And the Magic Number is..... ?

We' have to get this thread going.

Both the Yanks and Sox have Magic Numbers right now.

Looks like the Yanks have two of them

Just end it already dammit!

I am all stocked up on aspirin, alcohol, and band aids for all you guys when you the Sox fall and skin their knees again!

"Wait Till' Next Year......Again!" banners and bumper stickers are being printed now and should be done the same time the Red Sox are!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

SKD....putting down some cushion to pad the fall! Thats what most typical Sox fans are like.....always waiting for the other shoe to drop, never confident 100% that we will win it all......like Yankee fans are! Yankee fans not only expect it....they demand it! Damn Yankee fans!

still the same for old NY.

Sox could (and I say could) get them by Monday

but then again it could go the other way, no ?

NY needs a win before the sox series

Go SOX...... and I will never be a fair weather fan, make it or not they are MY home town team. I would never ever be a spanks fan.. " I can wait, and I will never tire of waiting.." Sweep this weekend.......It could happen....No "Truer" fans than Sox fans, real baseball fans...

Used hard and put away dirty....
