At first, I was a little taken back by this comment. I have to disagree with you. IMHO, the team with more heart is the one that wins. They put it all into the game and get the best resuts.

I won't go on and on about the Sox, because if the shoe was on the other foot, I wouldn't appreciate someone rubbing their victory in my face and pouring salt into the wound.

Seems like the series would be more fun if one team didn't win all the games!

If you aren't rooting for the Sox, I can see how this series would be boring.

I think Richard said it best when he said let's have a series where the umpires don't get involved.

Hugs to you Jennifer!

A great defensive play followed by a heart breaker home run.

That is baseball in it's purest form.

It's making it to the top of Everest, holding up your flag and then

having a gust of wind toss your arse over the side.

Gull says to sacrifice your socks to the Baseball gods, so that some luck will go the 'Stros way tonight.

Chant with me now. NO MORE SOXES! NO MORE SOXES! NO MORE SOXES!

I couldn't agree more! Even though the Sox won all the games, they were all extremely close games and they could have all gone either way at any point during the games. Houston has nothing to be ashamed of.

Have to admit, this is the first World Series I've watched in 43 years

and I rather enjoyed it. Can't say I'll rush right out and become a huge baseball fan, but this is the most fun Terry and I have had with a Chicago team since Michael Jordan and the Bulls.

As the rain slowly turn to snow and the grass begins it's jouney toward that monochromatic brown color-(except for that plastic crappy turf in some stadiums...)

Let's take one last look over our shoulders...

Congrats to the 'Sox, you guys rocked! "Next year", to the 'Stros, We wuz robbed, to the Angels. "You sucked" to the Dodgers. To George's team....
Stay healthy.......and to all the other clubs......practice???

Congrats to the Chiba Lotto Marines for sweeping their series with the Hanshin Lions...Bobby Valentine became the first American born manager to win the Japanese League Title.....

So, as the the lights dim in the stadium, and the last hotdog wrapper is picked up off the floor.......Remember to put the ball in the glove pocket, wrap it up with a string, put in under your mattress ----

and dream about 2006-opening day will soon be here, again!
