Somehow, I did not expect that my blood pressure would spike every time they showed Aaron Boone during this series. I suppose I should have, since my primary reaction to 2003 was rage, but I didn't. I HATE HIM.

My first reaction, I was outside trying to calm down, and I heard the cheers from the Yankee fans(I could peer inside somebody's room to see what was going on), I looked up to teh sky and said "Fuck you!" to nobody in particular. That walk from outside to inside w/ all teh Yankee fans around was crap. I kept just wondering why them? They were a great team with such great characters. And why Tim Wakefield? Those questions were answered the next year.

Funny thing--the end of Game 3 of the ALCS was after midnight on October 17, 2004...the one year anniversary of Aaron Boone. The last heartache. And also, the Red Sox started their comeback when the clock stuck midnight on October 18, 2004....a new day.

Well, technically, my first reaction was shock so total that I seriously thought I didn't mind that much: "Oh, okay, bedtime."

And when I woke up, I thought, "Yankees," and was instantly furious. I never got around to the being sad part, just anger, followed by acceptance, followed by, "Wait, who's this Schilling guy everyone's so excited about?" Heh.

I didn't sleep afterwards, at least till 4am or so. I said before I went to sleep "Fuck you Grady" I mean the Red Sox were never ever cursed...they had shit luck AND sometimes they just weren't the better. team. This time was just STUPID STUPID management. That's what pisses me off mostly.
