Hate to say it...but the Red Sox won't make the playoffs this year
We're playing scared, our pitching is folding up...and Christ, Toronto is playing like they have a shot at the division lead.

Cleveland winning tonight, Yankees winning tonight. Sox already losing.

I think the inevitable outcome is clear. If the Sox lose tonight and the Yanks win, we have to sweep them. Not going to happen.

1. And they weren't going to come back from 0-3 in the ALCS
Aw come on, Will. These are the Red Sox. The fans don't give up on them this easily.

That being said, they're playing like shit lately. I don't feel comfortable but I'm not giving up just yet. And what's with the Jays anyway? They're beginning to bug me!

3. looks like it my friend
they lost the nice lead they worked on so hard earlier this season, and when you give the Yankees an inch, they'll take the whole damn mile. So far the Yankees are beating down on the hapless Os--nother team that simply collapsed with so amny problems... :eyes:

One game back. And you know what that means? A one game playoff is possible on Monday. Anybody else remember 1978?

10. Heh...Will, you and I think alike.
Start preparing for the worst early, and if things change, then so be it. Sheesh, I should have been a Red Sox fan...

Of course, I was an Oilers fan until they went belly up...so...
