Can it happen?

The Boston Red Sox just made history by being the first team ever to force game 7 of the ALCS while having been down 3 games.Can this be a sign?Could the curse be broken?Will the empire crumble?

Would love to see the Sox in the World Series against the Astros...where the curse of the Bambino would continue in the form of "Houston in six"

I will hold my comments until another time, as it is very unpopular to be a Yankee fan.

Well, right when Arroyo "dropped" the ball trying to tag Alex, I yelled out "2004's Bill Buckner!". I was sure this was a beginning to the end, until they showed the replay and the Umps CORRECTED the call. A-Rod is a cheating (and later, lying) sack of !@#$ for doing that. I can't believe he tried to say that it was his normal running motion..(removed)!Quoting a comical t-shirt I saw a few days ago..."Jeter sucks A-Rod" Go Sox!!

"I don't know what I was trying to do. I know he was coming and I know that the line is mine. They said I could've run him over, but I went out of my way. Looking back at it, I probably should've just run him over." He admitted to putting his hand up...he had to do something in order to avoid the collision. If you are running, and somebody is running toward you and you know there is going to be a collision, you wouldn't put your hand up?But wait, I forgot, we're talking about the Yankees, so it must be evil.

If the player goes into the runner's path, it would not have been an out.

He clearly said "bull!@#$", than something to the effect of "I was just running" while displaying a running motion..

I'll step up and say I AM A YANKEE FAN!!!!!! it would be great to see the best team go into the World Series one more time! And even if Boston does get into the series they will probably lose anyway. The Curse will not be broken!!!!!!!

I hate...no not strong enough, I despise the Yankees. And it always makes me feel good to see them lose and lose horribly. Like right now!!! Damon, Grand Slam!

not a fan of baseball really other then a mild interest in the home team Blue Jays, but it was nice to see NY go down instead of winning every year... kinda as satisfying as seeing Detriot lose in hockey haha.

They did it!The Boston Red Sox won the world series for the FIRST TIME IN 86 YEARS!!!!!!
