To quote from Ted Kennedy, ...the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives, and the dream shall never die Whose your Papi?

I really appreciate your positive attitude. But in the end the team that wins is the one with the most runs. Everything else doesn't matter. Certainly anything is possible. I will feel much better if Pedro wins tonight and they head back to Boston with a split. And certainly even another loss tonight doesn't mean they cant come back and win 4, but the liklihood given all else..... Any other time you might give the benefit of the doubt, but we are talking about the Red Sox here. The weight of Red Sox nation is on Pedro's shoulder. Can he stand 55,000 people chanting "whose your daddy"? Let's face it, Red Sox fans heaped it on Clemens in 99 and he had to be taken out of the game in the 3rd -- I was there. RRROOOOGGGEEEERRRR It was euphoric. It will take a superman effort from Pedro to overcome. I really hope he has it in him, but I must admit, I am no longer worried about the vacation we planned in Orlando, FL over Halloween.

Up til yesterday, player for player, I would have taken the Sox over the Yanks. I wouldn't have considered "the intangibles" (like many of the Yanks players with tons of playoff experience, not to mention come-from-behind playoff experience, a Platinum Manager, the "mystique", etc. etc) But Shilling being done is a huge blow; problably more so mentally than anything. It would take a very competent manager to deal with this sudden blow to the team; and Francona is not that manager. He just doesn't have the goods. It's over. It's time to accept this fact.

Shilling is done. If the Red Sox are going to win the ALCS or the World Series, its going to be without him. Only hope is Lowe can somehow find it in him to get the job done. Not out of the question, but i am afraid: advantage Yankees. Plus, with Francona managing, I have lost the faith. I'm sorry.

Francona stinks. he is a HORRIBLE manager. He will lose the ALCS for the Red Sox. No question. If the Red Sox do lose, will he be fired?
