I'm so excited I can't leave yet ! And THANKS to Remy over on NESN for calling that travesty about the A-Rod/Borus jive during the game for what is was...

And I was thinking that the Yankees would announce their next manager during the 9th inning. But Boras is even more classless! More classless than the Steinbrenners: that's quite an achievement.

Another World Series sweep -- nothing can detract from that. Kudos to Tito, Theo and the whole front office, who did their jobs well, and didn't make themselves the story.

Kudos to Larry Lucchino too. After the gorilla suit fiasco and eventual Theo rehire, he stayed out of the way and kept building the franchise.

And because those kids incorporated into the Sox roster (Ellsbury, Pedroia, Papelbon) have paid dividends, they deserve some mention.

Props to Andrew.
Congrats to Jose and G38.
Thanks to the geeks admirable "server"ice.

Remember Red Sox Nation....

THIS IS OUUUURRRRRRRR COUUNNNTTTTRRRYYYYYYY!

FIRE CROTCH BOBBY KIELTY!!!

[Age of Aquarius]

Agreed. I saw both Games 3 and 4, but was out in a place where I couldn't gamethread in both cases...but was with you all in spirit. No "you only win one every 86 years" garbage anymore, curse absolutely annihilated, and the Yankees in disarray...for a Red Sox fan, it doesn't get much better than this.

Congratulations to everyone...and farewell to negativity. This is the continuing of the era of the Age...well, see my nickname for the rest.

Thanks for a great season.

Is that guy around that stopped posting for this winning streak??

I feel your pain.

Let's go man, get a picture that doesn't have a Yankees logo on it! Just kidding, I can see not noticing that detail.

[Effa]

Congrats to everyone! SoSH has been an awesome outlet and you guys have been great. We all get a little fired up and negative at times (Me) but its all in good fun! Great season, Fellas!

Not all.

Some.

[Greenwell982]

Watah!

the Sox did it.

I love this team.

Dude. .We're the "Them" now. Only 7 game winning streak of the season.

G'night fellas...

See you next year

Fair enough! Who cares? The Sox won the World Series and I'm wasted.

Thanks everyone. I've loved being a fan of this laundry through bad and good times. Tonight makes all that shit worth it. Night after night, following on tv, the computer on my xm in the garage. This is worth it. This is why we are fans. It will never get old. I will never take it for granted.

Everything anyone out there says right now is just pure unfiltered magic.

Lowell for 2-3 years. Curt for 1 year.

Do it all over again next year.

We're grateful for your sacrifice, Effa! Just remember, you can't post during opening day 2008 either.

But everything in between is wide open!

[WalletTrack]

Any parade news yet?

That's Rolling Rally to you friend ....See you at the corner of Tremont and Boylston.

[gtg807y]

I love Red Sox.

I'm probably not going to drink an entire bottle of champagne when the Patriots win the Super Bowl in 3 months, but then again I might.

[marsrover21]

Meh. Hearing A-Rod has opted out of his Yankee contract during the game where the Sox win the WS is like finding a dollar down the back of the sofa. On which you're doing Beyonce at the time. It doesn't exactly make you sad, but it sure as hell isn't what you're gonna remember about the evening.

Boras is one smart SOB.

I like this one:

[Dewey's 24]

I have not posted much this year, and not at all in the playoffs. Almost posted in this thread before the game, but didn't due to I am unoriginal and unfunny. Please put me out of my misery reasons.

Congrats to the 2007 World Series Champions. It has been a fun ride and for once, I am glad there is no baseball tomorrow.

[patinorange]

Lugo, pretty funny with Rosenthal.

"I am the shortstop champ" "What tough season"

[Effa]

Is that guy around that stopped posting for this winning streak??

I feel your pain.

It's me...(and I'm not a guy )

It was worth it, and I always got to post (like I am now) a million times in the post-game part of the thread.

I always thought of you guys trudging through the night to the library to catch the game on a laptop, then trudging home again. VERY poetic.

We lurkers have certainy made sacrifices for this team.

GO SOX!!!!!!

"DiceK. How you feel?"

"Happy?"

G38 just gave a shout out to SOSH on NESN.

Glorious.

[WalletTrack]

I just did. It felt good.

We won. Again. I'm pleased, but I'm not too pleased. I'm not overly pleased. I'm just a normal, well-adjusted level of pleased proportionate to the event.

I'm really liking this whole post-2004, not-being-in-a-constant-state-of-dramatic-angst, just-like-any-other-fanbase-except-louder-and-more-knowledgeable thing. It feels good to be a Red Sox fan without being a public oddity.

I have to agree with this. Once we got past Cleveland, i felt the hard part of the journey was over. Not complacent, but in a practical sense i felt we had the better team, with the best manager and the right approach.

We're the team to hate now. Which is nice.

2004 was the consumation of a long love affair ....but this..2007. This is better. It's confirmation we badass.
Classy of G38 to mention Bagdadjamie and SoSH.
Schill's a good man.

[Savin Hillbilly]

Hey everybody, thank you for being such great company through this magical mystery tour of a season. Lurkers of the world unite!

See you around the ol' hot stove....

[NomarRS05]

hell yeah!

It's 5:14 am. I should be sleeping now. Instead I'm sitting up listening to the celebration on WRKO.

[Jim Ed Rice in HOF]

Anyone see Varitek put that ball in his pocket?

[yazisgod]

What did he say?

He gave a shout out to Baghdad Jamie (member who is serving in Iraq, and who was serving in Iraq in 2004) and to SOSH.

Exactly. 04 was the Sox getting over the hump. This year is the start of the dynasty.

I look forward to watching post-game videos at work tomorrow. Sorry, taxpayers of the great state of Georgia!

its in his glove

[Royal Reader]

Well, it's five am here, and I think I'd better actually get some sleep.

God Bless every one of you wonderful people, and GOD BLESS THE BOSTON RED SOX.

[Andrew]

Andrew has to be around to start the opening game thread.

I wouldn't be anywhere else. I promised you all! Don't doubt me!


I hope Schilling is starting the main board thread!

[ypioca]

That photographer is a goddamn wizard.

[DeronJohnson'sTriple]

Thanks SOSH and especially my fellow lurkers, for being my lifeline in another spectacular season. I really appreciate that this place exists.

[ypioca]

I hope Schilling is starting the main board thread!

And the game.
