EITHER the Angels or the Spankmees are a VERY formidable opponent for different reasons.

 

The Angels, IMO, are a LOT more formidable. We will have a battle on our hands with the Angels. The only edge I see is our rotation being set, versus theirs being used to get here.

E. S. P. N. Sucks. Penis. :gosox3: :headbang

I still can't think that some of you are that dumb; why do you care what ESPN/FOX/Media thinks?

 

I still say that if the Angels win tonight Fox/ESPN run 2 hour programs during the ALCS on how to fix the Yankess and Red Sox.

:sleep

Which leads me to this....what did Bob Ryan or Michael Holly have to say about the Red Sox getting swept?

Yeah, the #2 and 3 TV markets aren't big enough.

Tony Konrheiser. I don't care if it goes Extra innings. The Yankee fans and the media have already built in an excuse for them so any victory will be lesser in their eyes due to the air travel situation. We are as confident of a team as you will find so I really don't care who we face.

Yeah. Break the record that was set yesterday. That would be awesome. The winner would almost have to use up their whole lineup, although the other game was in the NL, so this game probably wouldn't use as many pinch hitters, and wouldn't go to the bullpen as much.

Holly has or had braces and Bob Ryan was suspended for saying he wanted to smack Jason Kidd's wife.

Holy s***! :bang

ya, switch it to hsn, chicago and LA wouldnt be a big enough media market for people :puke

Then let ESPN run a "computer series" between the Yankees and Red Sox like USA Today did two years ago for the Red Sox and Cubs. They could hype it as the Rubber Match That Should Have Been! and Chris Berman could do the play-by-play along with Tony Reali. I could see the commercial:

 

"And on the seventh day, God rested."

 

"And on the eighth day, God created the Yankees and the Red Sox."

 

"And God said, go forth. Be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth with Mickey, Joe, Ted, Carl, Manny, Derek, Pedro, Whitey, Yogi and Babe. And Thou shalt play in the American League Championship Series every year."

 

"Then came the serpent into the garden of Fenway...."

 

[picture of Ozzie Guillen celebrating]

 

cue: Chris Berman's "Graff Error" voice: "Ohhhhhh, NOOOOOO!"

 

The voiceover can finish with "Yankees. Red Sox. The ALCS that was ordained."

Who the hell is Richard Justice to judge whether or not someone will watch a Yankee-less series? The Houston Astros, of all possible World Series contenders, offer a national viewing audience NOTHING outside of Clemens. Most casual baseball fans couldn't name two people on that team. And while I realize our club similiarily doesn't feature well known athletes, our championship drought is more appealing than anything the Astros could offer.

 

Just wait--if there's a possible White Sox/Astros World Series we'll hear the SAME whining again about the lack of an appealing storyline.

This is just typical East coast bias.
