Hmm... No Pedro, Cabrera, D-Lowe, Schilling (except for 3 quality starts) and Foulke (6+ ERA). And 95 wins. Choking? Are you serious?

Almost 10 games in first place at the start of August, didn't win the division.

If they choked any harder they'd barf.

The difference is... they are in the playoffs even WITH choking.

What I want to know is, what is the Yanks' excuse for not locking this up weeks ago?

Oh, and while some people know how many championships the Yanks have won... EVERYONE knows how many playoff games they lost in a row last year...

Let's hope history repeats itself!

The Yanks were terrible until the last 3 weeks of the season...it's a miracle they did win the division! So, you feel the Yanks won the division instead of the Sox tossing it? Nice try.

They did the Sox a favor by winning the division too, now your boys can go beat up on the White Sox instead of struggling against the Angels. You're welcome!

And we all know how many championships the Sox have won in the past 87 years...1.

My only hope is that the ALCS is Yanks/Sox. If not, my interest in the sport is over for the year.

Still amazes me it's the "World" Series. Since when was Toronto representative of the whole world? And while we're on the subjects, how do the Patriots get to be World Champions? Yet, the US soccer teams are ranked what, 8th in the world (for real), and no one notices.

Well... it used to be both Toronto AND Montreal....


RE Pats: Because the U.S. is the only country in the world that plays this.
