JustaBill 0 #1 October 28, 2004 Does anyone else feel a little let down by the Series? I mean after all the great ball played throughout the playoffs, to have one team completely dominate the other is kind of a bummer. After the 2 LCS's I was really expecting a classic series, not a 4 game quickie that wasn't ever close. Congrats to Boston none the less, I was just hoping for more of a chase.------------------------------------------------ I've done so much, with so little, for so long I'm now expected to do everything with nothing forever Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pleifer 0 #2 October 28, 2004 I once heard that to just break even showing the world series... they had to play 5 games... So I bet Fox is a bit let down too. but yea, kinda boring _________________________________________ The Angel of Duh has spoke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

usedtajump 1 #6 October 28, 2004 Although I'm glad Boston finally won a World Series, it was pretty dissapointing from a drama standpoint. Was hoping it would at least go to six games and have Boston win at home. Can't believe St. Louis just layed down like they did. Also can't believe that professional athletes, on both teams, put on such an amature show with all the fielding errors, base running screw ups and total lack of hitting on St. Louis' part.The older I get the less I care who I piss off.

JustaBill 0 #7 October 28, 2004 It's basically just the US, there is a couple (now only 1 I think) teams in Canada and all the foreign born players, but it's all American teams. Don't ask me why they call it "The World Series" but they do------------------------------------------------ I've done so much, with so little, for so long I'm now expected to do everything with nothing forever Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustaBill 0 #9 October 28, 2004 Yep there was some pretty sloppy play. My 8 yr olds little league team looked better than the pros at some points. I would have liked to have seen at least 6 games too. I just really thought it would be more of a fight, but I guess it'd be hard to top the two LCS's.------------------------------------------------ I've done so much, with so little, for so long I'm now expected to do everything with nothing forever Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KolinskyDC 0 #12 October 28, 2004 A little boring, maybe. A letdown??? No way in hell!!! And you really could not have gotten more of a classic series, we did something that has never been done x 2!!!! Winning the ALCS was all the excitement and anxiety that this Red Sox fan needed, had no problem watching the Red Sox blow away the Cardinals in a sweep. Red Sox won the friggin World Series!!! WoooooooooooHoooooooooo!!!!! Melissa "May the best of your past be the worst of your future" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
