think that the yanks will win.
Baseball? BASEBALL?! Geez, why don’t we all go take some swings on the cricket pitch or something. Baseball sucks almost that bad. It’s a shame really, because I remember loving baseball as a kid. Now, after all the lockouts, strikes, greed, cheating controversies and whatnot, I really could care less most of the time. Don’t get me wrong, I think the Sox and the Yanks playing for the ALCS is cool. I think the Astros playing for the NLCS is cool. But twenty years ago, I would have cared a lot more. Once upon a time, baseball really was the American pasttime. Kids dreamed of playing in the majors when they grew up. That might still happen in some places, but not around here anymore. Most kids I know couldn’t care less. They’re far more interested in basketball or football or shudder metric football. Hopefully baseball will make a resurgence. Maybe something crazy like a Red Sox penant would help that along.
I believe that baseball is totally uncorrupted, these games are NOT fixed… and that Jimmy Carter is a beacon of hope and freedom for the entire world! HA! Hey, I’m trying my hand at blogging… someone check out my blog at http://nukethelibs.blogspot.com
Tell me what you think!
Devoted Yankees Fan since 1976.
I’m rooting for them because I want to. It has nothing to do with any of that “destiny” crap. Also, don’t insist that God is a fan of either team. God has better things to do than to worry about our little games. Just ask Kurt Warner.
“If you can stand up for your faith when you’re on top, you can stand up for it now that you’re at the bottom.”
The Yankers will lose cause A-Rod angered the Baseball Gods with his cheating..
Mongo’s Musing………
The World Series is like a Bear with a Hysterectomy (sp?)……….Neither one will ever have CUBS!
HOORAY FOR BOOBIES!!! YAY!!!
Ohh yeah… and Go Yankees!! Anyone but the redsox!! 🙂
Actually, saying that nobody has won from a 3-0 deficit is false – my Jays lost their first ALCS run in ’85 after being up 3-0(yeah, it was before I was born, but so what?)
And I’m rooting for a Red Sox-Astros WS, for a) the irony of it exactly paralleling the Presidential race, b) the fact that that means the Yankees are dead, and c) the fact that the Red Sox being in the Series means that I know in advance who will win it. Though my sense of irony tells me that it’ll be won by the Astros 4-3 on a call that BoSox fans will dispute for years to come, despite the fact thatt he umpire was right…
Oh, and to all those people dissing baseball, you have no soul.
Tsk, stupid catchup AI.
Erm, note to self, check the actual history – the Royals won games 3, 5, 6, and 7, not 4-7, so your “Never before” may actually be true. Damn…
As a Braves fan since 1980 (Dale Murphy for HOF) and a suffering Braves fan since 1995 (can’t we just skip the playoff part and go straight to the WS?) I have no choice but to root for the Sox.
Oh yeah, and my undying hatred for the Yankees who are the embodiment of Satan and his minions.
GO SOX!!!
And the Roger Clemeens could pitch game 1 of the WS versus the Redsox… then my head explodes
You’re so right.
My name is John Kerry and I approve of this message* Cut to John Kerry walking across Lambert Field
Kerry:
Tonight my home Team the Boston Red sox will face an epic battle to break the curse of the bambono against the New York Giants.
As a senator I voted 8,412 times for the Red Sox’s to beat the New York mets and as President I will break the curse of the baboni.
As President I will make sure the Red Sox defense will never be under funded, and I will never give veto power to the National football league conference.
As President I will fight the war against steroids but I will not act preemptively without passing a global sports center test.
The President has misled the Redsoxs and their fans into the wrong game at the wrong time at the wrong place.
Under our current leadership Boston will be a failure tonight because The President has made them work unilaterally to play against other teams.
So I say hope is on the Way
Go Boston beat the Knicks.
I’m John Kerry and I approve of this message* Fade…
Has no-one gotten the pattern yet? this is what the Yankees do, they wait until the other team gets their hopes up, then crushes them in a final, last strike rally that brings down the house. Besides, in addition to Frank’s correct assertion that
“No one comes back from 3-0!”
There is also this fact:
1918!
LET’S GO YANKEES!
GO ATHLETICS!!
Fact:
Today is Mickey Mantle’s birthday, therefore, Yanks win and the curse continues!
No matter what happens, this world series will be between two teams a majority of the country don’t give a damn about.
Or maybe I’m just bitter because the Braves kick their own ass almost every year they make it to the playoffs…
I am a devoted yankee fan for life, but this series has made me cringe (as well as stay up later than I should on a school night). In some ways, I think if the Yankees lose, it’s what they deserve… On the other hand, I hate the bosox and long live the curse. Hopefully they lose in the 13th inning tonight on a walkoff home run by Aaron Boone -, er I how about Bubba Crosby.
Frank:
How do you like your crow?

GO BREWERS!
lol, KIDDING GUYS!
This Exiled Texan is all about the Astros. WOO!
Just another Cubs fan stopping by in support of the RED SOX! GO “spankee” some YANKEES!!!! GO RED SOX!!!
-oh and go Cubs-next yearsigh
Barb in the Chicago ‘burbs
Yankees suck!
say, Frank, what’s the score?
Poor Frank. As a good Catholic, you should’ve realized that the team with Jesus was bound to win this game.
Of course, the Sox will probably lose in 5 in the WS, but this is pretty sweet.
Yay for B(.)(.)Bies!!!
It appears that boston is whooping some serious booty on the yankees tonight. Guess we can go ahead and toss out the history books. Next year, we’ll have a subway series, in chicago (they do have subways, right?), and thus both curses will be broken. Of course, after the yankees will proceed to win 3 straight series and we’ll be back to normal.
We have a number of subways here in the Windy City…but alas, the curse of the Billy Goat will reign supreme and the Cubs will always suck
Here’s my final thought: OUCH. Sheesh, Frank, could you have been any more wrong? Do us a favor and pick Kerry to win 🙂
=D
Ouch, frank…..thats gonna leave a mark!
mac
Not even close. Someone forgot to tell the ‘idiots’ they couldn’t win.
And to think, the Yankees even pulled out Bucky F’in Dent to throw out the first pitch. Sign of desperation.
I hear that if you marinade it overnight in a light vinegrette and slow cook it in a crock pot that crow can be quite tender.
Ouch. You must be hurtin’ about now.
Wow, you really pulled off the Bond-villan evil laugh at the end of the post there, right down to being shown up witin about ten minutes of making your astoundingly arrogant prediction.
Haw-haw!
Just some good-natured ribbing:
Next time, perhaps you should leave the room after the laser cuts Bond in half…
Remind me never to listen to your predictions again.

yeah, frank, and we didn’t need the Revolutionary War, either.
how about a new feature:
“Other Predictions I have made that were really, really, really stupid.”
p.s.
unfortunately, i made the same prediction to my daughter. boy, do i feel really, really, really stupid.
HAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA
HAHAHAHHAHAAHAH
The dynasty started to fall in 01, and tonight, it was completly destroyed
GO BO SOX!!!
