I regard all the other teams in this year's postseason to be boring.

I hope that Boston will spare us all of the boredom of another Yankee contaminated World Series.

3. have they gone back to playing baseball in the A.L., or do

As long as Schilling remains Schilling... and if Pedro can start looking more like PEDRO... I think we're in good shape. Can't wait for another Sox/Yanks Game 7! (Although the Angels and Twins are no slackers either... I grew up in CT and have been a Sox fan since I was born, so... GO SOX!!!)

My name is Ryan, and I approve the preceding message.

7. I Think This Is The Red Sox's Year
I have had that feeling for a few weeks now.

I am speaking as another disappointed A's fan.

9. Sorry, but I've got to speak up for my boys -- the Halos.
I've finally gotten up off my duff and into the ballpark this year to take in some games, and the Angels have been a blast to watch. Saw 'em beat the Mariners, Tigers, Rangers, Athletics. The one loss I witnessed was to the Chisox.

The Angels are certainly not boring in person -- especially with a closing bullpen that consists of Frankie Rodriguez and Troy Percival (who, after 10 seasons, sadly becomes a free agent at the end of the year).

Owner Artie Moreno has fielded a winner, and it looks like he intends to keep it that way -- many good players up from Triple-A: DaVanon, MacPherson, Figgins, Riggs, etc.

But good luck to all teams in the playoffs, and may the best one emerge victorious -- :toast:
