But then again... I am a Red Wings fan so I shouldn't talk...
I was amazed the Yanks didn't win last year... it's usually easy to win a pennant
You know...if you have a skewed mindset...
Come on...putting all your hopes on a man called El Duque? Basically means the sh*t in spanish...
Yes, the D-Backs taking game 7, on Rivera, no less, was indeed good stuff. Euphoria. Schilling summed it up when talking about the Yankee legend:

"Aura and Mystique are dancers at a nightclub."
The Series last year was closer. Except for the two early blow-outs, those were some of the most dramatic game sin Series history. Those late-inning hme runs were a treat to watch. Even the Diamonbacks winning in the 9th of game seven, good stuff.
I made the same mistake, obviously.

I can't believe the Tribe lost that series. I was disgusted. Could it have been ANY closer, though?

'97 always sticks in my head because it was the only year in the past six that the Yankees weren't in the World Series. Stupid Indians couldn't even beat the Florida Marlins!

'98 it was.
Actually, it was 114 for the '98 Yanks, I believe. And yes, 116 for the M's of last year.
Just looked it up: it was 114 for the '97 Yanks, 116 for the 2001 Mariners.

My point is still the same.
