The Red Sox have been tanking hard since the all-star break.

This weekend just cemented it.

i\'d say nothing is set in stone yet.  we got 10 games or so before the next yankees series, so if we go 7-3 or higher then that next series at fenway holds just as much weight as this past weekend.  granted, we picked a shitty time for our bats to stop working, but nothing can be guaranteed just yet.

Don\'t be surprised to see Mike Mussina back in pinstripes before the season is over.

experienced the loss and pain I have experienced,

How do you feel about them now?  You guys went 7-2 since the last series, but so did we so no ground was gained.  Gotta love the fact that we\'re playing over 0.750 since the all-star break...

well, time is clearly closing on the division, but it matters not since we got a good chance at the wildcard.  beckett is not playing up to par, and thats about all that worries me at the moment.  the bats are working fine, especially drew and bay.  the most promising thing about the red sox as of late has been clay buccholz.  

clearly the yankees have had things their way as of late, but it will be good to see if they can handle the postseason pressure as a whole.  i still the sox are still up 9-6 in the season series, so if they both make it to the alcs, may the best team win.

The Yankees are back in the playoffs. Now to secure home field advantage throughout.
Love many, trust few and don\'t be late.

- 3 against Boston
- 3 against Kansas City
- 2 against Tampa Bay

Unless we\'re swept this weekend and lose both of the other two series, I\'m not too worried.  But this is baseball, so anything is possible...

Jesus left your team several years ago, shaved his beard and is now a Yankee...  And seriously, with 26 WS championships, God is definitely a Yankee fan...

I was never a fan of that square-head anyway. Beards are cool but he looked like a neanderthal. Are you calling Jesus a neanderthal?

Also, God and Jesus probably watch games together, who knows who they really root for... but you know its the Holy Spirit who is the tie breaker. And the Holy Spirit\'s been a Sox fan since Pedro.

I can\'t imagine that the Holy Trinity would root for different teams since they are just different forms of God...
