Round 1: Yankees v. Red Sox

Ah. It is finally here. Let the madness begin. Let every single New England paper publish Yankee/Red Sox stories on every page with pictures and predictions. Let the BooBirds come out from the woodworks and join in chorus once ARod steps to the plate. I can hear it now.....

I am going to go ahead and admit it, I am biased. Yes, I know it comes as a shock to you, but it's true. I am a diehard Yankees fan and I will take all of the ridicule that you want to throw at me. I don't care. It is the passion that I have had with me from the moment I picked up my first baseball and began hearing story after story about Gehrig, Mantle, Ruth and I was hooked. When it comes to tradition in sports, I can never resist it.

As for the 2007 MLB season, in my opinion, it hasn't truly started until the first Yankees/BoSox series. Well, here it is. I hope all of you are ready for every single newscast to be flooded with stories, theories, and overanalyzation that you have never seen before.

As for my prediction (may I remind you, I am biased): I believe the Boston faithful will be seeing a lot of this tonight:





Enjoy. Go Yanks.

3 game sweep. That does a lot of good in the standings.
