WAS IT ALL A DREAM?
How many Red Sox and Yankees fans are asking themselves that very question this morning? What a series. The time Boston finally gets the best of New York is in a series when they were down 3 games to 0. It really is remarkable. But, as I said when the series was at 3-1, if any group of players would be unphased by what had happened so far in the series, it was this Boston group. Now give-way to the curse of A-Rod. Will ALEX RODRIGUEZ's bush-league arm-flailing slap at BRONSON ARROYO spell 100-odd years of bad luck for the Yankees? Probably not, but it's interesting to think about.

In regards to Boston, if they lose in the World Series this improbable comeback won't really mean too much.

What happens to the Yankees now? Does BIG STEIN go crazy and fire BRIAN CASHMAN? Does he fire JOE TORRE? Do they trade away some of their players that slumped this year? JAVIER VAZQUEZ? JASON GIAMBI? KEVIN BROWN? It will be interesting to see how New York reacts to finally losing to the Yankees.
