October 10, 200817 yr For those of you that weren't at the game (like me), check it out. I figured it deserved it's own thread since there isn't a catch all anymore. Great stuff. Edited October 10, 200817 yr by whitesoxfan101
October 10, 200817 yr Author QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Oct 10, 2008 -> 12:20 AM) In retrospect, because I was not at Game 2 of the World Series, the tie breaker game was the best Sox game I have ever been to. Still is 2nd to Illinois-Arizona all time, but I still can't get over the energy the Cell had for this game. Yeah I was at Illinois-Arizona, and that one is pretty much untouchable in terms of energy and noise, outside of Sox playoff games and sadly I've never been to any of those.
October 10, 200817 yr Wow thanks. That video is f***ing sweet. That game ties Mark's no-hitter as the two best Sox games I've ever been to. That tiebreaker had so much energy, excitement, glory. Not to mention all the tension and nerves building up to it. That video pretty much sums it up.
October 10, 200817 yr QUOTE (klaus kinski @ Oct 10, 2008 -> 09:17 AM) Choked me up-and made me damn proud Incredible, just a complete summation of why this year was so special. I too was at Game 2 0f the World Series, and as ludicrous as this sounds, but the experience of watching the one game playoff VS Minnesota (on by birthday, no less) on TV left me nearly as energized as actually being at the ball park. On a different note, I enjoy how BA and D-Wheezy gets their own head-turn, and the Missile and Swish get to share one. Edited October 10, 200817 yr by Thunderbolt
October 10, 200817 yr We've come a long way as a franchise in the last 5 years or so. Edited October 10, 200817 yr by rangercal

October 11, 200817 yr really nice how the put Griffey and Thome together. The trade wasnt anything great but we got to see a special player roaming our outfield even if he's on the downside of his career. That doesnt happen very often.

Griffey's contributions to the Sox were negligble, at best. We once had Steve Carlton on the staff, but that also turned out to be quite forgetable. BFD.
