I lost respect for Johnny Damon when he signed with the Yankees. I so throughly enjoyed watching the Red Sox in 2004 when they won The World Series. The players jsut seemed to have an attitude that they were going to go out and play and it didn't matter if they had long hair and beards or not. Damon seemed like he was letting the little guy down when he signed with the Yankees. It felt like he was selling apart of himself for something better and I don't think that's right.

Well, I do agree, I have lost some respect for Damon as well, for doing what he did...like you said, "selling a part of himself" and signing with the yankees.

Personally the series between the red sox and the yanks in 2004 was one of the most exciting series I seen in some time. Which is why I couldn't fully understand the moves and trades the red sox made after.

Though I am rather enjoying this years between the yanks and the indians.
 
Congratulations to the Boston Red Sox. The just beat the Angels to advance to the ACLS. The Red Sox beat the Angles 9-1.
 
Darn! I was kinda hoping that the Red Sox weren't going to be in it. (I live in Massachusetts and I'm not a Red Sox fan - I was raised a Pittsburgh fan!)

I've got a stupid question - Who's got home field in the World Series this year - AL or NL? :eek: (I know - I should already know)

I have no idea who has home field advantage. Since the changed the rules I kinda lose track of it. It was so much easier when it alternated every year but no Bud Selig had to go and change that :mad:

blackflag you can still be a Pirates fan while being a Red Sox fan :) the only time you would have a problem is if and when the Pirates and Red Sox met in the World Series.

I was a Red Sox fan when they had Vaughn, Valentin, Clemens, and Tim Neihring(sp?) on the team. I don't like this team. :(

All I know is that home field is whoever won the All Star Game. (I don't know who that is.)

OOoo......looking good thus far for the Indians. The Yanks just pulled Clemens.....hmmmmm......lets hope the tables don't turn in the later innings
 
Well its going into Game four. Scores thus far.

Game 1: Indians 12 ... Yankees 3

Game 2: Indians 2 ... Yankees 1 (11th)

Game 3: Indians 4 ... Yankees 8

For some reason the Indians didn't seem to have it tonight. Hopefully tomorrow (Monday) they will be back to the team I recognize. If not its going to be a gamble when they return to Jacobs Field for a fifth game. Honestly IMO I think the Indians had this "We need to get this game" stuck on their minds no matter what you say about not thinking like that, its in the back of your mind. Also as Wedge (Manager) said they just didn't have their best tonight.

I was upset a total of 2-5 mins and got over it, there is always tomorrow. :) LETS GO TRIBE!
 
the Yanks played with the mind set, "we've got nothing to lose and everything to gain!" Ok, well they did have something to lose, Joe Torre and a quick exit from the post season, but you know what I mean...I hope! Lets hope the Indians bring their "A" game tonight.
 
Congrats to the Cleveland Indians. They beat the Yankees 6-4 :) They now face Boston in the ALCS.
 
Yes, congrats to the Indians. Will be rooting for them in the ALCS. I hope they beat the Red Sox and go all the way to the World Series. I've got to say that I was devasted when they lost to the Marlins in the '97 World Series.
 
WOOOHOOO *breaths* Omg that was a great game. Congrads to the Indians, and everyone who supports them. :D
 
YAY Indians!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Way to go. Close call there for a bit. *breathes easier*. Can't wait to see them beat the Red Sox. They wanted the Yankees so bad. Now lets see wht happens between these two. Joe Torre out of a job now?
 
Well thats the thing about the Indians when they are good, they are good, when they stink its OUCH, when they are close they make you nerves as heck. But these guys when they want something bad enough shoot there isn't a goal they haven't accomplished. As they say they are family and team-mates.

As to Joe Torre I am not sure, some say it wouldn't have mattered if he won or not, others say it was a ploy to spark the team and management. Guess we will find out.

It was a good game, on both sides and I thought it was real classy that Joe Torre told the media that he thought that Eric Wedge was a good manager and that the Indians were tough and that they fought for this and congradulated them on their win.
