*AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

YES!!!!

BOW DOWN!! BOW FREAKIN’ DOWN!! THE BOSTON RED SOX ARE YOUR DADDIES!!

i cannot believe it. cannot believe it. boston is gonna burn to the ground.

perfect postseason. perfect (‘sides putting pedro in for that short stint vs. the yankees in game 7)…

this is the ultimate, impossible-to-even-imagine way to wipe out the “1918/curse of the bambino” that has been lingering for years.

3 outs from being swept by the yankees..come back to win. and then win three more, including the last two in yankee stadium?

and then steamrolling through four straight to win the world series?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!!

so many things to point out:

*terry francona- slowly bobbing his head in the dug-out. so calm. so cool. he could’ve came out screaming and yelling when a-rod hacked at arroyo’s glove to knock out the ball or the home run was ruled a double, but he didn’t. umps reversed calls. when have you ever seen that?

*mark bellhorn and johnny damon- both were in slumps..fans were calling for both of em to sit down..francona kept em in and they both came through..

*manny ramirez and dave ortiz- a one-two punch that cannot be ignored..and ortiz wasn’t too shabby at first base…

*curt schilling- what can i say? a pitching god. i know what a torn achilles feels like so many, many props to him. just give him a white sock..he’ll turn it red his gawdamn self.

*derek lowe- lost his place in the rotation. a free agent. he had a chip on his shoulder and that was perfect. he earned himself a fat-ass contract with somebody next year.

*all the little things: the yankee hit that bounced into the right field seats for a ground-rule double (if it didn’t happen, yanks would’ve won). dave roberts’s baserunning. the bullpen. pedro coming through.

*so many folks have been waiting for this. i’m talking real, old-ass folks. cheers to all the die-hard sox fans. and hello to all the new sox fans. how could you not like this team? unless yer from nyc or st. louis, of course…

so..when i wake up tomorrow, will this all be a dream?

NEXT UP: kerry beats bush!!
