Yeah, I skimmed through the question at 1st and thought the same thing. But then I remembered that in the "who wil win poll" as of last night, 52% picked Sox. I had to double check because I was shocked people lost the faith that quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Did anyone hear Dotel on the Score with Boers and Goff a few hours ago? He was hilarious. He starts off with "Are you guys excited for the game tonite? I am!" and somewhere in the interview he says "We will do what it takes to win, if we have to cheat to win, then we will cheat to win" LOL It was a really funny interview, he sounds like a funny guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batron Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 (edited) QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 04:25 PM) Welcome Aboard!!!!! Are you a Utah Jazz fan? If so you can help me stick up for them in the winter and spring, haha. Big Jazz fan, and since they haven't won a championship the next best thing was the Sox WS win. My wife even got up for that season, she watched every postseason game with me. I'm predicting a win tonight, look to see the offense firing on all cylinders for the first time in what seems like months. It's hard to keep up with the games living in Salt Lake City, but between Yahoo, ESPN and the occaisional TV link I find online it's all good. I get to watch this one tonight so I am pumped. Really excited to see the Twins hard work go down the drain for the season. Edited September 30, 2008 by Utah Sox Fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to be honest I'm at a new level of nervousness. At no point in the world series run did we have a win or go home type of situation. This is the most nervous I have ever been before any sporting event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
