Ok, its been 12 days since the Boston Red Sox won there 2nd title in four years and yes it wasn't even close. They swept them in four. Actually it was almost expected. Some felt at most the Colorado Rockies could pull off at most two wins, but that's it. They didn't, and it played out as I thought. The superior team(best record in baseball) beat out a team that had to struggle to get into the playoffs. Let me tell you it feels just as good as it did in 2004. Different, but the same. Mike Lowell was the MVP for the series and in fairness he was the MVP for the season in terms of the lineup. From baserunning to the clutch hitch, he delievered in the series. Plus having two young players like Jacoby Ellisbury and Dustin Pedroia set the table for the big guys Ortiz, Ramirez, and Lowell it was a delight. Josh Beckett lights out, he's definitely the CY Young winner this year in my opinion, no pitcher wanted it more like him. Plus watching Schilling go deep down and pitch clutch performances leaves me in awe. So does Jon Lester. He survived cancer and he clinched the finale by giving up no runs. Plus having Paplebon as your closer, you know he'll give you his crazy dance, but he is dead serious as a closer and the results proved it. Just ask the Rockies. Anyway much more to get into, but the short of it, it felt great, with a capital G! What added to it was A-Rod not being a Yankee any more he opted out of his contract and the Yankees decided not to renew it. That feels so good words can't describe. But it was also insulting. The announcement of all this came during Game 4 of the World Series, the nerve of him! What he hasn't been to a World Series so he has to steal the glory from us. How dare he! There's talks of A-Rod coming to the Red Sox, forget it. He is totally classless. It will be all moot when we resign Mike Lowell(a guy with class) and it won't be a subject of debate. Somehow it still is. I know Lowell hasn't resigned yet(they've offered him a 3 year deal), so you fear he's leaving and think let's get A-Rod. Forget it. Also 2004, he wanted to challenge our captain Jason Varitek after he got hit and in return Varitek got the better of him. Don't mess with the captain! Besides all this, of course I want Mike Lowell back that's a must! It was great to resign Curt Schilling so he can pitch his last year with us. Schilling= WINNER! We'll the season is over and there isn't much more to say but another championship and the future looks bright! Much more to get into but I'll end on this, no other baseball team is feeling better than us and to the rest of you including the New York Yankees, especially you, we're on top of the world and your in disarray LOL!!
