Had to make me re live this huh?? LMAO! I was just thinking about how funny it is that two middle aged Jersey guys have to have a conversation as Otin and Knucklehead! That sounds like a fucking vaudeville act!hahaha!!!

Yankees better not blow it this year!! They gave it away last night.

I came here from Suldog and enjoyed your account of the series. I was born a Red Sox fan, so you know where my loyalties lie! It was the most satisfying sports event of my life and it was fun to read about it from the dark side! :)

What Yankee fans experienced in '04 was more like a week-long stay in a torture chamber manned by methodical Nazi war criminals

And they deserved every bleeping minute of it. Ah, sweet satisfaction my friend. So sweet in fact that I am smiling at every last word of your clear need to fight tears through sarcasm. Can't wait to further -relish in this glory over at Jim's place.

Believe.

Another wonderfully, written post about baseball and yet not even ONE reference to peanuts, hotdogs, or even (blech for me) beer?

Where are the gluttons and drunkards in your story?

Where are the fights in the stadiums and the beer spilling over the innocent fans who just happened to be sitting in front of the drunkards.

Lucky for them they were showered in beer.

That is a lucky thing to happen, no?

No?

I just wanted to publicly thank Knucklehead for the opportunity to relive the most enjoyable moment of my life, sports division :-)

For a Yankees fan, he's alright.

We have a friend who is a die hard Sox fan (I know, I know - time to get a new friend). He talks about this series. All. The. Time.

I'm over it. He should be, too.

I can't believe I'm about to admit this, but I went to bed that night, the night Robert's stole second, assured in the knowledge that my team was indeed toast-burned to a blackened crisp.
In other words, I missed the whole freakin thing. Never was I so shocked to wake up and learn that indeed we had won to live another day.

The entire World Series run after that was probably one of the greatest things I have ever witnessed in my entire life. The curse reversed, out first World Championship in 84 years, euphoira. It was like Red Sox Nation was high on E, strangers high fiving each other, every person wearing proudly their Red Sox colors, love and joy throughout the streets of Boston.

Nothing will ever compare to it. And as for winning the ALCS championship in the fashion that we did, by beating the "Spankees" in the greatest comeback in MLB history, it was better than winning the World Series. Although the sweep of St Louis was the final icing on top of the cake.

AND....Mr. Shilling's heroics were the stuff that baseball legends tell their grandchildren about. Books and stories will be written about what he did for us that night. HE solidified his place in the heart of every Sox fan forever and will always be a true Red Sox in our minds.

That widdle bwoody sock sits prominently in Cooperstown. Where it rightly bewongs...

Ah..finally...a fond memory instead of having to watch the Yankees in the post season while my guys sit.

Just ain't right.
