Who do you want in the ALDS?

I voted MFY, and am still not sure if the 3 years lower life expectancy and the hassle of cleaning all that shit out of my pants was worth it.

Who am I kidding? So very worth it!!!

It's fantastic.

The Boston Red Sox have won four straight playoff games in Yankee Stadium, twice eliminating the Yankees from the playoffs, winning those games by a combined score of 34-9.

If we can make it 4 more years, there will be legal adults who have never seen the Yankees beat the Red Sox in the playoffs. That score differential is great.

The only way to flip the script is to do it ourselves. Now they know and can't pass it off as a one time event.
