Holy cow, how about those precedent-setting Red Sox? I may be taking my life in my hands here, but I for one am thrilled to see the Yankees getting spanked like this.

I was out at a bar in the Village Monday night during Game 5. The game was on TVs all over the place, of course, and I didn't dare voice my real opinion. When I left, it was the bottom of the 11th. By the time I got home, it was the top of the 14th and the game was still going. I was delighted to get to see the end of that one. And since we turned in early last night, I was even more delighted to hear this morning that the Sox had one again. Tied series! Who would have guessed it three games ago? Not the Bronx Bombers, that's for sure.
