Couldnt agree more Mike. That 5 game sweep killed the Sox. It may have been different if it was 4 of 5 but a sweep just took the wind out of any sails they may have had.

This is just not true.They still had life when they came to Anaheim for 3.They fought us like wild animals in those 3 games,and took 2 of them.They gave up on Monday afternoon(before playing Oakland for 3 games.)That is when they called the season off.They put Wells,Manny,Ortiz,Pena etc. on a plane back to Boston.Ortiz,Manny,and Pena could of all atleast pinch hit against Oakland that Monday,Tuesday,and Wednesday,but Francona gave it up like a woman on Monday afternoon.There has never been an outright quit so obvious before.(well maybe ..the no mas against Sugar Ray.) Tell me why they didn't try Del Carmen or somebody half decent to pitch for Lester.No,they put that PAWTUCKET TRASH ON THE MOUND,AND HE WALKED ABOUT 5 IN 3 INNINGS.Halos could use a game ,or half a game right now.I will never forgive or forget what those Boston whores did. F THE BOSOX.Suffer all winter.
