Don't do it genny age 21.
You'll be sorry.

I'll be nice and say "no". (and "No" to a higher amount too).

The smart money (that's me) says Boston.

okay. a grand.

$1000 to the tdpri in YOUR name. if the sox go FARTHER in the playoffs...

tele-jack · September 22nd, 2007, 08:40 AM

The Sox have woken up and are stepping on the gas and are going to leave the Hankees in the dust. Let's hope Manny comes out of the kitchen and Gagne continues to pitch the way he did last night.

genny, read what You quoted me saying.
No amounts - higher or lower.
Bet Boston.
This is the last gambling advice You get.

Maybe on an off day in between games!

Red Sox Nation is pleased to announce that the Red Sox are in the post season.
Next is to clinch the division.

beachkos · September 23rd, 2007, 10:10 AM

Congrats to The Sox and The Red Sox Nation -Just one more week of regular season baseball left - Yanks have 8 games left and the Sox have 7 left -going to be tough for the Yanks to win the division but they should certainly make the playoffs as the wild card - Now Francona can start to rest everybody

The Red Sox, Indianas, and the Angles have clinch playoffs. The Yankees need to win 2 games to get into the Wild Card.

Actually, any combination of Yankee wins and Tiger losses adding up to 2 will do it.

shakedancer · September 24th, 2007, 08:27 PM

Should be some great playoff baseball this year!!! Anyone of the teams could win the pennant.

Yeah well Tigers lost and the Yankees also lost. But the Yankees need one more win to get the wild card.

Filthy McNasty · September 25th, 2007, 07:21 PM

Whoohoo!! Manny Ramirez returns to the lineup tonight for the first time in 24 games.

TJNY · September 26th, 2007, 11:37 PM

They will and they have!!! Bring on the Indians!!!!!

kaibu49 · September 26th, 2007, 11:46 PM

I'm really happy for Joe.
And what a difference from wondering where the bench was in May. Must be an incredible experience for all, especially the rookies.

dangerine49 · September 26th, 2007, 11:50 PM

13 years in a row!!!

chet · September 27th, 2007, 12:23 AM

tazzboy · September 27th, 2007, 03:14 AM

Now lets hope A-Rod can improve his playoff record.

beachkos · September 27th, 2007, 08:36 AM

for the 53 non-believers in this poll, this "clinch" is for you !

maybe this should be changed to "will the METS make the playoffs"

shakedancer · September 29th, 2007, 12:10 AM

The Boston Red Sox, American League Eastern Division " Champions. " Go Sox!!!! Beach, a little bit to Eric, and a lot to Chet, this is for you.....

: Oh, congradulations to the " 2nd " place Yankees, you did have a great second half. I hope we meet in the playoffs!!

Filthy McNasty · September 29th, 2007, 12:47 AM

Red Sox clinch the A.L. East, Cubs clinch the N.L. Central, the Phillies continue to play out if their minds while the Brewers collapse is complete and the Mets are on life support. I love all 162 games of it!

chet · September 29th, 2007, 01:00 AM

Joe wasn't concerned with winning the AL East. He rested his starters instead.

They need to make some changes before they can think about advancing into the playoffs. At this point they don't deserve to make it.

tazzboy · September 29th, 2007, 01:15 AM

The Mets just got knock out first place and now the Phillies have a chance to win the AL East division.

beachkos · September 29th, 2007, 07:23 AM

A great regular season for all of MLB and let's hope the playoffs bring us more of the same. The Sox held it together and deserved to win the AL East and I tip my hat to them. The Yanks had a great second half, but it wasn't enough to overcome their horrendous start. The Sox were the better team over the course of the regular season.
BTW, The game winning bunt that The O's Melvin Mora laid down last night was textbook perfect and completely caught the Yankees infield offguard. Videotape of that bunt will be a tutorial used by coaches and managers at all levels for years to come. A great call by The O's and a great comeback by The O's to win the game.

shakedancer · September 29th, 2007, 08:18 AM

Ya right Chet, they ( Yanks) wanted to win the division so bad they could taste it. They would never just sit and be second best to the Sox. Chet, you are so funny!!! Chet, why can't you and Genny have class, like Beach?

You Yank fans may not believe this, but I hope you beat Cleveland and we beat LAA so we can meet again and destroy you like we did in 2004!

shakedancer · September 29th, 2007, 08:31 AM

A tip of my hat to the Cubs, Padres, and Colorado Rockies who won 11 in a row. The Rockies have played great!! may be a little to late.

I hope the BoSUX get knocked off in the first round. Serves you obnoxious BoSUX fans right.

That was payback for you guys calling the Yank fans obnoxious.

teleman65 · September 29th, 2007, 11:50 PM

I was one of the 53. At the time it didn't look that good.
Congrats to the Yankees on making it and to the BoSox for finishing on top of the A.L. East.

Word..................

I was one of the 53 also.
I still think they will eventually collapse under their "You-gotta-win-because-you-are-a-bought-team-with-the-highest-payroll" pressure.
But I've been wrong before............

shakedancer · September 30th, 2007, 09:52 AM

Red Sox clinch AL home field advantage with the best record in all of baseball. They are firing on all cylinders going into playoffs. Ortiz has been on fire for 2 months. The real J.D. Drew has shown up at the right time. Youk is back, Manny is back, Dice-k and Okajima are rested, and things are looking good for Red Sox Nation. Anyone who wants to be a member, go to RedSoxNation.com. Some good perks with membership. Also the vote is on now for the 1st President of the Nation. Hey Chet, want to join?

Oh yeah, it's a good thing the Blow Sox have all home grown talent and are working for minimum wage. Puh-leaze...

And yes, you'll be wrong again.

shakedancer · September 30th, 2007, 12:41 PM

We'll be wrong again? You mean like in 2004?

That's all you got? 2004? I can pull a few memorable NY years out of our history to see and raise your 2004 such as 1978, 1986, 1999, 2000, 2003.

Based on Boston's track record, you're due to win another Series in 2090. Hope you're around to see it.

P.S. The Mets are breaking out the golf clubs tomorrow. Better get those Boston tee times ready too.

I was finished posting on this thread but...There is no team in sports that has not "choked" one time or another and the yankees are no exception. I could roll off a hand full of yankee chokes, so if your past is choke free then you can talk, if it is not.. people in glass houses. I love the selective memory of some yankee fans.By the way you forgot 1949 as well.

shakedancer · September 30th, 2007, 07:52 PM

Wow!!! What is it with NY Baseball teams? The two biggest CHOKES of all time, the 2004 Yankees and the 2007 Mets. Holy Cow!!!!

Edit: Throw in ManGenius ( HaHa!!) and his Crappy Jets!!!
