Looking back to October '04
I was looking back on some of the old posts from the 04 ALCS and I can't tell you how warm and fuzzy it makes me feel as i could slowly feel how the Yank's Pompous smirks  were slowly wiped off their faces as the sox achieved the unachievable.
I just thought I'd get some nostalgia going since it's now the coming up 5th year anniversary of that glorious year.

Re: Looking back to October '04
I still maintain that the creation of Talksox ultimately led to that WS win

Re: Looking back to October '04
I wasn't. The Diamondback one killed us more than the Red Sox one did. Not even close.

Re: Looking back to October '04
I actually agree with him, for the following reasons
1. It was the World Series
2. It was the last hurrah for a lot of guys on that "Yankee Dynasty"
3. They had the lead in the 9th inning of Game 7 of said WS
4. It was the first time Yankee fans saw the chink in the armor and experienced a crushing defeat with Mo on the mound

Re: Looking back to October '04
But the Diamondback weren't their arch-rivals they loved to taunt, and that series wasn't a 3-0 to 4-3 bedshitting.
Its easy for a Yankee fan to say that 2001 was bigger, but I think every sensible person knows the truth.

Re: Looking back to October '04
Some Yank fans still scream 1918 and tell me that Arod has been their best CF since Willie Randolph.
Cunts,most Yank fans from this area are wankers who sucked in sports and needed to make up for their physical shortcomings by being the fans of say the Lakers or the Canadiens or the Yankees.
1 thing we do know for sure.
the Dbax series didnt replace the standard international symbol for choking as the 2004 collapse did.
