To My Yankee Fans - Do Not Despair
We have the Red Sox right where we want them. They're full of themselves. They're cocky, arrogant, and ripe for another huge loss.

The curse lives on.

2. The Yanks got all the shitty play and the Sox got all the big hits
OUT of their systems. Clemens is NOT going out like a punk tomorrow night.

7. He came in like a "punk"
he'll go out like a punk. I'm going to enjoy seeing him humiliated at home, in his last game, by Pedro

buh bye Rogah!

8. you'd have someone tombstoned for that?
He's merely speaking the truth, the bambino has a sick sense of humor...he wants the sox to lose game seven in a late inning.... something to the extent of a ground ball rolling between a 1st baseman's legs :evilgrin:

4. I told you the Yankees had their hands full...
This Yankee team is beatable in October, at home no less, and the Sox have their rested ace on the mound for Game 7.

Pedro has a chip on his shoulder, and the NY fan razzing will only motivate him further. Nommie's and Meuller's bats have come alive, at last.

Worry, Yankee fans...

5. Don't count on it, pal
Pedro is on the mound, and the antagonism only makes him stronger.

I would love to see the Sox popping champagne at Yankee Stadium!

6. despair is not part of the game in NY...
The normal routine is 1. High expectations, 2. Over confidence, 3. shrugging shoulders at losing (which will always happen more than winning), 4. And vowing to return next season with a renewed vigor (like most MLB fans, regardless of team).

The saddest moment for me is being left to watch the Knicks and/or Rangers as the only alternative. :cry:

10. losing always happens more than winning?
Both of the teams won alot more games than they lost this year.

Sorry, its just that this is the second time I've seen that phrase today.

12. The Sox have the momentum now and Pedro is gonna be cookin!
Todays win was inspirational for Boston and like the 86 Mets they will capitalize on the Yanks blowing a late lead in todays game.
Pedro has something to prove and he will do that in a very positive way.

13. What a "projection" you are giving about Sox fans.
"They're full of themselves. They're cocky, arrogant". Gimme a break man. If thats not projection I dont know what is!

23. Wasn't it Yankees in 5?
I can't wait for tonight-my nerves and stomach are a mess!

Pedro is good at revenge-and hopefully Roger will implode early.

20. I'd be more apt to say
... momentum is on their side.

They have a flair for dramatic come backs. The Yanks have given them a chance for yet another one.
