This ******* team. Best baseball team I've ever seen, they just dominated wire to wire.

That Yankees suck chant was pretty damn lame though. The Sox just won the WS, who the hell cares about the Yankees.

I know this is too soon and all but Boston vs. Cali is a thing this year.

Next up: Pats/Rams Super Bowl. Brady comes full circle from 2001. Unless Drew Brees crashes the party?

Celtics/Warriors isn't "LA" but close enough. Lakers........ :crazy:

I’ve never seen a staff and pen do a 180 in the playoffs like these guys did. It is unheard of. What a showing!

I'm not from Boston and we will differ on the other sports, but I latched onto the Red Sox when I was a kid without Indy having a baseball team.

Tonight makes staying up until 4 am for that never ending game when I had to work at 7 am all worth it. I feel good for Price. I was against the signing because of his playoff struggles. Glad to see him prove me wrong. #DamageDone

Also, the only thing that sucks about being a fan of a team outside of your city is this. The past world series I wasn't in the financial position I'm in now. If the Pacers were in the Finals I could go. Being a team in Boston I can't get away from work without planning ahead. Can't plan ahead not knowing if they'll be in it.

I guess I'll do the 2nd best thing and get to the opener next year for my yearly trip to Fenway, but I am salty I couldn't get to a WS game. Sucks.

We'll probably see more activity, when the other sports start up again.

This Thread sure was/is a good idea.
As the Red Sox win the World Series!!!

Sox were always dominant this year. You were just trying too hard to find a weakness.

Late season bullpen woes when their pitchers were banged up is no thing.

Well Kimbrel didn’t change his stripes, speaks to Sale tonight. But Brazier, Barnes and Kelly? There is a reason they weren’t well regarded. Massive credit to them and how they performed. Massive.

3rd most wins all-time including playoffs. ELO Rankings have them tied for 3rd all-time. Just whaled on two 100-win teams in the playoffs, and both of last year's series teams.

Well they did clean house against the Orioles, but to their credit they should have, and did. I watched near every game. The pen was shaky at best to me. It wasn’t this that’s for sure and I’m glad they perfomed incredibly.
