    has been a good series for once. What was once looking like just another sweep has now turned into a chance to make history. I'll be watching tonight. Go Red Sox.

    Overrated??

    You mean like last year's overrated series that was won on a walkoff homer in the 11th inning of the 7th game?

    yep. I figured by looking at the title of this thread it was going to be about Auburn-Alabama.

    OK. How's it overrated? Name another baseball rivalry that's as intense. Cubs-cards and Giants-Dodgers are a distant second and third.

    there are no good baseball rivalries. they play each other way too many times. MLB needs to cut the games in half. they played each other 32 focking times this year.

    I think that's why I'm not a bigger fan than I am. I mean in baseball the teams play almost every day. Unlike football they play once a week and every game is so important. In baseball you can just kind of forget about it for a month and check the standings and then check back again a few weeks later.
