How we see it goin' down
The moment has finally come, the final series of the season. In 3 very long days, we will put an end to this season and forget about it immediately. I have said on numerous occasions that I wouldn't mind if the Sox lost their remaining games this season. I am going to retract that statement. I would love to see the Red Sox go for the long shot, and win 2 to possibly make the Yankees the wild card team. Or, go for the long, long shot and sweep the Yankees to end on a very good note. How great would it be to see New York lose a one-and-done? That would make pain of this season that much easier to handle. I am going for the long shot and go with 2 wins for the Sox.
