[quote=Drago;666694]I'm not worried about The Reds...Man U doesn't scare me. Liverpool usually plays up to a challenge (or down in the case of Stoke).
It had been 86 years for the Red Sox who not only LOST but lost with flying colors. They would make it to the World Series a couple times and lose in 7 games in 1975 and 1986....1986 was a horrible time, Bill Buckner a guy with close to Hall of Fame stats ended up making an error that eventually cost them the series (actually the bullpen blew the series, Buckner's play just added salt to the wound). The Red Sox were THE choke artists of pro sports in America UNTIL in 2004 down 3 games to the hated New York Yankees and after being destroyed 19-8 AT HOME the Red Sox clawed their way back not only to win 4 straight games and take the ALCS but they went on to win 4 more to SWEEP the Cards in the World Series. Also they did about the same thing in 2007 this time sweeping the Rockies in the World Series.
Oh and the YANKEES are the biggest choke artists of all sports history

....So when I say I am a FAN, I mean I'll follow teams through the depths of hell and back because it's times like 2004 that make it all worth while.
