love the title!

crazy game today! glad that we came out on top!

missy7280 · 04-25-2009, 10:01 PM

haha thanks

I hope I didn't jinx it for them now.

I didn't really see much of the game. I saw it early on when the Yankees were up by a ton. I never expected the end score.

Good for the Sox though.

Just one more! haha

thanks for the new thread!

I have faith in Masterson. I think he will do well tonight.

WHAT THE?!

OMG JACOBY. MARRY ME!

that was AMAZING.

Erin · 04-26-2009, 07:17 PM

Posada never saw that coming! I guess Jacoby isn't content with being a great base stealer, he needs to up the anty by stealing home. Wow.

What a play. Awesome.

Thanks for the new thread!

Jacoby Ellsbury, you da the man. Just wow. He looked so happy.. like it was Christmas for him. ESPN commenators are in love with him; it seemed like after that play. Just wow.

And how sweet it was to sweep the Yanks. Something we never seem to do anymore. Everyone was just amazing this weekend.

And what about Michael Bowden and Hunter Jones?

**mint chip** · 04-27-2009, 08:27 AM

W10; what a winning streak! i love it!

Jacoby was all ready the man; with his crazy speed; he leads off in the batting order; and his defense is off the walls! he is just soo amazing; and damn cute as well (lol).. so after that play; whoa; and the whole curtain call; yeah sox fans will be in love with him even more!

ahahah Yankees were humiliated this weekend! ahah and i love it

missy7280 · 04-27-2009, 12:26 PM

You're welcome to you both for the thread.

So now it's 10 wins in a row, but at least I know my title did not jinx them!

OTH_Leyton_4eva · 04-27-2009, 01:06 PM

i loved him explaining the thing after it happened! he was right to do a straight steal at home with two outs you need courage and you need to make it! and he did! i dislike how people are putting the blame on posada/pettite on some espn shows today but come on give jacoby most of the credit. yea stealing home doesn't happen all that often, but it does happen and with his speed it was bound to happen at some point!

i just LOVE how this weekend we won games all different ways! pitching/belting HR's/manufacturing runs! 10 wins in a row! let's make it 11 tonight!

I can't stand when reporters only talk about what one side does wrong instead of praising the other side's ability.

Let's focus on the positive please! He definitely deserves a lot of credit for what he did, his speed and everything.

I don't care whose fault it is...as long as we benefit!

No...I agree that they try to downplay one team's strength...to make it seem like they wouldn't have been able to play well..unless the other team hadn't screwed up.

Yeah that's exactly what I was trying to say, except you worded it better.

Besides, I know the national announcers can be biased, and it gets on my nerves.
