    Yanks won 3rd Game 19-8. Red Sox gave every team that ever gets down 3-0 in a series while being totally dominated some hope. We need a spark, similar to when a guy named Zack Randolph came off the bench vs Dallas in 2003. Maybe CJ can be that guy. The bench needs scoring, and he can fill it up. It's a reach, but nobody thought Z-Bo was capable of doing what he did either.

    Well, I got the doubled up part right on the score. lol.

    Yeah. It's a lot easier for it to happen in baseball with no clock. Basketball you have SO many factors at play.

    I will believe when I see Aldridge show up. Until he can dominate the post, we have zero shot at winning.

    This is true. It's not so much that he's staying out of the post, it's that he can't even make a layup or a dunk in this series. It's almost like he has a case of the nerves, or he's pressing.

    Um you have to believe BEFORE it happens. Anyone can believe after it happens. There's nothing to "believe" anymore. It's right in front of your face.

    Truth. Hebrews 11:1--"Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen."

    I highly recommend Square Mile, its a Portland product. The have a "hopped" version that ties down the sweetness a bit without being sour.
