I dont even like baseball... but this is some good sports right here. I hope they pull it out, I still think the yanklees are a better team but Im rooting for the underdog :thumb:
I'm a long time redsox fan, but I'm smart enough (or skeptical enough???) to know they are probably NEVER going to beat the yankees. I just wanted a good series... something like last year's ALCS. The first 3 games were very disappointing (ok, game 2 wasn't toooo bad), but these last 2 games have been very good... just the kind of stuff I was hoping for. Plus it helps that the sox won both of them.

It wouldn't surprise me if the winner of this series loses the world series. They are gonna be drained emotionally and physically when this is over.

Rochester's minor league hockey team is getting record attendance this year.
That's the thing. Hockey won't die. Maybe the NHL will die, but so what, really? IMO sports would be better off if the money factor were removed. They would again become fun *games* as opposed to big business.

I still probably wouldn't watch, though......

What is this lockout you are talking about? Hockey is my favorite sport to watch, is there some crazy thing going on with the NHL right now that I'm not aware of?

one refreshing aspect of living in ireland was watching the hurling and gaelic football games. the teams are all comprised of amateurs from the various counties, and have day jobs. and they play their hearts out.

The NHL didn't have a salary cap, so the owners locked out until the league puts one in.
