freak_alien, I understand why shirish bro and other Red Sox fans are rooting against NY Yankees. Red Sox and Other teams in AL East Division don't get the chance to win the Division that often. I believe this is the first time Red Sox are contending for 1st place since shirish dai started to follow baseball. And he doesn't know when Red Sox may contend for AL East Crown again so it's understandable looking forward to this weekend series............
