FLASH: these are close to meaningless regular season games this weekend. You guys are happy jockeying for a wild card position??? After being heartbroken so many times, how do you get so excited this early? You guys have been one out away from winning it all...what's the big deal about a wild card position, or a playoff series? You need to win it all in order to experience any kind of satisfaction. I don't want to see you guys peak too soon. Relax for a while, wait till some progress is made, then go crazy. You'll win a series and earn the right to celebrate soon, I'm sure.

Wait till' Minnesota kicks our butt in the first round!:huh: Its gonna happen!:(

close to meaningless games...? 3.5 games seperating for al east with 11 to go, 3 head to head... jockeying for al east is more like it.

twins are the scariest team out there( besides baltimore ), but we can take them!

We face Minnesota and we will win only 1 game......Schilling's!:laughs:

In any playoff round, you guys have the pitching advantage over the Yanks.. Hence, meaningless games. Home field is irrelevant versus superior pitching. Sox get the edge.

doom, gloom, negitivity, i sure hope the sox go all the way for the sake of a certain closet sox fan:D i'll buy ya a few cold ones!

28"- to any true sox fan no yankee game is meaningless. maybe it's part of our inferiority complex:)

Imagine that...me in a Sox cap? Drinkin's Sam's with my buddy AH, high atop the Green Monstah...:happy:

Yanks in :D

Afterhours is right. Al East Championship is at stake :D

I hope they can take the division from the Yanks and then go all the way.....but....I have no faith in them!:(

BW- that's my point: it's only the AL East at stake...nothing to get cranked up about yet. We've all been there before, right?:laughs:

I can't wait to see how Schilling does against Bonds.

I know but it is a relief, as a fan, to get stoked about making the playoffs. Joe Torre won't let his players go there so I did. hehe. And, if they did, and then lost the division it would be an interesting twist to the end of the season. Especially considering the way it began.

As well. it then would make the 1st round a wild one ....

I'm telling Torre what you said next time I talk to him.:call:

4

:D

And the Magic Number is....?
 

I only support two teams, The Red Sox's and any team that
BEATS the Yankee's!!!!!

anybody know what the magic number for the sox is now?:confused:

0, zero , zilch,nada...They are the wild card team...:)

Good that they're in the playoffs, even if it does mean the wildcard spot. Should be another interesting series if the yanks play the sox. One can only hope...

As of today.....1. If they end in a tie at the end of the season, Boston gets it due to a better head to head record .

They don't do Head to Head, There'd be a 1 game Playoff to decide

don't think it matters much now. if they did tie it would be decided by head to head record. only way there would be a one game playoff is if only one of the the teams would'nt make playoffs, since both are in it's head to head.
