1978 REMEMBERED
July 5, 2008

     Okay folks back in 1978 the Yankees came in to Fenway Park and took 4 straight games in dramatic and downright embarrassing fashion.  (I was only five at the time so I don't remember it but there are people who can never forget it)

     So this weekend we have an opportunity to exact a little revenge.  Today is Masterson vs Mussina and tomorrow is Wakie vs Jaba (spelled it that way on purpose).  I like to take things game by game but we can definitely take these next two.  Yeah I know this was thirty years ago but just like Ricardo Montalban said in Wrath of Khan; "Revenge is a dish that is best served cold".  Let's win these two games for Yaz, Remy, Rooster, Dewey, Rice, and company!!

     Keep the Faith; 14/09!

God,that was awful to go through!!! This is why 1978 is also a very big,big part of the Red Sox/Skankee lore.About the saying "History will repeat itself"...I'm with Hoolie...see me after the series,then we'll talk. LGRS!!!!!!!!!

Sounds good to me. During the rain delay yesterday, since I live in Yankee-land, they (the YES network) showed the 1978 playoff game, and I simply couldn't watch. I was seven-and-a-half-months pregnant and almost had a premature delivery on that day. Today we have to listen to the insufferable Joe Buck and Time "I-Hate-The-Red-Sox" McCarver (McCarver has hated the Sox since he was the St. Louis catcher in the 1967 World Series). I hate these late-afternoon Saturday Fox games because I have to leave at 5 pm to go to work!! ...View More
