disposableheros · 10-09-2004, 09:14 PM

Yankees in 6

through start of game 1 and post #64:

17 say sox
10 say yanks
1 says either

11 say six game series
8 say seven
5 say five
2 say sox sweep

1 says six or seven

1 says five or six

This is the Red Sox's year. Boston in five...

UngratefulDead · 10-09-2004, 09:41 PM

It is Boston's year, but the Yankees aren't that weak, Boston in six.

Vris · 10-09-2004, 09:55 PM

Boston in 7. It will probably be another classic.

disposableheros · 10-09-2004, 09:57 PM

man, wheres sporr when you need em?

you've all been reported

SpitFire Mac2 · 10-09-2004, 10:02 PM

I'd say Boston in 5 the Yankees pitching will blow it for them.

benchwarmer · 10-09-2004, 10:15 PM

I think the sox will pull the monkey off there back and win this series. However, i do think it will go 7 games. A Sox/Yanks series just wouldn't be right if it didn't go seven. hehe

Yankees in 7, on a home run by A-Rod in the bottom of the ninth. Prepare to suffer, Red Sox fans

Not if Schilling tosses a shutout to clinch the series

Unfortunately, I think Yanks in 6....but I really really really hope I'm wrong

TotalEnd98 · 10-09-2004, 11:14 PM

Yankees in 6 or 7.

keenejee · 10-10-2004, 02:18 AM

I really think Boston will win this on in no more than 6. My gut tells me 5.

Don't put me in that same pool of fans who kept thinking year after year who thought they would, b/c half the time I knew they wouldn't.

This year, the Yanks simply don't have the pitching for a 7 game series. You can mention their hitting, but IMO Boston will hit right along with them. It's the playoffs, it's boston vs NY, I WANT A FIGHT!!!

twins15 · 10-10-2004, 02:59 AM

Sawx in 6.

Melo · 10-10-2004, 08:48 AM

Sox in 7

atarizx3 · 10-10-2004, 09:07 AM

why not, I'll throw this out there, just to be the first (and only):

Red Sox in 4

Luis_Rivera · 10-10-2004, 09:41 AM

No bias here: This is the first time I've ever expected them to beat the Yankees. Why? Pitching.

The Yankees this year are built like the Sox have historically been built. Hitting first (and look how that's worked out for us). The Yankees' 4.69 ERA is the second highest in franchise history. That's pretty alarming. On the road their team ERA is a disgusting 5.30. Put that up against one of the greatest offenses of all time and you have a bad situation for the Yanks.

The Yanks are no joke, but the Sox are far more balanced.

Sox in 6
