Okay, so when the Sox and yanks play, will the loser congratulate the winner? That will show if the team has class or not...

Apparently Larry Walker (of the Cards) is a big hockey fan and hockey teams do congratulate each other in the finals. So he talked to Tony LaRussa (Cards mgr.) about it, who in turn, talked to Jim Tracy (Dodger mgr.) before the series. At that point they talked about it but didn't for sure agree to do it.

Then when the clenching game ended, LaRussa made a handshake signal to Tracy, who nodded and then they all shook hands.

Cool!

I don't see the Sox and Yankees ever congratulating each other, there is too strong a rivalry there

lol, Dfennessey, that sounds really cute! Ginguh deah, thank you for opening this place for Red Sox fans to meet and mingle. I'm a little sad that I won't be online again until after the Red Sox are crowned World Champs, but you know I'm here in spirit. I'll be watching as much of the Series as I can, between wedding stuff, in California. My dd says I'll be surprised at how many Sox fans there are out there. }

(We do agree on the opinion that the Sox and Yanks won't congratulate each other because of the strong rivalry.)

Well Ms. Mak Darlin, I guess Sox fans need some consolation, so they need a place to cry. Enjoy your dd wedding and have a great time. So at least you won't be too sad at the loss

I am a customer service rep and I talk to people all over the country that are rooting for the Sox to win. There are more Red Sox Fans in this country than there are Yankee fans

the best part of Red Sox fans is that we all have faith in our Boys of Summer

Okay, I understand there is rivalry. But why can't these men show real balls (or class) and still congratulate the winner? I think saying there is a rivalry is a cop out.

I also think most of the country does root for the Red Sox. The Yankees have been a World Series hog for too long...

YAY YANKEES! Thanks to my dad, I have been a Yankees fan since I was knee high to a grasshopper. When I was in elementary school, I told everyone that I was going to marry Reggie Jackson when I grew up!

I don't consider it being a hog when you Win it. Nobody is giving it to them, they win it. And that is because they are
The Best!!!

Here is what I hope happens in the AL Championship series...

Boston goes on a quick three games to none lead and the Yankees are back on their heels. Steinbrener is annoyed and rumors about team rancor has he media chattering. The Yankees nonetheless manage to pull out game 4 at Fenway in a squeaker. Game five is easier and it appears the Yankees have gotten their groove back better than Stella ever did. But then they have to face Schilling, who is pitching out of order, because he is convinced he can win the game almost singlehandedly. He is wrong and the series is tied at 3-3.

It all comes down to game seven. Boston scores some early runs against the Yankees because of bad pitching and a home run against El Duque, who is having an off night. The Yankees are down 5-2 in the bottom of the ninth. You know the rest. No more talk of Buckner or Aaron f-ing Boone. Up comes Jeter to hit a grand slam.

Bye bye Sox. Punked as always.

And Jeter saves the day..... Man, I love Jeter. How can you not like Derek Jeter? The man is just the right mix of hot, cute and sexy.

I still remember when he guested on SNL. He did a great job in the Yankees' wives skit. 'member that? He played a Yankees wife and the other wives were dishing on the players and they said, "Derek Jeter is so hot," and he said, "I dunno. He looks kind of like a cross between the Rock and a muppet!" ROFL!
