10/30 World Series game 6 vs St Louis

[BornToRun]

Is anybody else still having trouble believing that we really just won the f***ing World Series?

Oh yes, despite the fact that half of my school was decked out in Sox gear today.

It is kind of surreal. I thought at some point we were going to be rudely awakened from our dream but it didn't happen.

 

It almost feels like there must be one more series still to play.

No superstars on this team except for Ortiz and Pedroia. Only Sox to make the all-star team this year were an injured Buccholz, Ortiz, and a benched Pedroia. Koji did not make the team in that "vote for the final man" thing because right before the all-star game he had his like only bad save attempt of the year (although we would have won the game of Brandon Snider didn't make that error throw to second).

Who do they have in the next round? The 86 Mets?

RED SOX are awesome!

 

Some Cards fans are the epitome of embarrassing and disgusting.

 

Don't refer to yourself in the 3rd person (Hi Fred).

 

McCarver sucks but is finally RETIRED!!!

Psyched a700 got to be at the game. How awesome is that????

Yes.

 

Also regarding our conversation about Dempster last night, he apparently celebrated by throwing batting practice to anyone left in the stadium who wanted to participate, up until 3AM.. how awesome is that??

[Northern Star]

Porn mojo came in clutch. One we talked about porn, we didn't lose again. Bree Olson was just as important to this team as Ben Cherrington

 

wait, there was porn talk and I missed it? f***.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Still a deity?

Can't change it.

I still don't believe that this season unfolded the way it did and that I was there to see it boggles my mind. It's like a big dream to me. I feel like I hit the lottery getting to go to the game. It came completely out of the blue for me. Three World Championships in ten years. Prior to 2004, I would have told you that I would have been happy with 1. The fact that this championship was so unexpected made it as remarkable as the 2004 Championship.

Couldn't possibly be happier for you. You deserved it.

Thanks Pal!!!

I think that I am the luckiest guy ever. I am still pinching myself. My Blackberry service sucked at Fenway and the battery went dead after my one and only gamethread post.

 

I was visiting my brother in Florida during the ALCS. I was there for the ALCS clincher. The next day I got a text from a good friend asking me if I wanted to go to game 6 of the World Series. I thought he was joking. He has a business associate in Boston that offered him tickets to game 1 or 2, but my friend couldn't make those games. With that, the guy told him that he could have game 6 tickets if it went that far. We had Pavilion seats. It was an unbelievable night capping an unbelievable season. When we won game 4, I was so psyched because there would be a game 6. When we won game 5, I was going out of my mind thinking that I w=could see them win the championship. I wasn't counting my chickens about getting the tickets especially when the prices skyrocketed. I thougt a bigger customer might ask for the tickets or that something else would go wrong. It didn't set in for me until we picked up the tix at a bar in Dorchester at 4pm. The city was in lock down so I drove to my daughter's place in Somerville, parked there and took the T to the game.

 

This was the first season since 1976 that I didn't get to Fenway for a regular season game due various work and personal reasons. Last night was my first and only game this season other than Spring training. Boy did I get lucky!!

 

After we scored the 3 runs on the Victorino hit and Bogaerts lined out to end the inning, I told my friend that I thught Wacha was going to be toast the next inning. I told him that the litmus test would be if Drew got a hit against him, and then bomb-a-rooski!!! Lol!!!

 

My son is almost as lucky as me. Yesterday was his birthday. In 2004 we were at the parade on his birthday. He has a great birthday!!

 

Great season!! Great night!! Soak it all in!! Enjoy it. I am still pinching myself.

 

BTW, every law enforcement officer in New England must have have been around Fenway and Back Bay. Thousands of cops in riot gear all over.

 

Absolutely up tight and out of sight my friend that you could be there for the clincher. Tickets for standing room only were going for $900.00 and I can imagine what a good seat from E-Bay or some other shyster broker went for. I saw the ALCS clincher and the first two WS games and thought I might take a flier on a return trip, but while I may have some money saved from my years of working I'm not a Daddy Warbucks by any means. At any rate good for you. Remember that conversation we had just before the season when we said if all the teams in the AL East beat up on each other we could actually luck out and steal a division title? Well we might not have believed we could but what our team did is one for the ages.

Every yankee fan that I know personally (3 of 4 born and bred) has contacted me to check in and given props. Add Jete, Jacko and Yankees228 and there is a bunch of good sports.

 

Brennan, here's one for you and the rest of my friends here on the board. I was thrilled when the Cardinals eliminated the Dodgers and ended their season and leaving complainer Gonzales, moaner Crawford and ******* Beckett crying in their brewskies. My intention was to rub it in to every Dodger fan I ran into out here when I got back-----but I did no such thing. Know why? Because to a man...or woman, they were rooting for us to beat the Cardinals. I didn't meet one LA fan who didn't want to see the Cards dealt a body blow. It was hard to curb my instincts but I did. Truth be told, though, I think they were rooting more for St Louis to lose than us win. At least that's what I decided to tell myself.

 

Well as Thomas Hart Benton once said......if my fire warms them they're welcome to sit by it.

I'm getting a shirt and banner to put right next to my 2004 and 2007 banners.

 

I just tore out all the pictures of Fenway Park and its history from 1912 to 2012, and started putting up games of the World Series and ALCS, and will finish that part of it tomorrow. I will also be putting up pictures of the starting lineup and key subs and pitchers I clipped out of the 2013 yearbook. I have a question, though. I know just about every team that's won the WS in each year but not 1913. Anyone know who won that year? Was it the Athletics?

I got the message this year VA. I will never doubt the Red Sox again. I'm still thinking I'll wake up and find out this is all a dream. But it's real, right?

[seabeachfred]

Now please my friends promise me this. That most of you won't disappear until next Spring Training. Let's keep in touch on this board through the off and hot stove league season. I have a feeling a lot of stuff with the various and sundry teams is going to go down----a lot of activity.

[Youk Of The Nation]

When I woke up this morning to go to work, I had to check the newspaper, and then check four other newspapers at 7-11 just to make sure the Sox actually won the World Motherf***ing Series, as well as the regular World Series. Yep, they did. Holy s***, it wasn't an awesome, awesome dream.

[Navafan29]

I just had a dream. Halloween was winding down and David Ortiz came to my house for some reason. He helped me hand out halloween candy to the last few kids to arrive. He's a pretty cool guy.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Yeah the A's won in 1913 Fred

[Youk Of The Nation]

Yeah the A's won in 1913 Fred

 

Fred was too busy with college to watch that year!
