Red Sox Nation is that their fans are hard-core

It's the day after the last day of the world series.(I had planned to title this series “It's the end of the world as we know it” but ESPN beat me to it…) Pretty soon, it will sink in 138 days until Opening Day.I can imagine the hysterical bedlam that replica Cartier w10110t2 watch must exist in Red Sox Nation.One interesting thing?I saw Fox and ESPN cameras panned the crowds in Boston and a sizeable number of the Sox fans were children, teens and young adults.I keep reading that baseball does not “appeal to the young” and is dying, blah, blah, blah.Not in Boston, fer sher.

The great thing about Red Sox Nation is that their fans are hard-core thru horrible years as well as good.Here in Stro Land, this year, a lot of people caught Astro fever and I hope that our new fans will become as addicted and hard core as Sox fans.I can imagine the humiliated disgust that must exist in Cardinals Nation.This nation has a fan base as hard-core and large as the RedSox, just less, uh, noisy, yeah, noisy.I had said to David Pinto that this replica Cartier w3107255 watch team lost because it didn't do the “little things” (pitching, hitting, running.)Shall I start the autopsy on the Cardinal Corpse?1) pitching well, let me tell you who did NOT suck- Al Reyes 1.1 IP, NO inherited runners scored- Izzy 2 IP inherited 2 runners with no outs, walked one and stranded them all.- Ray King 1.1 IP, no inherited runners scored.

no runs.- middle suck Danny Haren, who let 2 inherited runners score, but then pitched an additional 4 innings with no runs.Starters didn't throw strikes much.When they did, they were in the middle of the plate.And that's being kind.VERY kind.-Williams 2.1 IP 7 ER (Haren let 2 of the inherited runners score) replica Cartier w62005v1 watch (pitcher x 3) 121p -58s 63b (don't think that he did well sox stranded 11 runners left bases loaded twice)Hitting (like, WHAT hitting?) Rolen was ofer the series with an RBI on a sac fly.Pujols hit .333, but didn't have a single RBI because he left 6 RISP.Edmonds was 1 fer the series with a bunt single and NO RBIs.
