Go Red Sox! Go Red Sox! Go Red Sox! →[More:]....

That is all.

Oh, and Dice K makes me crave heart meds.

We are watching. I actually forgot for a minute and asked hubby if he wanted to take a shower with me. He said no. This damn baseball is cramping my style.

I asked hubby if he was nervous and he said yes. Let's go Red Sox, I suppose.

No. Go Tribe.

Go Steelers! (Oh wait, wrong sport, nvrmnd).

Buh. Yet another double play.

I'm in the happy position of liking both these teams, so either outcome's good by me. (Oh my, Pedroia just hit the two-run homer as I was typing this. Go Sox, I guess!)

(Also, this game is the first time I'd noticed the little butt-waggle that Dice-K does during his windup. 'Tis cute.)

Papelbon!

Once again it appears I can take pride in the fact that I left Cleveland, the city of my birth, at the age of 5-and-a-half. Go Beans!

Miko, "Papelbon!" has become a term of general approbation around our home.

Sometimes I substitute "Pamplemousse!" instead. Whatever.
posted by Elsa 21 October | 22:23
I sort of feel guilty for rooting for the Sox, but Cleveland is annoying.

Go Sox!

This is getting ugly. Woo for Red Sox fans!

Did they just get a shitload of runs or am I having trouble reading the internet scores correctly?

GO SOX!!!
posted by Triode 21 October | 22:50
Yes, jessamyn. A shitload.

Impressive comeback.

Yeah, that's how I felt, too. Exciting!

I think I might like this, whadayacallit, baseball after all.

Did you people not get the message? Sport is over. It ended on Saturday.

Go Rockies. Fuck the AL.

I could not care less about baseball, but: Oh, oh, Boston you're my home! (the Standells were an LA band)
posted by brujita 22 October | 00:29
Jesus fucking Christ. Isn't there one place in the world I can go to get away from this bullshit?

I HATE BOSTON!
posted by Eideteker 22 October | 05:57
Same here, Eide, same here.

GO ROCKIES!

PREPARE TO BE SWEPT BOSTON!
posted by stynxno 22 October | 09:06
OK, now I'm rooting for the Rockies.

Also, I'm dreading the inevitable "Rocks vs. Sox" from every.single.sportscaster.
posted by muddgirl 22 October | 09:10
Such a strange game. . .The Indians got a couple bad breaks. . .Lofton was safe at second. . .so that is at least one more run. . .also, Kenny being held up at third. . another run. . which changes the game and makes late Boston batter less loose and free.

And what the hell was that Cleveland third baser doing on that pop fly. . .that is ALWAYS the shortstop's play.

All that said, I was rooting for the Sox. . .

(What do you want to bet that Coke makes a commercial with Youklis now?)

Well, danf, if we want to talk about what-ifs, didn't Ellsbury fail to catch a fly ball that Ramirez could have gotten to in time? I don't remember if that resulted in a run for Cleveland.

I missed that one. Ellsbusy (Go Beavs!) did make a nifty play in left, in the last inning, when they (wisely) pulled Manny out. He also made a good catch in center, earlier.
