I know there's already a topic up about the series, but all that commentary was before the Sox won three in a row to take it to game 7. With said game on the horizon for tonight, Who's your pick?
Edit: GO SOX

P.P.S. I now realise that it is possible that you have mistaken Holland for Iraq as neither have weapons of mass destruction.

I'm all for the Red Sox.....but in all honesty, if the yankees pull it together, it's gonna be a rough game for the red sox.

In order to win, not only would the Red Sox have to break the curse, but they would also have to break the streak of how no team in major US pro sports* has ever come back from 0-3 to win a playoff series.
*Fuck hockey. They're not a major sport any more.

Baseball is largely about momentum. Also, thinking positive is sooo big, and no other team does that like the Red Sox. Red Sox has the pitching staff and bats to go along with their amazing attitude... therfore they will win tonight. Hopefully Lowe will have his stuff, which I'm sure he will juding by his preformence as a reliver a few days ago. I am feeling great about tonight. Lets go, Sox! [wild ranting] BIG PAPI!!! LOOK AT HIS EFFECTS ON PEOPLE!!! BIG PIPITIS!! http://www.kerz187.com/Pictures/Senior%20Pic.JPG -----> http://www.kerz187.com/Pictures/bigpapi.jpg[/wild ranting]

It will be a good game, but the Sox can't take this one. Maybe next year they will play the Mets instead. Then they will win.

Yes, no team has ever come back from a 0-3 deficit. But, at the same time, no other team has ever brought 0-3 up to 3-3.
As Shilling's shirt says, "Why noy us?"
GO SOX!

From a realistic viewpoint, people can't just keep saying the Sox are going to ride momentum. Very few teams pull their shit together when they're in trouble like the Red Sox, but the same is true of the Yankees. Tonight's game is going to be very, very tough on both teams.
For what it's worth, the Sox bull pen got a bunch of rest last night. Embree, Timlin, and Myers will be out in force today. I'm not sure how I feel about Lowe starting on not quite enough rest, but I think he's really going to pull his shit together, just like his last start. But I suppose he's better rested than Wakefield, anyway.
From a Sox fan standpoint, there is absolutely no way the Sox lose this game. I hope.
