Yeah Tim that sweep will be talked about for decades.
LOL! I wouldnt go that far. That 7th game walk off HR by Aaron Boone will be talked about for a while even though they failed in the WS that year to the Marlins. But that 5 game series sweep, while I agree put the dagger in the Sox and clinched a division title for the Yankees, will not matter squat unless they win a title this year. Anything else is a huge disappointment at this point.
They dont have the Red Sox to beat in the playoffs, so nothing short of a Yankee WS title will be good enough for Yankee fans.
You can only rest on that 5 game sweep for so long. Now its time to play against teams who didnt give up like the very disappointing Red Sox.
Good luck. I'm with Scuds in that I dont like the way the post season sets up for them.
