To Red Sox fans from an Oakland fan: YOU GUYS BETTER WIN!!!
I am very upset right now, as well as frustrated and angry. I don't know how much more of this I can take (though I expect no sympathy from Red Sox fans). I have no resentment toward the Red Sox. Quite the opposite. I will feel much better if they beat the diabolically EVIL New York Yankees. I will pull hard for Boston. I can't stand another year of having to sit through another Yankee World Series, as sychophant Fox sportscasters slobber all over their mostly overrated players. This happens far too often to the A's: the "Cinderella" team stomps all over us and then runs out of steam at the next level. So I say to you Red Sox fans: Your team better beat the Yankees. You better do something with this victory over the A's and not just add it to your long list of post season screwups. Please dispose of these fu****g Yankees and make this season a worthwhile one.

4. I KNOW how you feel
I've been watching my Red Sox lose since 1950. So we will try and try again to put away those obnoxious Yankees once and for all.

It's a Red Sox - Cubbies year!!!!

5. Now, that's class.
If any Red Sox team is going to shake this monkey off our collective backs, it's these guys. Thanks for your support.

8. "obnoxious Yankees"???
Nothing is more obnoxious than watching Manny showboat after his homerun... Yankees don't do that (maybe except for Rueben Rivera a bit...)

Should be a great series though...at least this will be closer for the Sox...but it will be Cubs/Yanks.

12. I congratulate the Sox
I only wish that someone classy like Nomar would have been the the deciding factor and not that prick Manny Ramirez (I have a hangnail and can't play). I'm going for Dusty Baker's Cubbies now, since he's a Sacramento kind of guy. Otherwise, go Sacto Kings!!!
