October 25, 200421 yr I'm worried. Cardinal might actually lose this series. This series will go to a Game 7, on Halloween, Bambino will strike again. But who I am kidding.
October 25, 200421 yr Author no doubt that they're in a good position, but i'd be very surprised to see them win it in st. louis
October 25, 200421 yr Looking good for the Sox, but remember the difference in Game 1 would have been a foul ball at Busch.
October 25, 200421 yr They key to winning the WS is to get hot and the Sox are on fire lately. I'd say this would be a dissapointment if Cards didn't win it all.
October 25, 200421 yr I sensed the end was near when I heard that the Yankees were moving out of the House that Ruth Built.

October 25, 200421 yr The Sox winning it all is bad for baseball. Tradition guides this sport and nothing is richer thna the curse of the bambino. The sox arent an underdog they have the 2nd highest payroll in baseball, theyve been underachievers. The next three games are in busch hopefully the sanctity of the game will be preserved
October 25, 200421 yr I sensed the end was near when I heard that the Yankees were moving out of the House that Ruth Built. 600686[/snapback] ????????????????????? 600702[/snapback] They're trying to build a new Yankee Stadium in what is the current Yankee Stadium parking area. :thumbdown
October 25, 200421 yr Author 600716[/snapback][/right] i know they were trying to, but he said it like it was a done deal, and i haven't heard it mentioned very seriously
October 25, 200421 yr This series is far from over.. Once the Sox win 2 more games then we can look back and ask "Did this really happen?" and the answer would be Yes.
October 25, 200421 yr Cards are a completely different team at home, as are the Sox on the road. With Schilling done it all comes down to whether or not the Cards can beat Pedro twice in a series.
October 25, 200421 yr this has been a bit to easy for red sox standards hope this doesn't set us up for something bad. :plain
October 25, 200421 yr ominous fact of the day: in 1986, red sox won game 1 and 2 as well 600792[/snapback] Yep they did...hopefully history will repeat its self....
October 26, 200421 yr When I was in the City this summer, the papers were full of stories similar to this one from New York Business News: July 29, 2004 Yankees plan to build new stadium by Anne Michaud The New York Yankees plan to announce within the next two weeks that they want to build a new, $750 million stadium across the street from Yankee Stadium. The new stadium would be in McCombs Dam Park. According to sources close to the deal, the team will ask for $450 million in public infrastructure investment to build a hotel and conference center, a new Metro North stop, and a ferry landing, as well as three new parks elsewhere in the Bronx. Under state law, the team must replace the parkland it uses. The team will likely seek to finance the facility by issuing tax-exempt Industrial Development Authority bonds. Sources say revenue from the new stadium would more than pay off the bonds. The Yankees were at first looking at a design that would have increased luxury boxes to 70. But the design did not work well, and the team is now planning 50 to 52 skyboxes. A spokesman for the team says the Yankees are continuing to work out the details with the Bloomberg administration and that an announcement is expected in the coming weeks. According to sources, Bronx Borough President Adolfo Carrion played a major role in bringing the city and the Yankees together. Link to story At the time, it was presented rather like a fait accompli. To be honest, though, I haven't followed up on the story. However, I vaguely remember half-listening to a similar story on ESPN last week. Does anyone have more recent (and verifiable) information?
October 27, 200421 yr Red Sox up 2-0 bambino does not approve discuss 600529[/snapback] Bambino needs to show up
October 27, 200421 yr eh, if you say so. this series has laid a big egg so far IMO. nice to see Pedro come through I guess...
