10. I'm just very glad that both teams are very deserving and long overdue.
Edited on Sat Oct-22-05 07:28 PM by Zen Democrat
I'm a Stros fan, but was very glad to see the Sox get in this year.

It gets boring seeing the same teams in the Series year after year with the usual mega-millionaire prima donas. The Stros do have hometown boys Pettite and Clemens who have been there before -- but Biggio and Bagwell have been the soul of the Stros for the last 10-15 years and it's go heartening to see that they finally made it to the World Series at the end of their careers. I don't see how Bags could come back next year with the shoulder. Two top class guys who love the game. And you gotta love it that the Sox are there after so many years.

PLAY BALL!!!!!

28. I take it back he seems to be hitting everything but the strike zone.
No his doing fine. We will never win this game if we keep laving men on third base.
