Wow, this couldn't possibly be worst for me- My severe allergies kicked in right before the game, my nose can't seem to function, my eyes are still itchy. As a result of my defunct olfactory system, my potato chips and root beer are tasteless.
Also, I've come to realize when I like both teams playing in the WS, it becomes really boring. I don;t have a team to cheer for (either that, or I'm cheering for both), Boston looks like it'll take it even if I stopped watching right now at the 5th.... wow...I never realized that team loyalty was so important in fueling my enthusiasm...
to top off my misery my tongue has now lost feeling... yay. Hope everyone enjoys the game more than I do....

Awwww. Boo allergies! Nothing to enjoy about this game on this end, I'll tell you that much. It's actually downright painful.
Fabulous game, I went to bad after the 5th it was so long, unheard of for me but it was 11:00.
Can't get all excited after 1 game though.
For all you JD Drew "fans" I read an online email to Bill Simmons from ESPN that said "I was just deciding to change my nickname for Drew from Nancy to Joanne since it's closer to his real name, now I'll just call him JD". Very funny article all kinds of emails after he hit the "14,000,000 grandslam." Another one said "Drew is up looking for the perfect double play to ground into."
I think it will be a great series regardless of who wins. As a lifelong fan of the SOX, I will of course root for them, but know they will have to take each game at a time and I think they will.
..................
Maybe they wanted to make the Red Sox feel overly confident.... yeah, that's it!
So true DIANE...and they are good at it too! I know....the way they snuck up on my DODGERS7 freakin' times, the last two weeks of the regular season, was PREEE~TEEE CLEVER
Way to go....use up all your runs in the first game....stupid...stupid....stupid.
I'm excited for the rest of this series- I think the Rox are in the position to not let one game throw a series and can take a loss for what it is and move on. They've been playing the last 20+ games like that and it has worked out pretty well. I just hope it doesn't get that ugly again, YIKES!

Edit: I feel SO bad for Todd Helton.
Oh man, I totally agree with you. I remember him standing on 2nd base thinking there was SOME possibility, and I just said to myself "Gosh, Helton, you're putting some much pressure on yourself"... My allergies are barely over, and I missed the latter half... hopefully it will be better tonight

Oh thank you Gary. I was SO angry last night because I just didn't feel like I could watch it. Either it was my enthusiasm or my allergies. My eyes and nose just DIDN'T want me to watch the game!??

I too will be happy no matter who wins the series, but I LIKE SEVERE excitement... I like it when teams REALLY make it a competition, like, tying close to the last inning, or tie number of games until the 7th...

I hope they could rebound and play the sox like they did in the regular season (20-5!) ortherwise the game gets boring if the Sox take it in 4 or 5 games. I hope for at least 6 games...
As another lifelong Red Sox fan (I may live in Alaska, but I grew up just outside of Boston), I'm here to tell you that with the Sox you never count on the win until the game/series is over! They've come soooo close so many times. I was watching the final 2004 game and still didn't believe they'd done it.
