... sweeeeeeep!......

Don't mean to rub it in for any Yankees fans on cblog, but, as an old-fashioned Red Sox fan, I get a certain enjoyment out of seeing the other guy lose.

Yup, now we just have to hope that they can't move Arod.  Keep them tied up for a while.

Yeah, that's pretty much all that needs to be said.

As a Red Sox fan, I love seeing the Yankees lose in a sweep.  However, that was the highlight of this baseball season.  It certainly beats cheering the fact that we gave away our best hitter to shed two terrible contracts.

I have a feeling that next season, we both could be glad that we aren't the "other team's" fan.

Love seeing teams like the Tigers, A's and Baltimore succeed. I guess that that's the consolation that we hapless Yank/Sox fans can take from this season.

Also proves the adage that the team that get's hot at the right time wins in the playoffs (see NYG both Super Bowls, Sox in '04, etc, etc, etc)which makes sports so interesting/frustrating.

I hear that. It was a disaster of a season for the Red Sox. But that's been the modal type of season over the past century.

Not to rain on everyone's parade, but I wish my team made it to the ALCS, and could point to having their leader lost for the season as part of the reason they were swept.

All of my college buddies who are Yankees are shut up for the year now so I'm happy.  Don't have to hear anymore of their nonsense.

I'm glad because it means that baseball is almost over, does that count too?  :P

So this must be how the Lakers fans feel the few times every decade when they don't make the Finals.

I find it hilarious that the Yankees are somehow an abject failure when they were in the ALCS.

Oh and A-Rod is the worst thing ever when a short 3 years ago he carried them to a World Series title. The narrative around the Yankees is ridiculous as always.
