Francona does not have what it takes to lead them to the championship. His move to remove Lowe was pathetic, I can not believe the stupidity of bringing in Pedro and the crowd back in to the game.

Managers in baseball oftentimes win by sticking with their instinct. McKeon did it last year by putting Beckett in on three days rest and letting him finish the game. Time after time managers that stick to what got them to their position win, while those that overthink, and make moves to swing momentum to the other side are destined to lose.

*sigh*

Yanks choked that one away... F'in gave the series way.

Congrats RS fans, you deserved the series way more than the Yankees. Even after the 19-8 drubbing your team found a way to come back and make history.

<- A sad, but not bitter, Yankees fan.

EDIT: Heh, my 500th post, and on such a sad note (at least for me and my fellow Yankees fans 😛 )

I agree with this completely. We got outplayed, plain and simple. There's very little we can say for the last 4 games, and those are the ones that matter.
Kudos RSN (at least, those that are faithful throughout the season and not just the playoffs)
We'll see you next year.

If they bring in Pedro, I will be really pissed. Firstly, you need him for game 1 of World Series. Second, why do you take out a pitcher that has been unhittable. Third, the curse will continue, every time the Sox have a chance to do something special they make a horrific managerial move. DO NOT PUT PEDRO IN, they need to save his arm for the World Series, especially with Shilling hurting bad. St Louis and the Astros can hit, they are going to need their starting rotation at full speed to have any chance at winning the World Series. Or even worse the Yanks can mount a comeback, the fans will be all over Pedro if he takes the mound in the 7th.

 
It's :beer: time! I'm still in a bit of shock at the way the game went. Tomorrow it'll sink in more. Here's to all the Sox fans who stuck with the team through thick and thin this year. On to the WS! 😉


There have been some good Yankee fans on this board. It's been a civalized and friendly discussion for the most part, thanks. Now off to celebrate, maybe drink what Theo's drinking. 🙂 🙂 🙂

Joe Buck made a good point, Steinbrenner goes out and spends 15 Million dollars on Brown, another 10 million on Javier Vazquez this season. All that is worth 8 runs against them on the biggest stage. Quality investment.

Joe Buck is also a biased asshole.
