eh, i had a lot of practice in dealing with these types of losses after years of bitter and utter disappointments in boston sports history. i dont see the point of hating the giants after they've beaten the pats. you cant blame anyone for having the desire to win. competiveness is just part of the game and giants obviously wanted it more in the superbowl than the pats did. but the loss was definitely one of the top 5 biggest disappontment in boston sports history. the first being the 1986 world series, especially in the game 6 when sox were leading the series, 3-2, and they fell flat after leading by 2 runs with 2 outs at the bottom of the ninth. i was furious and wanted to beat up any mets fans in sight because i thought ray knight, who helped carry the mets to championship in game 7, was a douchebag. BUt then I was only 10 at the time.

With the mets getting Santana, it's beginning to look like 1986 all over again(especially with an even more beastly Boston team to win hte AL. Eerie).

i'm just happy the yankees didnt get him, thats all. i think that was sox's main motivation in aquiring santana so the yankees wouldnt get their hands on the pitcher. the sox signed sean casey from detroit yesterday. we would need him to play first because youkilis have been riddled with injuries as of late and david ortiz is just too damn slow defensively. the sox looks to be a powerhouse once again for 2008 and i'm excited about it.
