I’m wiped out.  When my head finally hits the pillow, I’ll fall into a deep, happy sleep.

This team played their hearts out these last three games.  It’s good to see them ALL step up and play like the fans knew they could.  

I love that Daisuke was so effective tonight.  And Okajima, Pedroia, Ellsbury….hell the rookies really came through, didn’t they?

A couple of Cleveland fans emailed me earlier in the week to let me know they bought ALCS Champions t-shirts.  I wonder what they’ll do with those shirts now?

Cleveland is a good team and they certainly gave the Sox a run for their money.  Don’t let the score fool you if you didn’t see the game.  It was 7 straight innings of nail-biting followed by two innings of pure, unadulterated joy.

I’m still stunned.  As much as I’ve hoped and believed they could… I don’t know that I actually believed they WOULD be in the World Series this year.

Jason Varitek, Tim Wakefield, Mike Timlin, Manny Ramirez, David Ortiz, Curt Schilling, Doug Mirabelli and Kevin Youkilis.  These guys already have World Series ring from 2004 and they want another one with the Sox.

They claim their 12th pennant and on Wednesday they start the quest to gain their 7th World Series win.

Bring on the Rockies.  Wednesday can’t come soon enough!
