Red Sox vs Rays

I think the sox have it now since TB lost it again....

I hate to say it but the Rays were out gunned tonight, just out played.

I am not yet ready to count out Tampa Bay. That being said, I believe that winning in the playoffs is a learning process in knowing how to deal with the extra pressure and the exhaustion of playing a long season and still having to play more. I think that the advantage in game 7 goes to the Red Sox because in this new century there is no team that is more battle tested or experienced in dealing with adversity.

I love how this man knows what I was thinking too! I just can't say it in such a smart way.

Getting ready for game 7 tonight. Got my beer glass chilled in the freezer, Sam Adams Octoberfest nice and cold, and cant wait to see Jon Lester pitch lights out and the Sox on their way to the World Series.

Man I loved it when the sox came back from down 3 to beat the yankees and finally snapped the curse. But enough is enough, the sox are now no longer lovable underdogs, they like the cheating pats are totally hateable. Go TB, get some new blood in there against the Phils and then we can have a world series with two truly likeable teams.

I will agree that the Phils are likeable, the only team with that attribute in the state.
