Most, not all but most yankee fans are fair-weather fans.
Unfortunately many Yankee fans are fair-wheather fans. The type of fan that'll got out and by a hat because it's cool, a RED/YELLOW/GREEN Yankee shirt??? Then they're arrogant when "their team" is winning. But, try to talk to them about what's going on with the team and they have no clue. Really erks me, and gives us true Yankee fans a bad rap. As for A-rod - I could do without him. His [postseason numbers are terrible... What good is a player that can't perform in the postseason?? I miss Brosius...
BJOE - You're right, Jeter BLEW... Very uncharactoristic of him though. But 3 DP's and umteen stranded... Man, very frustrating postseason for us. I love Torre and would hate to see him go anywhere. Other than him though, there are a lot of changes we need to make.
CC and Carmona are real tough... It should make for a great series. I'd like to see the winner face the Rockies in the series.

I wonder if it would be cool to wager coral frags on the winner.... It's probably against some rule though...

I would have to pick Cleveland, no choice in the matter there. As far as the NL, I don't really know, maybe the Diamond Backs...

Ortiz and Manny are just in the ZONE!!! And Beckett is just dominant and Schill looked great in his last outing. The only guys that scares me on the Indians is Carmona. There is just something about him that makes me feel like the Sox wont beat him (he did hold them to only 1 or 2 hits earlier in the season). But other than that I think the Sox will win this series because they are playing great right now.

Kevin34,
I don't know if you remember this but last year Carmona was in the bullpen and when he came to boston they pitched him in relief and the Red Sox destroyed him.

Of course I remember that. I was actually at the game when Ortiz hit the walkoff against him and it was just INCREDIBLE!!! I mean just when you think he cant possibly do it again he does! lol But Carmona is like a new pitcher this year and completely shut the sox down earlier this year.
