Not likely the Sox will come back in this one. But I still think Sox will win in seven....BUT if Sox were to come back in this one I would say momentum hit a wall.

What did you think of those comments Ortiz gave ESPN Deportes, about his knee?
Is he in that bad shape (surgery at earliest possible moment), or is that a head fake?

They do...but they’re fun to hang out in and they provide me employment. So suburbia it is!

I’m with you. Although I live in Maryland, I live in as scarcely populated an area as I can....we call the county Pennsyltucky. Well water and septic tanks are heaven.
