As a matter of fact I think that the two best teams in the AL ( and therefore the best two teams in baseball ) next year will be the Texas Rangers ( if they get any pitching help offseason ) and the Yankees ( if they can get some left handed pitching help ). The Yanks will peobably try to get Carlos Beltran to replace Williams in center and move Williams to the DH position. Damn but its a shame BB season is almost over and all we have to look forward to is basketball - what a drag.

Never ever underestimate the power of money. And prestige. And the almost certainity of playing post season baseball. And - well the list is endless. Thing Big Unit. BrockVnm wrote: the Red Sox pitchers went out there and pitched their hearts out. Faulk pitched 3 days in a row and threw 100 pitches The baseball Gods just threw them a bone. Total up all the runs scored - who had the most? Total up all the hits. Who had the most ? Every once in a while these things happen. The US won a gold medal in hockey once. The Jets won a super bowl. Anomalities are what they are. Accidents of time and space. BrockVnm wrote: Their DeathStar was just destroyed for the second time by a man whose has more hair than all of the Ewoks combined Yep Johnny does look like as escapee from a Mel Gibson movie but he can play some ball. But remember - the Red Sox have now officially pissed the Yankees off and that ain't good :) BrockVnm wrote: They are locked into a lot of bad contracts Please illuminate me on just what "bad contracts" they have. BrockVnm wrote: Who are they going to sign? Pedro Who wants a washed up never do well like him ? Well the Rangers would take him but they will take anyone at this point. BrockVnm wrote: Carlos Beltran? Go ahead Yep thats my guess - Beltran to the Yanks for a 7 year deal worth about 175 mill. Can you say Bye Bye Boston ? :) If they can't outpitch them ( whcih they can ) then they will simply outscore them ( which they can ) BrockVnm wrote: Joe Torre, the ugliest manager in baseball, should retire. As Yogi once said "It ain't a beauty contest son". COmpare Joes won/loss record to any Boston manager living or dead ( as most of them are ) Enjoy your season in the sun. It will be fleeting. Now I find myself in the awkward position of cheering on the Sox because I simply hate the National League. Baseball is a funny game.

There are major differences both historical ( the national league was started in 1876 and the American in 1900 ) and in the style of play. The national league is defensive in nature while the American league is offesive. All the real hitters are in the American league. All the real weasels are in the National league ( which is composed of a bunch of real old players with not enough talent to play in the American league ). National League teams sneak out of town in the middle of the night ( Dodgers ) and all the r4eall great players are in the American league ( Ruth and Maris and Mantle and Whitey and Moose and .. wait those are all yankees :). Oh well how can you expect a hockey person to grasp the subtle but acute differences in the two. :) Richard "Under certain circumstances, profanity provides a relief denied even to prayer --Mark Twain (1835 - 1910)

Richard you crack me up, but I have to say I expect it from you. You are a typical Yankee fan. No matter what happens you can never take this historical win from us! LETS GO RED SOX!!
There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't. And to the Red Sox nation...KEEP THE FAITH

:laugh: I just thought it was odd that you'd cheer for a team you dont like, simply because they're in a league you like. In the NHL, the style of play between the East and the West is rather significant, with mostly Western teams being faster paced and more aggresive with lots of energy and excitement, and the Eastern teams having a real snooze-style of play where you bore your opponents (and fans) to death. (Can you guess which division my favorite team is in? :-D ) But even then, I'd still wouldnt cheer for the Western team simply because they're in the West. Regardless, it shows you how hockey-starved I am, that's I'm watching baseball :-D ('cept the NYY-BOS series: I watch those whenever I can because they really do hate each other!) Thanks for the info though: I was always curious about why the Jays are in the AL and the Expos *were* :(( in the NL. The kindest thing you can do for a stupid person, and for the gene pool, is to let him expire of his own dumb choices.
