I'd like to think so, but I lost all hope after the 2003 playoffs. I'm not even as into baseball as I used to be, but that totally shattered my heart.

I will never root for the Sox! Too many bad memories of Sox fans gloating everytime the Cubs choked...

I think it's kinda hard for a lot of people living outside of Chicago to understand that most Cubs fans can't stand the Sox, and vice versa. Just the way it's always been. I don't know if other cities with 2 teams are like that? Not sure if Mets fans hate the Yankess and vice versa?

My own family is split down the middle. In fact, I'm surprised I haven't gotten a call from my dad yet, asking what the Cubs did yesterday! My husband has already gotten about 7 such calls from friends who are Sox fans.

Heh heh! My mom is in her mid-60's, and has been waiting her whole life. She's convinced of the same thing!

I will definitely be praying for a National league win in the World Series! The sadist in me is also hoping the Sox will be 5 outs from winning the series, when a fan interferes with a ball... or a ball goes through the first baseman's legs, blowing an easy out... or a black cat is thrown on the field and they fall apart... or some other Cub-like "catastrophe", causing them to lose their cool and blow the series!

Yeah, I was hoping the Angels would put up a bit more of a fight than that.

Exclamation Omg!!!

Looks like Busch Stadium gets a reprieve for now.

I'm still in shock.

Please, let him win NL MVP. We'd be nowhere without him.

Definitely. He's the only Cardinal that has been hitting this series. Hopefully, the momentum has shifted with that monster HR.

Derrick Lee

It will be between Pujols and D.Lee for the NL MVP and I am rooting for the Cubs own D.Lee

Lee had a great year, definitely. I think it will be between Pujols/Andruw Jones, honestly.

Why do you feel terrible for the Astros? They are still leading the series.
